The 2026 International Bernese Ladies Cup was held from January 30 to February 1 at Curling Bern in Bern, Switzerland as part of the World Curling Tour. The event was held in a round-robin format with a purse of 20,000 CHF.
In a final tuneup for the 2026 Winter Olympics, Switzerland's Silvana Tirinzoni went undefeated to claim the event title for a second straight year, defeating Isabella Wranå's team skipped by Almida de Val 5–3 in the championship game. After a 4–0 round robin record, Team Tirinzoni beat Denmark's Madeleine Dupont in the quarterfinals before eliminating the Swiss junior rink skipped by Elodie Jerger in the semifinals. Meanwhile, Team Wranå finished 3–1 in the round robin before knocking off Germany's Sara Messenzehl and Switzerland's Xenia Schwaller in the quarters and semis respectively.
