The 2005 Karl Schäfer Memorial was the Karl Schäfer Memorial of the 2005–2006 Olympic season. The competition is also known as the Vienna Cup. Skaters competed in the disciplines of men's singles, ladies singles, pair skating, and ice dancing.
The 2005 Karl Schäfer Memorial was the final Olympic qualifying competition for the 2006 Winter Olympics. Skaters who placed high enough qualified a spot to the Olympics for their country; there was no individual skater qualification. Countries who had already qualified a spot to the Olympics at the 2005 World Figure Skating Championships were not eligible to qualify more spots here, and their results were discounted from the overall results when allotting spots to countries. Unlike at the World Championships, where countries could qualify more than one spot depending on the placement of the skater, at this competition, countries who qualified were allotted only one spot to the Olympics, regardless of placement.
It took place in the Albert Schultz Ice Rink in Vienna, Austria from October 14 through October 17, 2005.
