The Tour de France 2027 begins with a Grand Départ in Britain.

The Grand Départ 2027 is confirmed as taking place in Britain.
The first stage will set off from Edinburgh and make its way south via a climb at the Côte de Melrose. It continues on rural roads through undulating terrrain, via Hawick, to Carlisle for a probable bunch sprint.
The second stage starts in the Lake District, in Keswick, and heads down the west coast to Lancaster. There are climbs in the second part of the stage before the finish in Liverpool. This could be a day for the breakaway.
The third stage is from Welshpool south to Cardiff. The sharp climbs in the latter part of the day make this a GC stage, with the winner likely to be a puncheur or GC contender.
The Tour de France Femmes 2027 is also set to start with three stages in Britain. Leeds hosts the start of Stage 1.
