The 2026 Toronto Argonauts season is the 68th season for the team in the Canadian Football League (CFL) and their 153rd year of existence. The Argonauts improved upon their 5–13 record from 2025 and qualified for the playoffs following their week 14 victory over the Edmonton Elks. The team will attempt to win the 20th Grey Cup championship in franchise history. The Argonauts played three "home" games outside of Toronto due to the 2026 FIFA World Cup games being hosted by BMO Field from June 12, 2026, to July 2, 2026.
The 2026 CFL season is the first season for Mike Miller as head coach after former head coach Ryan Dinwiddie left to join the Ottawa Redblacks. This is the seventh season for Michael Clemons as general manager.
