What was Italy’s total medal count at the 2026 European Athletics Championships in Birmingham?

The story behind the answer

Italy won 22 medals at the 2026 European Athletics Championships in Birmingham.

Its medal haul consisted of 10 gold medals, six silver medals, and six bronze medals. That combination placed Italy first in the final medal table, ahead of Great Britain and Northern Ireland with 19 medals and Germany with 21.

Italy’s titles came across track, field, and race walking. The champions included Nadia Battocletti, who won both the women’s 5,000 and 10,000 metres, as well as Massimo Stano in the men’s marathon race walk and Sofia Fiorini in the women’s marathon race walk.

Medal-table rankings are ordered primarily by gold medals, then silver and bronze when nations are tied. Italy therefore led not only in total medals but also in gold medals, finishing with the most successful overall campaign in Birmingham.
