Excel National Festival

The 2026 Excel National Festival took place July 15–19 at The Skating Club of Boston in Norwood, Massachusetts. It was a figure-skating event, not an inline-skating festival, and combined the invitation-only Excel Series Final Competition with an open competition for eligible lower-level Excel Series skaters.

The Final Competition included invited Excel Preliminary Plus through Senior-level skaters who qualified through the 2026 Excel Series. The Open Competition accepted Aspire 1–4 and Pre-Preliminary skaters, with registration opening May 1. Participants used the organizer’s announcement, tentative festival schedule, starting orders, and results materials for practice, competition, accreditation, merchandise, and hotel information.

The July 2026 festival has ended, so this listing now serves as an archive. The official venue is The Skating Club of Boston’s Norwood facility at 750 University Avenue, which conflicts with the stored Seaport Boulevard location. Check the club’s official Excel page for results and any future festival announcement.
