From the brewery to the curling club, we’re bringing people together to watch Olympic curling. Join us as we cheer on Team USA — featuring two born-and-raised GCC curlers, Luc Violette and Ben Richardson. These parties are a great way to introduce your friends to the sport!
Founded in 1961, the Granite Curling Club (GCC) of Seattle is home to curlers of all abilities, including more national champions than any other club in the USA.
The "regular season" is October through March each year, and the "spring season" with reduced activities is April through June; there is no curling in July and August. During the regular and spring seasons, there are many Leagues, Bonspiels (competitions), and Open Houses. You're welcome to come out and participate, compete, or just watch the action.
Leagues run from late Sept 2025 through April 2026. Registration opens Aug 27 at 6 pm.
