The Men's 88 kg weightlifting event at the 2026 Commonwealth Games will take place at the SEC Armadillo on 28 July 2026 The 88 kg is an intermediate class between the traditional light-heavyweight and middle-heavyweight classes of previous Games. Earlier versions of the middle-heavyweight class were 89 kg, but the limits on that class had drifted upwards to the current 94 kg weight division limit. Following these Games, the recognised weight classes for Olympic weightlifting will be reset with divisions at 75 kg and 85 kg. Malaysia's Muhammad Hafizuddin Roslin won the gold medal ahead of Cameron McTaggart from New Zealand who took silver with Angus Doig of Scotland claiming the bronze.
