2025 European Athletics Indoor Championships

The 2025 European Athletics Indoor Championships were held from 6 to 9 March 2025 at the Omnisport Apeldoorn arena in Apeldoorn, Netherlands. The four-day competition features thirteen men's, thirteen women's and one mixed athletics events over three morning and four afternoon sessions.

It is the 38th edition of the European Athletics Indoor Championships and the third time that the Netherlands has staged the continent's top indoor competition in athletics after Rotterdam 1973 and The Hague 1989. It is also the third time in a decade that the country has hosted a major European Athletics event after the outdoor 2016 European Athletics Championships in Amsterdam and 2018 European Cross Country Championships in Tilburg.

On 6 May 2022, the European Athletic Association (EAA) chose Apeldoorn at its 164th Council Meeting held in Munich. The organization of the event is a partnership of local athletics clubs, the municipality of Apeldoorn, the Province of Gelderland, TIG Sports and the Royal Dutch Athletics Federation (Atletiekunie). In March 2024, former athlete Dafne Schippers was appointed tournament director.

All times are local (UTC+1).
