The first Grand Tour of 2026, the Giro d’Italia gets underway on Friday 8 May with its Grande Partenza taking place in Bulgaria for the first time.
The 109th edition of the Giro will be fought out over 3,459km of road and 49,150m of climbing en route to the now-traditional processional final stage in Rome, where a successor to last year’s winner Simon Yates will be crowned.
