Copenhagen Sprint

When the race starts next summer in Roskilde and finishes in Copenhagen, it will be under the name Copenhagen Sprint.

The race, which includes an elite race for both female and male riders, has secured a place in the UCI race calendar on 21 and 22 June 2025, allowing sprinters to test their form ahead of Tour de France.

The route winds through the North Zealand landscape with scenic roads, castles, and landmarks, culminating in the streets of Copenhagen over bridges, lakes, and past historic and modern buildings, and attractions. During the race weekend, there will be festive cycling side events with plenty of activities for children, adults, and cycling fans. Among other events, a public cycling race will be organised where everyone can ride the route in Copenhagen for free. As part of the cycling event there will also be a political cycling summit, which will set the framework for new strategic collaborations to promote everyday cycling in Denmark and the rest of the world.

In the frame of the Change(K)now! project, they will test a reuse system (food and beverage packages) with return incentives.
