Figure skating at the 2026 Winter Olympics will be held at the Milano Ice Skate Arena in Milan, Italy. The five events will take place between 6 and 19 February 2026.[1]

A total of 142 quota spots were distributed to figure skating, a decline of two from the 2022 Olympic Winter Games.[2]

A total of five events will be contested: one for men, one for women, and three mixed.[1]

Qualification

A total of 142 quota spots are available to athletes to compete at the games. A maximum of 18 athletes can be entered by a National Olympic Committee (NOC), with a maximum of 9 men or 9 women. There is also an "Additional Athletes Quota" which allows up to a maximum of 5 more total skaters, bringing the potential total to 147. The host (Italy) is the priority for these additional places so that if they have met minimum standards they may have an entry in each event, other than the team event. If unused, these five quotas can be used to qualify nations for the team event if they only need an entry in one more discipline.[3]

Quota spots were awarded to NOCs based on placements at the 2025 World Figure Skating Championships and the ISU Skate to Milano qualifier.[2]

All times are in local time (UTC+1), according to the official schedule correct as of December 2025.[1]
