Canadian Premier League soccer match between HFX Wanderers FC and Vancouver FC at The Wanderers Grounds.
HFX Wanderers FC take on Vancouver FC at The Wanderers Grounds on Saturday, August 22, 2026. It's a Canadian Premier League match, the professional soccer league the Wanderers have been a part of since they launched in 2018.
If you're new to the club, here's a bit of the run they've had. They've finished in the top half of the table three times, with a club-best third-place finish in 2023. They also made back-to-back quarterfinal appearances in the Canadian Championship in 2021 and 2022. Over the years, the roster has produced two Golden Boot winners, a CPL Player of the Year, and a Coach of the Year, and they've picked up nominations for Goalkeeper and Defender of the Year too. On the pitch, their main rivalries are with Atlético Ottawa and Pacific FC.
The match is at The Wanderers Grounds, 5819 Sackville Street, on the Halifax Common. Fans call it 'The Kitchen'. It's a 6,500-seat stadium on Canada's oldest urban park, and the site has hosted sporting events for more than a century before it was renovated in 2018 into a professional soccer stadium. Between 2021 and 2023, the Wanderers led the CPL in attendance for three straight seasons, so it's usually a good crowd.
