The 1906 men competition took place on February 4th, 1906 in Munich, German Empire. Ulrich Salchow did not participate because he feared that the judgement would not be fair in Gilber Fuchs’ hometown Munich.

The 1906 ladies competition took place January 28th to 29th, 1906 in Davos, Switzerland. It was the first World Championships in figure skating for ladies.
