The 1973 Macdonald Lassies Championship, the Canadian women's curling championship was held February 26 to March 2 at the Charlottetown Curling Club in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island.
Manitoba and Saskatchewan both finished round robin play tied for first with 8âÂÂ1 records, necessitating a tiebreaker playoff between the two teams.

Nova Scotia only scored 37 points, setting a then-record for fewest points scored in a single tournament. This broke the previous mark of 43 also set by Nova Scotia in .
