Drupal Core Schedule Confirms 2026 Release and Support Timeline
Drupal.org’s core release schedule, last updated on 4 June 2026, confirms the main 2026 release and support dates for Drupal 11, Drupal 12, and Drupal 10.
The schedule lists Drupal 11.4.0 for the week of 22 June 2026 UTC. That release window also ends security support for Drupal 11.2.x and Drupal 10.5.x. Drupal 11.4.0-beta1 was listed for the week of 18 May 2026 UTC, followed by Drupal 11.4.0-rc1 during the week of 1 June 2026 UTC.
Drupal 12 beta requirements must be completed by 11 September 2026. Drupal 12.0.0-beta1 and Drupal 11.5.0-beta1 are scheduled for the week of 14 September 2026 UTC, followed by release candidates during the week of 9 November 2026 UTC.
Drupal 12.0.0 and Drupal 11.5.0 are scheduled for the week of 7 December 2026 UTC. That release window also ends security support for Drupal 11.3.x and Drupal 10.6.x. Drupal.org notes that release windows may be used for new versions but do not guarantee that every listed window will include a release.
Drupal 10.6.0 is listed as the final minor release of Drupal 10. Drupal 10 reaches end of life on 9 December 2026, after which no new Drupal 10 releases will be made. The schedule is therefore most useful as a planning reference for site owners, agencies, and maintainers preparing upgrade timelines.
