- Events at the 2006 Winter Paralympics
This is a list of events and medallists at the 2006 Winter Paralympics. The Games featured 58 medal events in 5 disciplines grouped over 4 sports. Wheelchair curling made Paralympic debut in Turin.
Several disability classes that raced separately in the 2002 Winter Paralympics raced together at the 2006 Paralympics. Competitors are given a "factored time" based on their "real time" and the level of disability of the competitor. This resulted in a decrease in the number of medals on offer.
