About The Event

2023 UCI Cycling World Championships

From 3-13 August 2023, the inaugural UCI Cycling World Championships will be hosted in Glasgow and across Scotland. It will be the single biggest cycling event in history, bringing together 13 existing individual cycling world championship disciplines into one mega event.


The 2023 UCI Cycling World Championships will comprise all the major cycling disciplines: Road Cycling, BMX, Mountain Biking, and Track Cycling. All disciplines will include both male and female competition, and para disciplines will also be staged alongside able-bodied competition.


More than one million spectators are expected to attend the Championships throughout Scotland, with a global TV audience of around one billion reaching up to 150 countries, making it one of the Top 10 watched sporting events on the planet.

The 2023 UCI Cycling World Championships is more than just an event. It will be a catalyst for behavioural change by giving everyone the opportunity to experience the freedom riding a bike can bring to their lives.

By working in collaboration with cycling and wider partners, it will amplify and unify existing work and activity across health, transport, tourism and participation.
