The 2013 European Masters were held from April 17 to 20 at the Sports Center Lerchenfeld in St. Gallen, Switzerland as part of the 2012–13 World Curling Tour. It was the final event on the Curling Champions Tour (CCT) of Europe, and featured the top teams from the CCT rankings.

Teams

The teams for the European Masters were invited based on their top-ten finishes in the Curling Champions Tour ranking list for the 2012–13 season, with the exception of Mark Dacey's Canadian team, who were a special invite. The top-ranked teams skipped by Niklas Edin and Thomas Ulsrud declined their invitations due to their participation in the 2013 Players' Championship, which ran at the same time as the European Masters.
