2026 Italian Artistic Gymnastics Championships

Overview

The Italian National Artistic Gymnastics Championships were held in Meda from 24–26 July 2026, serving as a key qualifier for the upcoming European Championships in Zagreb. The competition featured top male and female athletes, including past champions and rising stars such as Giulia Perotti, Asia D’Amato, and Manila Esposito, with coaches and federation officials highlighting growing sponsor support.

On the women's side, 17-year-old July Marano of Ginnastica Civitavecchia captured the absolute title with a combined score of 106.700, edging out defending champion Giulia Perotti and Anthea Sisio. Marano’s victory marks the 86th edition of the event, which dates back to 1937, and positions her as a likely selection for the European Championships later in August.

Following the national championships, Italian gymnasts saw success at the 2026 European Championships in Zagreb. Elisa Iorio won a silver medal on the uneven bars despite recovering from her third injury, while 16-year-old Giulia Perotti secured a bronze medal on the same apparatus, marking her first major senior medal. In rhythmic gymnastics, Sofia Raffaeli earned a silver medal with the hoop at the 2026 World Championships in Frankfurt, Germany.
