They were first held in their current format in 2010, when elite level cyclists competed for the first time following an overhaul of European track cycling.

Beginning with 2018, every fourth edition of the competition will form part of the multi-sport event. While track cycling also forms part of the 2019 European Games in Minsk, these events are not regarded as European Championships but as the Cycling programme of the European Games, and the UEC event will also be held later in the same year.
