A month with no day is estimated at that month's last day, which puts this pin on 30 November 2026; it moves when ESA names the day.
The first stage of Euclid Data Release 1 puts out all raw data and calibrated images, catalogues and spectra over about 1,900 square degrees of sky. The higher-level products for galaxy clustering and weak lensing follow in mid-2027.
