2026 Tour of Britain

The Tour of Britain is the United Kingdom's premier professional men's cycling stage race and one of the most prestigious events on the UCI ProSeries calendar. Held across multiple stages in early September, the race visits a rotating set of British regions each year, from coastal finish towns to summit finishes on Highland climbs.

The 2026 edition runs from 2 to 6 September and features the world's leading professional cycling teams competing across Britain's characteristically varied and demanding terrain. The race holds a special place in British sport as the country's highest-profile cycling event, drawing large roadside crowds and extensive media coverage. Since its revival in 2004, the Tour of Britain has grown consistently in prestige and field quality and remains the highlight of the British cycling calendar.
