Tour of Bruges on today

The men’s WorldTour race is scheduled for March 25, 2026, with the women’s WorldTour edition set for March 26, 2026 under the Ronde van Brugge banner. (rondevanbrugge.be)) The men’s course is listed at 202.9 km, starting and finishing in Bruges and routing back to the city for a wide sprint finish on the Gulden‑Vlieslaan. (cyclingnews.com)) Organisers have built the event around two main loops — a southern detour through Torhout, Wingene and Beernem and a tighter northern circuit around Bruges — changing the race’s tactical profile away from a coastward finale. (procyclinguk.com)) A 1.8 km cobbled sector on the Brieversweg is on the route, bringing the men’s total cobbled distance to about 5.4 km versus roughly 3.6 km for the women, and the men will ride repeated laps of the northern circuit. (cyclist.co.uk)) The rebrand from Classic Brugge‑De Panne to Ronde van Brugge (Tour of Bruges) followed safety concerns around the De Panne finish, and organisers say the Bruges start/finish is secured on the calendar through at least 2031. (wielerflits.be)) The official startlist names sprint leaders including Jasper Philipsen, Dylan Groenewegen and Juan Sebastián Molano among the principal contenders for the bunch finish. (procyclingstats.com)) Television coverage is scheduled across multiple outlets — listed broadcasters include TNT Sports, Sporza, MAX and FloBikes — and the men’s race roll‑out from Bruges’ Markt is planned for the early afternoon local slot.
