The XI International Chopin Piano Competition (Polish: XI Międzynarodowy Konkurs Pianistyczny im. Fryderyka Chopina) was held from 30 September to 20 October 1985 in Warsaw.[1]

For the first time, participants could choose to play on a Kawai or on a Yamaha piano, in addition to the Steinway and Bösendorfer that had been available before. Bechstein withdrew from the competition after its instrument was chosen just once during the 9th competition.[1]
