The first edition was held in 1994, with sprint, pursuit, individual and relay. The number of events has grown significantly over the years. Till 2015, the competitions included also junior events but since 2016 the [[IBU Junior Open European Championships|Junior Championships]] are held separately.
== Participation of non-European competitors == Even though the event is called European Championships, the event is not restricted to European athletes only. The full name of the competition is '''Open Biathlon European Championships''', meaning that biathletes from non-European countries are eligible to participate and their results being recognised. There are three instances in which non-European competitors have won medals. [[Lowell Bailey]] from the [[United States]] became the first non-European to win a medal by winning bronze in the Junior Sprint event in 2001, followed by another bronze in the Junior Pursuit. [[Audrey Vaillancourt]] of [[Canada]] became the first non-European athlete to win gold in the competition, winning the Women's 15 km individual in 2014.
