The 2026 European Speed Skating Championships took place from 9 to 11 January 2026, at the Ice Arena in Tomaszów Mazowiecki, Poland.
Damian Zurek of Poland and Ragne Wiklund from Norway won two individual gold medals each.[2][3]
The proximity of the 2026 Winter Olympics affected the list of participants. The Netherlands was mostly represented by skaters who are not in the Olympic selection.[4] Germany would make a final selection based on performance at the European Championships.[5] The final entry list had 121 competitors from 19 nations.[6]
Since 2017, the format in even years is a single distance championship in which the winner of each distance earns the title of European champion.
All times are local (UTC+1).
