Giro d'Italia 2024 schedule: Stages, dates and times
Your complete guide to watching the Giro d'Italia, with details including dates, times and the full schedule for each stage.
We're witnessing greatness in the Giro d'Italia in 2024 as Tadej Pogačar enters the home stretch towards Rome.
The Slovenian superstar has dominated the event so far and looks on course for the widest margin of victory since Ivan Basso clinched the title with nine minutes in hand in 2006.
Pogačar has led the pack from the end of Stage 2 all the way into the final week and, at the time of writing with five stages left to race, boasts a lead of seven minutes and 18 seconds over second-placed Daniel Martinez, who is closely trailed by British star Geraint Thomas.

Think Italy, think mountains. The Giro is full of them. Over 21 stages, the finest cyclists in the world will have ascended almost 43,000 metres by the finish line.
Astonishingly, that's 9,000 metres below recent years, with fewer mountain stages included in 2024, but the route has still put riders to the ultimate test.
Primož Roglič did not return to defend his title in 2024, leaving the gate wide open for Pogačar to sit atop the summit of favourites.
