The 2026 DP World Tour (European Tour) schedule has been announced, with a similar look to the schedule in 2025.
The 2026 schedule features the return of seven different blocks of the schedule. There are five separate "swings" in the schedule: Opening, International, Asian, European and Closing. The other two portions of the schedule are the Back Nine and the DP World Tour playoffs, a two-event slate that will determine the Race to Dubai champion.

At the end of each swing, the top five players in Race to Dubai points from that stretch will get a share of a bonus pool.
The idea behind the schedule is to create incentives to continue playing on the DP World Tour through particular stretches of the year.
