First-Ever Vuelta a las Islas Canarias Stage Race Set for Next January

The new Vuelta a las Islas Canarias stage race is scheduled to open the UCI professional racing calendar next January. The arrival of a new event to kick off the year has generated significant intrigue among fans.

Set to run for four days from January 14 to 17, the competition will be the first-ever stage race held on the Spanish archipelago.

Situated roughly 1,000 kilometres south of the mainland, the Canary Islands are frequently used by both professional and amateur cyclists for warm weather and altitude training camps.
