2026 Tour of Slovenia dates confirmed

The International Cycling Union has published the road racing calendar for the 2026 season, of course 32nd edition of the Tour of Slovenia is also included. The five stages of the race will take place from June 17 to 21, returning to the traditional slot for this Slovenian event.

The race is returning to its "old" time slot, in the same week as Tour de Suisse. Overall, an exciting season of racing on home roads awaits, as Slovenia will also host the European Road Cycling Championships.

Bogdan Fink, the race director of the Tour of Slovenia, said: "We are pleased that the UCI listened to our arguments and returned us to the time slot we’ve had since 2006. The most important thing is that the race takes place in June, as Slovenia is at its greenest then, and the better timing between the Giro d’Italia and the Tour de France has other advantages as well. As in every year, we expect excellent riders at the start line in the 2026 season, along with a diverse mix of teams from all three quality tiers."

The route for the 32nd Tour of Slovenia will be announced in the coming months.
