The 2025 European Athletics Indoor Championships will be held from 6 to 9 March 2025 at the Omnisport Apeldoorn arena in Apeldoorn, Netherlands. The four-day competition will feature thirteen men's and thirteen women's athletics events over three morning and four afternoon sessions.[1]

It will be the 38th edition[citation needed] of the European Athletics Indoor Championships and it will be the third time that the Netherlands will have staged the continent's top indoor competition in athletics after Rotterdam 1973 and The Hague 1989. It will be also the third time in a decade that the country will host a major European Athletics event after the outdoor 2016 European Athletics Championships in Amsterdam and 2018 European Cross Country Championships in Tilburg.[1]

On 6 May 2022, the European Athletic Association (EAA) chose Apeldoorn at its 164th Council Meeting held in Munich.[2] 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).[3] In March 2024, former athlete Dafne Schippers was appointed tournament director.[4]
