Tadej Pogacar celebrates on the podium with his bike, trophy and UAE Team Emirates XRG team after winning the Tour de France last year. The 2027 Tour de France will head through Carlisle, Keswick, Liverpool and Welshpool after starting out in Edinburgh next July before finishing in Cardiff. And the 2027 Tour de France Femmes avec Swift, heading to the UK for the first time, will depart from Leeds later in July and take in Manchester and Sheffield before finishing in London. It will be the first time the two races have started in the same country other than France. Prudhomme said: “There’s going to be double the impact because we also have the women’s race in Leeds, Sheffield, Manchester and London, as well as the men’s race.
