Tour de France 2024 schedule: Stages, dates and times
Your complete guide to watching the Tour de France, with details including dates, times and the full schedule for each stage.
The Tour de France 2024 goes ahead with a fresh starting point and unprecedented finish line in a Grand Tour with a twist this year.
It is not uncommon for the event to begin in another country. This year's Tour de France will begin in Florence, Italy, for the first time in history.
And that's not all. Forget the iconic final stage as riders traditionally zoom towards the Champs-Elysees. Instead, the final stage will be held in Nice, the first time the event has finished in a city away from Paris.
