Turin to host 2026 CEV Volleyball Champions League final

Turin will host the final tournament of the CEV Volleyball Champions League on May 16 and 17, 2026.

The Final Four of the highest quality European club volleyball competition will be played at the "Inalpi Arena", with the organizational cooperation of the European Volleyball Confederation (CEV), the Italian Volleyball Federation (FIPAV) and local authorities.

The decision to host was made based on the experience of the Champions League Super Final, which this impressive building hosted in 2023.

The Inalpi Arena and Turin have been recognized for years as hosts of major sporting events, including the 2006 Winter Olympics, the ATP Tennis Finals, the 2018 Volleyball World Championship finals, and the 2023 Champions League Super Final, when the titles were won by Kecioren Kozle and VakifBank Istanbul.

The final tournament in Turin will feature the four best teams in Europe, competing for the CEV Champions League trophy. Among the candidates for a place in F4 is the current champion Perugia, who finished the group stage of the competition undefeated.

CEV President Roko Sikirić recalled the experience from the previous final tournament in Turin.

I believe we all share very fond memories of the extremely successful Super Finals held in Turin in 2023. We want to build on that experience to organize another Final Four and provide a quality experience for the teams, fans and all participants. I am grateful to the Italian Volleyball Federation and the local authorities for their support in the realization of this demanding project, said Sikirić.

The President of the Italian Volleyball Federation, Giuseppe Manfredi, emphasized that the decision to organize the final tournament was made in cooperation with the CEV, with an emphasis on the Inalpi Arena's previous experience in organizing major domestic and international competitions.

Details regarding ticket sales and additional organizational information will be announced later.
