The 2025 Women's European Basketball Championship, commonly called EuroBasket Women 2025, was the 40th edition of the biannual continental tournament in women's basketball, sanctioned by the FIBA Europe. It was held in Czechia, Germany, Italy and Greece from 18 to 29 June 2025. This was the first FIBA Women's EuroBasket to be hosted by four countries, copying the hosting format used for the men's EuroBasket since 2015. The tournament involved 16 teams, with the four co-hosts qualifying automatically. Portugal made their debut while Switzerland returned after 69 years.
The winner qualified for the 2026 FIBA Women's Basketball World Cup and the top five teams (including the winner) will qualify for one of the qualifying tournaments for the 2026 World Cup. Germany (as host) and Czechia (as winner of a Pre-Qualifying Tournament) had already qualified for the qualifying tournaments and should one or both of these teams finish in the qualifying positions, the next-best team(s) qualified instead.
Belgium were the defending champions. The Belgians would go undefeated and successfully defend their title with a 67–65 win over Spain, despite being down by 12 points with three minutes left. Belgium became the third country after Soviet Union and Spain to defend their title. Emma Meesseman won her second MVP award in a row, becoming the first player to win it twice. Mariona Ortiz received the best defensive player award while Justė Jocytė won the rising star award, given to the best young player.
The tournament broke many records on and off the court and was deemed a big success by FIBA Europe. This edition broke the attendance record with 92,851 fans at games. This edition also broke the single game attendance record for the 21st century as Greece's do or die game against Turkey in Piraeus would garner 10,503 spectators, breaking the record previously held by the quarterfinal game between Russia vs Latvia in 2009. On the field, Italy won their first medal the 30 years while Germany and Slovenia achieved their best ever result with fifth and ninth respectively. France's win 111–37 over Switzerland was the biggest winning margin in 49 years.
