The 2026 World Junior Mixed Doubles Curling Championship (branded as the 2026 Booster Juice World Junior Mixed Doubles Curling Championship for sponsorship reasons) was held from May 5 to 10 at the Saville Community Sports Centre in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
The championship followed the same format as last year, in which there was a round-robin format with four groups. The top two teams in each group qualified for the quarterfinals. Teams were ranked 1 to 8 by comparing the DSCs of the teams with the same rank from each group.
Japan's Yuina Miura and Kaito Fujii won the event, coming back from a three-point deficit to defeat Canada's Brooklyn Ideson and Owen Henry 6–5. After Canada got two in the fifth end to go ahead 5–2, the Japanese pair got one in the sixth end before stealing one in the seventh and two in the eighth end to earn the world championship title. Scotland's Tia Laurie and Ethan Brewster won the bronze medal in a 10–7 victory over Denmark's Katrine and Jacob Schmidt.
