The 1964 Macdonald Brier, the Canadian men's national curling championship, was held from March 4 to 8, 1964 at the Charlottetown Forum in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island. A total of 13,573 fans attended the event, which was the smallest attended Brier since 1952. To date, this is the only time that PEI has hosted a Brier.
Team British Columbia, skipped by Lyall Dagg, captured the Brier Tankard by finishing round robin play with a 9–1 record. This was the second time in which BC had won the Brier, with their previous championship having been in 1948.
Dagg and his rink would go onto represent Canada in the 1964 Scotch Cup, which they won.
