The 96th World Figure Skating Championships were from 19 to 26 March 2006 at the Saddledome in Calgary ( Canada instead).

Because of the large number of participants, the starting field in the individual competitions was again divided into groups A and B. It was the last time there was a qualifying round. From the next World Championships onwards, everyone was admitted to the short program and the best 24 of them to the freestyle.
