April 30, 2026, 2nd stage of the TDR Rue-Vucherens in our canton of Fribourg, a landmark event that will remain in the annals for a long time! A phenomenal experience with an imperial victory for Pogačar at the end of the race! And to cap off the sporting evening in style, our Fribourg-Gottéron, Swiss ice hockey champions, were masterful!

Stage 20 departure 2026

The prologue of the 2026 Tour de Romandie in Villars-sur-Glâne was an exceptional success, combining sporting performance, exemplary engagement from businesses, volunteers, and authorities, as well as remarkable enthusiasm from the population around a profoundly unifying event. Pure joy!

Villars-sur-Glâne, Prologue 2026

As a stage town, hosting the Tour de Romandie in our village was an immense honor: seeing the cyclists race through our streets, carried by the vibrant encouragement of our residents, made our collective heart beat stronger than ever and left us with an unforgettable emotion.

Leysin, stage 2 finish 2026

Becoming a stage town for the Tour de Romandie is fully in line with our political commitment to hosting major sporting events. This event has been a fantastic showcase for our city thanks to the public's enthusiasm and the significant media coverage it received. Hosting a time trial stage of the Tour de Romandie was a major logistical challenge to overcome. The result lived up to our investment and expectations, as the large crowd was delighted to cheer on these cyclists along the entire route.

What wonderful memories, despite substantial preparatory work. A local organizing committee proud of our success and of having introduced our village. Thanks to the organizers, what a beautiful celebration it was, we're still talking about it...

Hosting such an event is a wonderful way to promote tourism and sports in the region. The popular enthusiasm surrounding the Tour de Romandie shows that cycling is very popular, whether in the host cities or along the roadside. The numerous congratulatory messages received from all quarters have largely offset the committee's investments.
