The third event of the 2026 JOOLA Europe Youth Series will take place in Albufeira, Portugal, from 21 to 25 May 2026, following a change in the original calendar.
On 28 January 2026, the Austrian Table Tennis Federation informed ETTU that it would not be able to organise the JOOLA EYS event in Stockerau due to venue-related issues. As a result, ETTU turned to the next non-accepted bid for 2026, submitted by the Portuguese Table Tennis Federation.
After reaching an agreement on the new dates, ETTU confirmed that Albufeira will host the event at the Pavilhão Desportivo de Olhos de Água. The official airport for the tournament will be Faro.
