Bring It To The Heartland! That is the theme of 109th Grey Cup in Regina this weekend. There is definitely a country music leaning in the artists playing at half-time and at the festival. The playlist this week is a Grey Cup/football/sport theme and with tracks from some of the artists playing at the festival this year. 2022 Grey Cup Festival info can be found here.
The 109th Grey Cup will be played to decide the Canadian Football League (CFL) championship for the 2022 season. The game is scheduled to be played on November 20, 2022, at Mosaic Stadium in Regina, Saskatchewan.[4] This will mark the fourth time the game will be held in Regina, and the first to be held at the new Mosaic Stadium as opposed to Taylor Field. The West Division champion Winnipeg Blue Bombers will face the East Division champion Toronto Argonauts.
The game was originally awarded to be played in the 2020 season as the 108th Grey Cup. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it was announced in May 2020 that the festivities in Regina had been cancelled, and that the game’s venue would have been decided by home advantage if played. Regina was tentatively awarded the 110th Grey Cup in 2022. Under a hub city model, the CFL had planned to play the entire 2020 season in Winnipeg. However, the CFL cancelled the 2020 season entirely in August 2020, effectively making the 2022 Grey Cup the 109th edition. (Source: Wikipedia)
