The 2026 SaskTel Tankard, the provincial men's curling championship for Saskatchewan, was held from January 5 to 11 at the CN Community Centre in Melville, Saskatchewan.[1] The winning Kelly Knapp rink represented Saskatchewan at the 2026 Montana's Brier in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador.[2] The event was held in conjunction with the 2026 Bunge Prairie Pinnacle, the provincial women's championship.

Having finished third on the CTRS standings for the 2024–25 season, Team Mike McEwen earned an automatic berth at the national championship. This meant Saskatchewan would qualify two teams for the Brier.[3]
