At the team leader´s conference in Madrid in 2023, the Dutch city of Amsterdam was chosen to host the Euro Handball Pride Championship (EHPC) of 2026.

The championship will be hosted by the Dutch Diversity Dynamos and supported by Amsterdam’s Sport Pride Foundation and the Dutch Handball Federation (NHV). It will be an official part of the EuroPride and WorldPride 2026. Sicco den Hollander will be representing the organization in EHPC´s Reference Group for the upcoming years.

Even though the match dates have yet to be established, we can already disclose that EHPC 2026 will take place in the last week of July 2026 (Monday 27 till Friday 31). This means all participants will have a chance to visit the world famous Canal Parade on Saturday 1 August right after the new champions have been adorned.

Please stay tuned for more news through our channels Euro Handball Pride Championship, Dutch Diversity Dynamos, NHV, and Sport Pride Foundation.

We’re looking forward to welcoming you to Amsterdam for some wonderful days of pride, handball, diversity and inclusion, tulips, cheese, and stroopwafels!!
