The 2026 Oceania Para Athletics Championships brings together the region's leading para-athletes across track, field, and road events in Darwin, Northern Territory. Darwin's warm, dry-season climate in May provides ideal competition conditions, and the city's modern athletics infrastructure supports a full programme of Paralympic classification categories.
The championships serve as an important qualifying pathway for international Para athletics competitions and give emerging athletes from Pacific island nations crucial competition experience alongside their more established Australian and New Zealand counterparts. Events span sprints, middle distance, jumps, throws, and combined events across multiple impairment classes. Athletics Australia and the Oceania Athletics Association jointly oversee the technical programme, with Paralympic classification officials in attendance throughout the competition.
