Scheduled from January 19 to 23, 2026, the groundbreaking event is set to kick-start the international cycling calendar with a four-stage, multi-day challenge that promises to be a truly global spectacle.
The Pune Grand Tour 2026 is expected to witness the participation of 28 competitive teams from across the globe, including four national teams representing some of the world’s best cycling nations. India will field two national teams, namely, ‘India A’ and ‘India B’.
This historic sporting initiative was conceptualised and led by Pune District Administration, with the steadfast support of the Government of Maharashtra.
