Watch Tour de France Femmes 2024 to see the very best bike riders in the world take on the very biggest race on the planet, with a blockbuster finale on the mythical Alpe d’Huez. Below, we have all the info on how to watch Tour de France Femmes 2024 from anywhere in the world with details on worldwide TV channels, broadcasters and free streams.
The Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift is the women’s version of the Tour de France, revamped and returned to the calendar as of two years ago, and anticipation is high after two thrillers in the past two editions. The race spans eight stages, with a foreign start in the Netherlands and a set-piece final-day showdown on the famous hairpins of Alpe d’Huez, perhaps cycling’s most famous mountain.
With some stages set to culminate in high-speed bunch sprints, some featuring punchy hills and some exposed to the wind, plus one short individual time trial, all before the race reaches the Alps in the final weekend, it’s an all-round test for the riders and sure-fire entertainment for fans. Demi Vollering (Team SD Worx-Protime), the 2023 champion, is the favourite to defend the yellow jersey but will have to fend off the likes of Katarzyna Niewiadoma (Canyon-SRAM) and Elisa Longo Borghini (Lidl-Trek).
