The 2023 event was dominated by the international field, with only four Canadian teams qualifying for the fifteen total playoff spots across the two events. In the men's final, Ross Whyte and his team won their first event after two previous runner-up finishes at the 2023 Euro Super Series and the 2023 Stu Sells Oakville Tankard, stealing one in an extra end against Niklas Edin. On the women's side, four-time reigning world champions Silvana Tirinzoni's Swiss rink continued their dominance with an undefeated 7–0 run to win the event, defeating the previously undefeated Sayaka Yoshimura rink, led by Yuna Kotani in the final.
