The 2026 Bunge Championship, the provincial men's curling championship for Manitoba was held from February 4 to 8 at the Selkirk Recreation Complex in Selkirk, Manitoba.[1] The winning Braden Calvert rink will represent Manitoba at the 2026 Montana's Brier in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador.[2]

After Viterra's successful merger with Bunge, Bunge became the official sponsor of the men's provincial championships as Viterra previously was the sponsor since 2016.[3]

Having finished second on the CTRS standings for the 2024–25 season, Team Matt Dunstone earned an automatic berth at the national championship. This means Manitoba will qualify two teams for the Brier.[4]

The format of the men's provincial championships was significantly modified for this event compared to previous editions. The following changes were made beginning with this year's event:[3]

  • The number of teams qualifying for the event was reduced from 32 to 24. This marks the first time since 1965 that the total number of teams has not been 32 (excluding 2022 due to the COVID-19 pandemic).[5]
  • The event will now be a triple knockout instead of a double knockout
  • Six teams (two from each bracket) instead of eight will advance to the championship round
  • The championship round will now consist of two (2) three team page playoff brackets. The winners of both the A and B brackets will play in the Page 1v2 qualifier. The loser of the 1v2 qualifier will play the C bracket winner in the Page 3v4 qualifier.
