If you are trying to follow every bout at the Commonwealth Games 2026, knowing the boxing schedule is essential. The competition is being held at Hall 5 of the Scottish Event Campus (SEC) in Glasgow, running from July 24 to August 1, and features 14 medal events across seven weight categories each for men and women.
The Overall Timeline
Preliminary bouts, covering the round of 32 and round of 16, run from July 24 through July 27. Quarterfinals follow on July 28 and 29. The semifinals, where medals are guaranteed for every boxer who reaches them, take place on July 31, and the gold medal bouts are held on August 1, the final day of competition.
Daily Session Structure
For most preliminary rounds, the day is split into two sessions. From July 24 to 27, the opening session begins at 3:30 PM Indian Standard Time, while July 28 and 29 shift the first session to 4:30 PM. A second session on all these preliminary days starts at 10:30 PM IST. July 31, the semifinal day, is different, with three sessions scheduled to fit in every remaining bout before the finals.
Why the Schedule Matters for Indian Fans
India has 14 boxers competing across the full range of weight categories, so bouts are spread throughout nearly every session of the tournament. Some boxers, including Lovlina Borgohain, advanced directly to the semifinals due to smaller draws in their weight class, while others began in the quarterfinals or earlier rounds. Knowing the session times helps fans catch every Indian bout live rather than relying on results after the fact.
Where to Watch
Boxing at Glasgow 2026 is broadcast live in India on the Sony Sports Network, with streaming available on Sony LIV and selected coverage also on Doordarshan.
Planning Around the Big Days
For anyone specifically interested in medal bouts, July 31 and August 1 are the two dates to prioritise. With Lovlina Borgohain, Sakshi Chaudhary, and several other Indian boxers already guaranteed medals heading into the semifinals, these final two days of competition will decide exactly how many golds, silvers, and bronzes India takes home from the boxing programme at Glasgow 2026.
