Volleyball fans are in for a treat as Italy gets ready to welcome the CEV EuroVolley 2026 Men. The tournament will light up Naples, Modena, Turin, and Milan from September 10 to 27, 2026, with the grand finale in Milan deciding not only the European champions but also who qualifies for the Los Angeles 2028 Olympics.
The journey begins in Naples, where the opening match will be staged at the breathtaking Piazza del Plebiscito in a specially built open-air arena. For the city, it’s a EuroVolley debut that promises a one-of-a-kind atmosphere.
The action then shifts to Modena’s PalaPanini, known as the beating heart of Italian Volleyball. Fans can expect the knockout rounds to bring high drama in Turin’s Palavela Arena, before the spotlight moves to Milan’s futuristic Arena Santa Giulia, where the semifinals and finals will crown Europe’s best.
CEV President Roko Sikirić praised Italy’s experience and passion, calling the country “the perfect stage” for EuroVolley. Italian Volleyball Federation President Giuseppe Manfredi added, “With these four cities, we’re combining history, tradition, and innovation to deliver an unforgettable tournament.”
Italy has hosted the championship many times, but with iconic venues, a festival-like atmosphere, and Olympic stakes on the line, EuroVolley 2026 is shaping up to be one of the most memorable editions yet.
