On the 5th of April, the first weekend of April, fans will be able to watch the 2026 Tour of Flanders - the men's race followed by the women's - on the roads of the Belgian region, which are packed with the short, steep and cobbled climbs. Here is when and where to watch the race live and on TV, including in the USA and UK.

The 'Ronde van Vlaanderen' was created in 1913 and won won by Paul Deman in its first edition. It is the greatest race in a region where cycling is king, marked by the cobbled climbs and traditional landscapes. Seven riders share a three-victory record, including top figures of multiple generations such as Johan Museeuw, Tom Boonen, Fabian Cancellara and Mathieu van der Poel. But so many other top riders have won here...

Rik van Steenbergen, Rik van Looy, Tom Simpson, Eddy Merckx, Roger de Vlaeminck, Jan Raas, Adrie van der Poel, Eddy Planckaerts, Michele Bartoli, Peter van Petegem, just to name a few... In the more modern cycling we've had Tom Boonen (2005, 2006 and 2012); Fabian Cancellara (2010, 2013 and 2014) and Mathieu van der Poel (2020, 2022 and 2024) win on three occasions... Between them legendary figures such as Stijn Devolder, Alexander Kristoff, Peter Sagan, Philippe Gilbert, Niki Terpstra, Alberto Bettiol, Kasper Asgreen... And the newest addition to the palmarès: Tadej Pogacar. In 2023 the Slovenian won with a solo attack over Mathieu van der Poel and in 2025 he did it once again in a race that featured a spectacular finale.
