EUROSPORT AND TNT SPORTS EXTEND TOUR DE FRANCE AND LA VUELTA A ESPAÑA COVERAGE ACROSS EUROPE
  • New agreement with the EBU secures broad coverage of the world’s greatest road cycling events on Eurosport, TNT Sports and HBO Max until 2032.
  • Fans can watch every stage of the Tour de France, Tour de France Femmes, La Vuelta a España, La Vuelta Femenina and Classics live across Europe.
  • Trojan Paillot: “We are the perfect partner to continue advancing cycling coverage for many years to come.”

The home of cycling coverage is secure as Eurosport and TNT Sports today extend their agreement with the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) to bring every major race organised by the Amaury Sport Organisation (ASO) and Unipublic to millions of fans across Europe until at least 2032.

A huge selection of the greatest men’s and women’s road cycling events will be available to watch live with broad availability and exclusivity*. This includes the Tour de France, Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift, La Vuelta a España, La Vuelta Femenina and several Classics, including two of the Monuments - Paris-Roubaix Hauts-de-France (men and women) and Liège–Bastogne–Liège (men and women) - among many more.

Localised race coverage will be shown on Eurosport in 50 markets and 21 languages and on TNT Sports in the UK and Ireland. Fans can watch every race included in the expansive package of events live as part of the most comprehensive cycling content offer anywhere with more than 1,000 races broadcast each season.

The ultimate cycling experience will be on HBO Max with all races streaming live through Eurosport’s (Europe) and TNT Sports’ (UK) coverage on the service. The platform recently launched new innovative in-app features including the Race Centre Multiview to transform how fans follow key races such as the Grand Tours. It displays four live camera feeds and graphics showing rider data and standings, giving fans a 360-degree race view. The popular feature was enjoyed by one in four HBO Max subscribers throughout the 2026 Grand Tour season.

Trojan Paillot, SVP, Sports Rights Acquisitions and Syndication at Eurosport and TNT Sports, said: “It is a privilege to act as the custodian of the biggest events in cycling including the Tour de France and La Vuelta and we welcome the opportunity to continue working in partnership with the EBU and ASO to showcase the very best of our sport.

“Over four decades, we have built a proven record of bringing fans quality cycling coverage and stories and have relentlessly pursued new ways to grow the sport. Our commitment to innovation, passion for the sport, and unmatched scale makes us the perfect partner to continue advancing cycling coverage for many years to come.”

Together, Eurosport, TNT Sports and HBO Max are recognised as the home of cycling coverage in Europe. More than 300 days of live racing are available across the channels and platforms each season including every race on the men’s and women’s World Tour, the Grand Tours, the Classics and a wide range of cycling covering every Road, Track, Mountain Bike, Cyclocross and BMX World Championships alongside the entire WHOOP UCI Mountain Bike World Series.

Across Europe, Eurosport (now TNT Sports in the UK and Ireland) has broadcast every edition of the Tour de France live since 1991 and has consistently expanded reach and engagement with the year’s biggest stage races while supporting the growth of the sport. In 2026, Eurosport increased its Tour de France audience across Europe by +9% with record viewership reported in France, Spain and the Netherlands. TNT Sports also secured its biggest ever Tour de France audience in the UK and Ireland with audiences growing by +58% during its first edition of exclusive race coverage in 2026. This trend was mirrored across Europe on HBO Max as a record number of viewers streamed all the action with viewing subscribers rising by +8%.
