The 2025 World Men's Curling Championship (66th) (branded as the 2025 BKT Tires World Men's Curling Championship for sponsorship reasons) will be held from March 29 to April 6 at Mosaic Place in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, Canada.[1] It will be the fourth World Men's Championship held in Saskatchewan and the third World Championship held in Moose Jaw, succeeding the 1979 World Junior Curling Championships and the 1983 Pioneer Life World Women's Curling Championship.[2]

The format for the Championship will feature a thirteen team round robin. The top six teams will qualify for the playoff round where the top two teams received a bye while the remaining four played in the qualification round to qualify for the semifinals.[3]
