On 2 July next year, the Sant Pau Art Nouveau Site will host the official presentation of the cycling teams in an event of great international significance.

Coinciding with the year in which Barcelona is World Capital of Architecture, the city has been chosen to kick off the world’s most important cycling race. The Art Nouveau Site will be the epicentre of a festive day open to the public, culminating in a parade of the teams along Avinguda de Gaudí to the Sagrada Família, where the main stage will be set up.

The event will connect two jewels of Catalan modernisme along a symbolic 900-metre route that will showcase Barcelona’s architectural heritage to a global audience.

Hosting the Tour de France team presentation is a recognition of the uniqueness and artistic beauty of the Sant Pau Art Nouveau Site, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The event highlights the role of Sant Pau as a vibrant and open space in the city, where heritage, culture, health, innovation, sustainability and sport come together.
