The 2026 Toronto Argonauts season is scheduled to be the 68th season for the team in the Canadian Football League and their 153rd year of existence. The Argonauts will attempt to improve upon their 5–13 record from 2025, qualify for the playoffs following a one-year absence, and win the 20th Grey Cup championship in franchise history. The Argonauts will play three home games outside of Toronto due to the 2026 FIFA World Cup games being hosted by BMO Field from June 12, 2026, to July 2, 2026.
The 2026 CFL season is scheduled to be the first season for Mike Miller as head coach after former head coach Ryan Dinwiddie left to join the Ottawa Redblacks.[1][2] This will be the seventh season for Michael Clemons as general manager.[3]
