Denmark and its capital, Copenhagen, have launched an ambitious bid to host the World Cycling Championships in 2029.
Copenhagen has already earned a special place in the hearts of cycling fans thanks to its successful Grand Depart of the Tour de France last year. This event became a true popular festival that left its mark on the cycling world. The experience of organizing an event of such magnitude has demonstrated the city's ability to host top-level cycling competitions.

Denmark's proposal focuses on designing a course that challenges the technically strongest cyclists, which promises to be a draw for cycling enthusiasts around the world. Copenhagen's ability to offer a spectacular backdrop and at the same time challenging racing terrain could see the most skilled riders emerge victorious in 2029.

We cannot forget that Denmark has already hosted a World Cycling Championships in the past. Just twelve years ago, in 2011, Copenhagen hosted this prestigious competition, which saw Mark Cavendish and Giorgia Bronzini crowned world champions. This successful event demonstrates Denmark's ability to organize high-level cycling events.
