The U.S. Figure Skating Championships are set to be hosted in St. Louis, marking the final national competition before the 2026 Milan Olympics.
On Monday, U.S. Figure Skating confirmed that the event will occur from January 5 to January 11 at the Enterprise Center.
As is customary, this championship will serve as the last opportunity for skaters to qualify for the Olympic team.

St. Louis last welcomed the U.S. championships in 2006, a notable year when stars like Sasha Cohen and Johnny Weir clinched titles.
Ahead of this, the national championships scheduled for January will take place in Wichita, Kansas.
This event is critical in determining the U.S. team for the upcoming world championships, which are the final series of international competitions before the Olympics.
The 2025 World Championships will be held in Boston in March.

With excitement building, the skating community looks forward to these prestigious events, as they can significantly impact team selections and athlete performances leading up to the Winter Games.
The choice of St. Louis and the upcoming competitions underlines the ongoing preparations and enthusiasm surrounding figure skating on the path to the 2026 Olympics.
