Ethereum’s Glamsterdam upgrade is scheduled for Hoodi, a test network, on Oct. 26, 2026, at 17:42:48 UTC, giving its node operators a deadline to upgrade software. The test pairs changes to block production and validation with a scheduled 200 million gas target. The Ethereum Foundation’s Oct. 16 announcement fixes the next testnet deployment after Glamsterdam’s Oct. 6 activation on Sepolia. Mainnet timing remains undecided. ETH holders and mainnet operators have no action to take as a result of this Hoodi announcement. All Hoodi operators must update their execution and consensus clients before activation.
