The World Figure Skating Championships is an annual figure skating competition sanctioned by the International Skating Union in which elite figure skaters compete for the title of World Champion. This event is considered the most prestigious of the ISU Championships.
The 2006 Worlds were held at the Pengrowth Saddledome in Calgary, Alberta, Canada from March 19 to 26th, 2006. None of the gold medalists from the 2006 Olympics chose to contend. Stephane Lambiel, the only defending champion, won his event.
The compulsory dance was the Ravensburger Waltz. Due to the large number of participants, the ladies and men's qualifying groups were split into groups A and B. This was the last World Championships to have a qualifying round. Following the 2006 Worlds, the ISU Congress voted to remove it. Following these Worlds, all skaters would compete in the short program, with the top twenty-four then advancing to the free skate.
