Three of the eight stages will take place in the Netherlands, including two on the same day, including a time trial in the streets of Rotterdam, before the finish on Sunday August 18.

The 2023 edition will leave on July 23 from Clermont-Ferrand. The 2024 edition represented a headache because of the holding of the 2024 Olympics in Paris (July 26-August 11) which made it impossible to organize the Women’s Tour directly as an extension of the Men’s Tour as is currently the case. . The men’s Tour de France itself will start a week earlier next year, from Florence in Italy.
