The world’s best cyclists have returned to Adelaide for the Santos Tour Down Under, January 16-25. Enjoy front-row racing, experience SA’s beautiful regions, and savour local food and wine across 10 days of racing and festivities.
It all kicks off on Friday, January 16, in Victoria Square/Tarntanyangga, with a free show from time-travelling DJ Hot Dub Time Machine. The huge set will start straight after the Team Presentation, where all the riders will greet the crowd.
The 2026 race routes are the most exciting in Santos Tour Down Under history, including the longest women’s race on record. With tougher stages, fierce climbs and unforgiving terrain, each day promises non-stop action.
Not such a big cycling fan? There are plenty of events along the race route and in the regions that invite you to share the electric atmosphere.
Whether you’re in it for the cycling or simply soaking up the summer vibes, a day at TDU delivers no matter what brings you trackside. Explore the festival program and go beyond the race.
