The 78th edition of the Vuelta a España, or Tour of Spain, is scheduled to kick off on August 26, 2023, in Barcelona. This return of the Gran Salida to Spanish soil follows last season’s initiation in the Netherlands. The race will culminate in Madrid on September 17, 2023.
Defending his title against a competitive field, the 2022 champion Remco Evenepoel of Soudal-Quickstep will be back in action. His opposition includes the three-time Vuelta victor Primoz Roglic, who encountered a crash in 2022 but rebounded by claiming his inaugural Giro d’Italia triumph in May. Roglic will co-lead the Jumbo-Visma team alongside the two-time Tour de France champion Jonas Vingegaard. The Dutch team aims to achieve a historic milestone by becoming the first-ever squad to win all three Grand Tours in a single year.
