The Stu Sells Brantford NISSAN Classic is a curling tournament or bonspiel part of the men's and women's curling tour. The event existed exclusively on the Ontario Curling Tour until 2017, before it was added as a WCT event for 2018 and 2019. It was also a WCT event in 1996.[2] The event is an annual event held at the end of November and the beginning of December. The event took place at the Brant Curling Club in Brantford, Ontario until 2017. It was moved to the Paris Curling Club in Paris, Ontario in 2018 and then the Brantford Golf & Country Club for 2022. Following the closure of curling operations and the Golf and Country Club, the event moved back to the Brant Curling Club in 2024.

A women's event was held in 2016 and did not return until 2022.
