Please find below the 2026 ‘Africa Tour‘, the UCI classified multi-stage and one day races across the continent, alongside all individual National Championships – a key source of UCI points.
As you can see, there are six UCI classified men’s Stage Races (Algeria, Benin, Cameroon, Chantal Biya, Mauritius and Rwanda), and one UCI women’s Stage Race (Burundi) currently confirmed at this point. The fifth edition of the Tour of Sahel (UCI 2.2) took place in January 2025 but is not confirmed for 2026 yet.
With a handful of other non-UCI multi-stage races in Africa, including the Tours of Ghana, Lunsar (Sierra Leone) and Tigray, we hope to see one or two of these promoted to UCI level in 2027 to continue the rise of African racing. There are also several non-UCI one day races that we hope will apply for UCI 1.2 ranking as well to help promote these, including several in South Africa.
Throughout the year, we will add new/relevant races (ie African Continental Championships, other National Championships) when dates are announced/confirmed, and update all results* as they happen!
