The 2026 Crown Royal Players' Championship was held from January 6 to 11 at the Southeast Event Centre in Steinbach, Manitoba. It was the fifth and final Grand Slam event of the 2025–26 curling season.

In a change of timing from previous seasons, the Players' Championship was moved from April to January to close out the Grand Slam season ahead of the 2026 Winter Olympics. The Mattamy Athletic Centre in Toronto, which usually hosts the event, will instead host the inaugural season of the Rock League April 6–12.
