Grey Cup Proceeds

Does anyone know how the revenues (ticket sales) for the cup are allocated? Does the team hosting the cup receive any revenue streams other than ticket sales etc.?

Yes I believe they do. Especially all the parties and as such.

Why do you care?

Well I care cause I don't know how the revenue splits work and I was curious. And the more the Bombers make off the cup the more they might have to spend on 2026 talent!

You'll find out when they release the 2025 financials next year.

Teams pay the league to host the Grey Cup and then the team keeps all the profit.

If my memory is correct, teams tend to make at least a few million from hosting the Cup.

Ya, I think it was the SSK financials the other year that said they made an extra $1M from the cup.

I would expect WFC can do even better. Wouldn't be surprised if we make $1.5-$2M, especially since the green fans will make sure the gameday turnout will be full.
