The 2026 Quebec Tankard (French: Championnat provincial Tankard 2026), the provincial men's curling championship of Quebec, was held from January 5 to 11 at the Complexe Sportif Desjardins in Rimouski, Quebec. The winning Jean-Michel Ménard rink represented Quebec at the 2026 Montana's Brier in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador. The event was held in conjunction with the 2026 Quebec Women's Curling Championship, the provincial women's curling championship.

The 2026 event returned to the format used in 2020 with two pools of eight playing a round robin. This qualified the top three teams for the championship pool and the top four teams for the playoffs.
