The Lithuanian Figure Skating Championships are held annually to crown the national champions of Lithuania. Skaters compete in men's singles, women's singles, pair skating, and ice dance at the senior, junior, and novice levels, although not every discipline is held every year due to a lack of participants. The event is organized by the Lithuanian Skating Federation, the sport's national governing body. The competition's results are among the criteria used to determine the teams to the World Championships, World Junior Championships, European Championships, and Winter Olympics.
