Home Game - singular and in name only. It's one game in each city but still against the host team.

During the regular season, the Argonauts will play one home game in each of Hamilton Stadium, Mosaic Stadium in Regina and Princess Auto Stadium in Winnipeg, against the host teams

Argos, Lions to play select home games away from BMO Field, BC Place Stadium in 2026 - CFL.ca

The CFL announced Friday that the Argonauts will play home games at Hamilton Stadium, Mosaic Stadium in Regina and Winnipeg's Princess Auto Stadium against the host teams during the World Cup.

 

The Lions will relocate for two home games, with the club planning to announce those details at a later time.

it says "against the host teams"... so I think we just play Tor in Winnipeg twice next year instead of a home and home... which doesn't really make sense... you'd think it would be a neutral site game in fairness to the Argos 

For example they could play their "home" game against Sask in Winnipeg... and their "home" game against Wpg in Regina... this would also include the added benefit that the Wpg and Sask fans likely would not cheer for their rival giving the Argos something of a home field advantage...

Who gets the revenue for the Argos/Bombers game?

I will absolutely try to make it to those games.

I wonder if they will do a deal for Season Ticket Holders

No deal for STH - just got an email, it's been automatically added at the same rate as any other game but we have the option to opt out of that one game:

Additional Home Game added in 2026 against the Argos!

The Blue Bombers’ scheduled away game in Toronto for the 2026 season will instead be played at Princess Auto Stadium, as BMO Field will be unavailable while hosting the FIFA World Cup. If you wish to opt out of this game please contact your Fan Services representative by January 31. If you have a parking pass or park & ride pass, the additional pass has been added for the game.

The draw back of course.... how many people in winnipeg would pay to watch the argos and riders? Similarly how many gappers gonna shell out to watch the argos and Bombers?

Ah that makes sense because it is against the Bombers.

I was thinking they would keep the Road/Home split at 9, but because they are playing the Bombers they essentially have 10 home games.

Would have been neat to see the Argos play another team.
