Tour de France™'26

Barcelona has been awarded the first “Más Bici” Seal by La Vuelta, a new distinction recognising cities committed to promoting daily bicycle use and cycling.

The seal is part of the La Vuelta es Más programme, which aims to promote cycling beyond the professional competition and foster the use of bicycles as a means of sustainable mobility and of improving social well-being.

The official award ceremony will be held soon, once the current edition of La Vuelta has concluded.

This recognition once again shows that Barcelona has consolidated its position as a cycling city, the result of a firm commitment to sustainable mobility with cycling at the centre, and at the same time, as an international benchmark for organising major sporting events.

In recent years, Barcelona as been the setting for top-level cycling events, such as the first stage of La Vuelta a España 2023 and that of La Vuelta Femenina 2025. 2026 marks a historic landmark with the city hosting the Grand Départ of the Tour de France, the first stage of the most prestigious cycling race in the world, which for the first time is taking place in Barcelona.

With this seal, Barcelona reaffirms its position as a cycling capital, both in everyday life and in international competitions.
