Start and finish times 

What can you expect from the 2024 tour de france.

This year's race should be an exciting battle for overall victory, with four potential winners all vying for the maillot jaune. Reigning champion Jonas Vingegaard (Visma-Lease A Bike), Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates), Remco Evenepoel (Soudal-Quick Step) and Primož Roglič (Bora-Hansgrohe) are the men most likely, although newly-anointed Giro d'Italia champion Pogačar is the only rider to have come through the early season unscathed. The other three have missed training time after tangling with each other in the same crash in Itzulia Basque Country in April.

Vingegaard was the worst affected , and in early June there was still a question mark over whether he would definitely be at the Tour de France, but he was announced on the start list the week before the race.

There are plenty of sprinting opportunities scattered throughout the race. Last year's green jersey Jasper Philipsen (Alpecin-Deceuninck) will be the man to beat, pushed hard others including Mads Pedersen (Lidl-Trek) and Fabio Jakobsen (dsm-firmenich-PostNL). Many eyes will also be on Mark Cavendish (Astana Qazaqstan), who returns for his last Tour de France in the hope of finally beating the all-time 35-stage-win record that he is currently tied on with Eddy Merckx.

The final stage sees the race make way for the Paris Olympic Games and finish outside the capital for the first time in history, with a time trial from Monaco to Nice.

From Florence to the Beaches of Nice: How to Watch the 2024 Tour de France

How to Watch the Tour de France in the U.S.

How to watch the tour de france in canada, what happened last year, riders to watch, tour de france history.

The Tour de France was first raced in 1903 when journalist (and former bike racer) Henri Desgrange organized the event to promote L’Auto-Vélo, a French sporting newspaper that he edited–and is known today as L’Equipe. The newspaper was actually printed on yellow paper, which fuels one of the narratives surrounding the origins of the maillot jaune . That year’s Tour covered 2,428 km (1,509 mi) spread over just six stages–the average stage length was about 405 km (251 mi)–and only 21 of the original 60 starters finished the inaugural event.

Despite the low number of finishers, the event was an overwhelming success, and the Tour has since become one of the largest sporting events in the world, an event for which teams with multi-million dollar budgets spend years trying to win. For the riders, just a single stage win or day in the yellow jersey is a career-defining achievement. Riders who win the overall title–even just once–go down in history.

This year’s race covers 3,492 km (2,165 mi) spread over 21 stages, with eight days for the sprinters, two individual time trials, seven mountain stages, and about four stages for the punchy opportunists who head up the road in search of “do-or-die” breakaway stage victories–we love those guys.

Here’s everything you need to know about the 2024 Tour de France:

The route of the 2024 Tour de France is unlike any we’ve ever seen, mainly because it’s bookended by two of the biggest “firsts” in the event’s 110-year history: it’s the first to begin in Italy and the first to end outside of Paris (in Nice).

The Tour begins in Florence on Saturday, June 29th, the first of three-and-a-half stages in Italy. And we’re expecting fireworks right away: Stages 1 and 2 are two of the toughest opening stages we’ve ever seen, even harder than the opening stages of last year’s Tour, which took place in the hilly Basque region of northern Spain.

After a day for the sprinters on Stage 3, Stage 4 begins in Pinerolo and brings the race back into France via the 2,642m Col du Galibier. The second-highest climb in this year’s race, the first rider to the summit will win a cash prize given each year in honor of Degrange. By the end of one of the earliest mountain stages in Tour history, the GC battle will be in full swing.

The sprinters will then get two more chances as the race heads north. But the GC battle will resume on Friday, July 5th, with Stage 7, the first of two individual time trials in this year’s Tour. The first week ends with Sunday’s Stage 9, an exciting stage featuring 14 sections of white gravel roads through France’s Champagne region. This will be the first gravel stage in the history of the men’s Tour de France–the women completed a gravel stage of their own through the region in 2022.

After the Tour’s first Rest Day, the race resumes on Tuesday, July 9th, and begins a southwesterly trip–through the Massif Central, which hosts a rugged finish to Stage 11–toward the Pyrenees. Along the way, the sprinters will have a few more opportunities to win a stage before the high mountains return over the weekend.

And they return in a big way, with back-to-back hors categorie (“beyond category”) summit finishes in the mountains that form the border between France and Spain. Saturday’s Stage 12 takes the riders over the Tourmalet–which Desgrange first thought was too hard for the Tour de France–and ends with a finish at the Pla d'Adet ski resort, while Sunday’s Stage 13 ends on the Plateau de Beille–after almost 198km of racing.

As if the mountains aren’t enough cause for excitement, it’s also a holiday weekend: Sunday is Bastille Day–July 14th–so expect the roads on both days to be packed with “festive” fans. By the end of the day, the list of riders capable of winning the 2024 Tour de France will be much shorter than it was a week prior.

The Tour’s third and final week takes the race back east, where an Alpine finale looms. In all, the riders will spend four days in the mountains during the third week, first in the high Alps–with summit finishes at the end of Stage 17 ( at Superdévoluy) and Stage 19 (at Isola 2000). And don’t snooze on Thursday’s Stage 18, a saw-toothed stage from Gap to Barcelonnette that’s filled with short, jagged climbs and could be the perfect place for an ambush–or a Hail Mary–before the final weekend.

But this year’s final weekend is not what we’ve come to expect from Tours of the past. With the Summer Olympics beginning in Paris just five days after the end of the race, this year’s Tour skips its traditional finish on the Champs Elysees and instead finishes in Nice–after the hardest final weekend we’ve seen in decades.

The weekend opens on Saturday, July 20th, with Stage 20, a short but intense stage through the maritime Alps featuring four categorized ascents, including a summit finish on the Category 1 Col de la Couillole.

And just in case that doesn’t settle things, Sunday’s Stage 21 certainly will, as–for the first time in 35 years–the Tour de France ends with an individual time trial. And it’s a hard one: a 33.7 km race against the clock that takes the riders over the Col d'Èze, a tough Category 2 ascent that always features in the final stage of March’s Paris-Nice, an 8-day stage race that Tour contenders often use to build form during the first part of their seasons.

This might bode well for American fans–for two reasons. First, the last time the Tour de France ended with an individual time trial, American Greg Lemond defeated France’s Laurent Fignon–who entered the day wearing the yellow jersey–to win the Tour by eight seconds.

And this year’s winner of Paris-Nice–which finished with a stage over the Col d'Èze–was American Matteo Jorgenson (Visma-Lease a Bike), a 24-year-old from Idaho who took the yellow jersey on that final stage. Jorgenson will be lining up at this year’s Tour; could history repeat itself? We can’t wait to find out.

When it comes to watching the Tour de France, you’ve got lots of options. NBC’s Peacock ($5.99/month or $59.99/year) streams all events organized by A.S.O., which means you can watch the Tour de France now and then the Tour de France Femmes in August. (And if you’re looking for ad-free coverage, you’ll need a subscription to Peacock Premium Plus, which runs $11.99 per month or $119.99 for the year.)

The Peacock app is available on Roku, Apple devices, Android and AndroidTV devices, Google platforms, Chromecast, Xbox consoles, PlayStation 4 and 5 consoles, VIZIO SmartCast TVs, and LG Smart TVs. You can also watch online via the Peacock website.

If you have a good cable package and prefer conventional viewing on your television, you’re in luck: NBC will offer the race to cable subscribers via the USA Network and CNBC. Live coverage often starts around 7 a.m. EDT, so 9-to-5ers will likely need to record each stage and watch later. (Check the full schedule for details.)

If you’re in Canada, FloBikes ($29.99/month CDN) is the best way to watch the Tour de France. All 21 stages are available live and on-demand on FloBikes.com, the FloSports iOS app, and the FloSports app for Amazon FireTV, Roku, and Apple TV.

Denmark’s Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma) won the 2023 Tour de France, defeating Slovenia’s Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates) to defend his title from 2022. The two champions engaged in a tense battle during the first two weeks of the race and entered the second Rest Day separated by just ten seconds on the Tour’s General Classification.

But Vingegaard exploded at the start of the third week, crushing Pogačar in an individual time trial on Stage 16 and then dropping him in the Alps on Stage 17. In just two stages, the Dane’s lead went from ten seconds to more than seven minutes. Pogačar saved face by winning Stage 20, but for the second year in a row, the winner of back-to-back Tours in 2020 and 2021 was forced to settle for second place–and the white jersey as the Tour’s Best Young Rider. Pogačar’s teammate, Great Britain’s Adam Yates–won Stage 1 and wore the Tour’s first yellow jersey–finished third overall.

Belgium’s Jasper Philipsen (Alpecin-Deceuninck) was without question the Tour’s best sprinter. The Belgian won four stages and ran away with the green jersey as the winner of the Tour’s Points Classification. Italy’s Giulio Ciccone (Lidl-Trek) won the polka dot jersey as the Tour’s King of the Mountains.

Jonas Vingegaard-Hansen (Visma-Lease a Bike)

At this point in time, we’re waiting to hear if Vingegaard will even be starting this year’s Tour de France. The defending champion was one of several Tour favorites taken down in a massive crash at the Tour of the Basque Country in early April. The Dane spent twelve days in the hospital after breaking several bones and suffering a punctured lung in the fall and only resumed training a few weeks ago. Visma-Lease a Bike recently said he has a 50-50 chance of starting the race, but only will do so if the team feels he’s 100% ready to challenge for a third consecutive victory.

Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates)

The uncertainty surrounding Vingegaard’s participation makes Pogačar the top favorite. The Slovenian won back-to-back Tours in 2020 and 2021 and scored back-to-back second-place finishes behind the Dane in 2022 and 2023. He’s been training since winning six stages and the General Classification at the recent Giro d’Italia and looks on track to become the first rider since Italy’s Marco Pantani (in 1998) to win the Giro-Tour double.

Primož Roglič (BORA-hansgrohe) and Remco Evenepoel (Soudal–Quick-Step)

Vingegaard wasn’t the only Tour contender who went down in that terrible crash at the Tour of the Basque Country: Slovenia’s Primož Roglič–who was leading the race at the time–and Belgium’s Remco Evenepoel were victims as well, and both riders immediately abandoned the race. Roglič injured his knee–but suffered no major injuries–but Evenepoel needed surgery after breaking his clavicle and scapula.

Unlike Vingegaard, both riders were able to get back to training relatively quickly, and they both competed at the recent Critérium du Dauphiné . Roglič won two stages and the General Classification despite almost cracking at the end of the final stage. Evenepoel won the Dauphiné’s only individual time trial, but showed he still has some room to improve after fading in the mountains. He finished the race in seventh place overall.

Carlos Rodríguez (INEOS Grenadiers)

Rodríguez, who won a stage and finished fifth in last year’s Tour de France, won the final stage and finished fourth overall at the Dauphiné, the latest in a series of high-stage race finishes for the 23-year-old. He’ll likely be joining Colombia’s Egan Bernal (who won the Tour in 2019) and Great Britain’s Geraint Thomas (Who won the Tour in 2018) on the starting line in Florence to form one of the deepest eight-rider line-ups in this year’s race.

Matteo Jorgenson (Visma-Lease a Bike)

If Vingegaard proves unable to start the Tour, don’t be surprised if Visma-Lease a Bike turns to Matteo Jorgenson to lead the team in his place. After winning Paris-Nice and Dwars door Vlaanderen in March, the American spent much of April and all of May at training camps, building form for the summer.

Well, it must’ve worked, as the 24-year-old nearly snatched the Dauphiné from Roglič after riding away with Rodríguez at the end of the final day. In the end, he lost the race by only eight seconds–another interesting coincidence given Lemond’s margin of victory at the Tour in 1989.

The American has never captained a team at the Tour de France, but he raced the French grand tour in 2022 and 2023–so he at least knows what the Tour’s pressure-cooker atmosphere feels like. And he should benefit from the presence of his teammate Sepp Kuss , the American who shockingly won last year’s Vuelta a España and played a pivotal role in each of the six grand Tours won by the team prior to his own victory at the Vuelta last September.

How to Watch Tour de France Live Stream for Free

While the blazing heat of the summer annoys many, we couldn’t say the same about cycling fans. The end of June marks the beginning of the Tour de France that many eagerly await. This race lasts for more than 20 days, making it a real joy to witness. Unfortunately, many fans can’t witness it. They simply can’t watch the Tour de France live, leaving them discouraged. If you’re one of them, this guide is primarily for you. What if we told you you can use a free TV channel to watch Tour de France live anywhere?

Yes, we know you’ll have to pay to watch this event by default. Paid channels are ubiquitous but they cost a freaking fortune! We’ll review them later but for now, let’s skip this expensive solution and discuss free channels that broadcast Tour de France in Full HD.

Table of Contents

Free channels that broadcast the Tour de France live

Free channels that broadcast this event are awesome because they do so in high quality. The best TV channels you can use are:

• ITVX (United Kingdom)
• France TV (France)

You can immediately anticipate their differences. ITVX is based in the UK and provides English commentary. Conversely, France TV is a French TV channel with French commentary. We think ITVX is a better option here.

Regardless of the channel you pick, both are region-locked to their respective countries. ITVX works exclusively in the UK, while France TV is only available for French residents. This begs the question of how to stream the Tour de France live for free on them.

Well, according to many people online, using a VPN seems to rectify the issue of geo-blocks. A VPN service like NordVPN is frequently mentioned as the go-to option. Connecting to a server in the UK or France with it immediately unblocks ITVX and France TV respectively.

VPNs aren’t free, although some of them are, but NordVPN, in particular, isn’t. This isn’t a problem in our book because this provider can be used for free, which we’ll explain in a minute. For now, we’ll clarify that ITVX and France TV will cover the entire event.

The Tour de France live-stream starts on the 29th of June and ends on the 21st of July.

Watch ITV from anywhere with NordVPN

How to Watch Tour de France Live Worldwide?

With this event’s popularity through the Eiffel Tower’s roof, ITVX and France TV surely aren’t the only TV channels where you can live-stream Tour de France.

We have plenty more channels to cover, especially paid options that aren’t exactly the definition of “value.”

Where to Watch Tour de France Online in the USA?

There are plentiful channels in the USA that broadcast this event. For example, we can mention Peacock TV as the cheapest one. It’s around $5.99 a month but doesn’t offer a free trial that you can use to enjoy the race for free.

Moving on, people in the USA can use Sling TV for the same purpose. At $20 a month , it’s not that big of a deal. However, it’s much more expensive than NordVPN, which costs a tad over $3.4 a month instead. Sling TV doesn’t have a money-back guarantee, though.

US TV channels that stream Tour de France also include YouTube TV and fuboTV . However, they cost $72.99 and $79.99 a month respectively , making them extremely expensive. We need to mention another one, which is Hulu + Live TV at just over $76 a month.

These aren’t free channels for streaming Tour de France and their prices vary a lot. The key factor is their region-locked status, which means ALL of them work only in the USA. Worse yet, all of these channels require a US-based payment method to subscribe.

Even if you’re outside the USA and use a VPN, you’ll need to provide a credit card from this country. In the USA, you can use them without a VPN but why would you? They’re 20+ times more expensive than a VPN with a money-back guarantee that can be free in the end.

Streaming the Tour de France Live in Australia

Australians have only one option to stream this event – SBS. SBS is a completely free channel to watch the Tour de France live , making it a great potential alternative to ITVX and France TV. SBS is a video-on-demand service you can find online, limited only to Australia.

However, in the same fashion, you can use NordVPN or any other VPN with Australian servers to access it. Given that SBS is free and the VPN is free for 30 days, you won’t have to lose a dollar. If you’re in Australia, you don’t need a VPN, which is great.

Just go to SBS, create a free account, and enjoy miles of high-intensity cycling.

Watching the Tour de France in Canada

Like Australians, Canadians can stream the event on one channel. That’s FloBikes. FloBikes isn’t free and costs $29.99 a month , which isn’t a negligible price. On the brighter side, FloBikes broadcasts all stages in excellent quality, so the experience will be great.

Bear in mind that FloBikes is under a geo-restriction that limits it to working only in Canada. This is why you’ll need a VPN service to obtain a Canadian IP and unblock it. As you see, however, paid channels make zero sense when pinned against ITVX, France TV, or SBS.

They cost a lot and don’t let you be refunded after you finish Tour de France live streaming. Using a VPN with a 30-day money-back guarantee remains a superior option if you want to save money and enjoy the live stream for free.

Tour de France Live Stream in Other Countries

The channels and platforms we mentioned are very popular for watching this event but are not the only options. Let’s review other official Tour de France broadcasters around the world and see where else you can watch the event.

• Belgium – RTBF
• Denmark – DKTV2
• Spain – RTVE
• Italy – RAI
• Netherlands – NOS
• Switzerland – SRG
• Austria – Servus TV
• Europe – Eurosport
• China – CCTV, Zhibo TV
• Japan – J Sports
• New Zealand – Sky Sport
• India – MAX
• Colombia – RCN, Caracol TV
• South/Central America – ESPN
• Middle East – Abu Dhabi Media

Most of these options are free but they’re not in English. We can also see that some countries are limited to paid channels, such as Sky Sports, ESPN, Eurosport, etc. If you’re struggling with geo-blocking, you can use a VPN to access all of them.

For more official broadcasters around the world, visit the Tour de France website .

Watch Tour de France Live for Free: Here’s How

Using a VPN is a great way to access geo-blocked content. In this case, it’s easy to see why many users online opt for NordVPN. It offers servers in 111 countries, unlimited bandwidth, and some of the fastest speeds. All of these are streaming-friendly signs.

While NordVPN isn’t free at first, it can be free for 30 days . You see, this provider offers a non-conditional 30-day money-back guarantee. It works by purchasing the VPN first and getting a refund down the line, as soon as it’s requested in the aforementioned 30 days.

Try NordVPN Risk-Free

If we do the math, the Tour de France lasts way less than 30 days – 21, to be precise. This is enough money to get the VPN, watch the event for free, and still have a week left to get reimbursed. As a result, the entire solution is devoid of cost, at least after everything is over.

ITVX and France TV require no upfront payment. NordVPN requires it but when you get a refund, you’re back at zero. Here’s how to use NordVPN for free Tour de France live streaming in 2024:

• Subscribe to a VPN service. NordVPN is a preferred choice of many users with its 60% to 70% discounts for 2-year plans . Even a monthly plan is suitable for this case.
• Download and install the VPN to your device. All devices are supported and the VPN even works on Smart TVs.
• Open the VPN app and sign in with your email and password.
• Connect to a server in the UK or France, depending on the free channel you’ll use.
• Go to the selected free channel and make an account. It’s free and takes a minute.
• Watch the Tour de France livestream from start to finish.

The last step is important if you want to spend nothing. As soon as the cycling event ends, go to NordVPN’s site and contact the support team. Tell them you want a refund and they’ll issue it the same day, giving you all your money back.

Just to be clear, you don’t necessarily need a VPN for this purpose. If you’re in a country where you can watch Tour de France online for free, you’re blessed. However, you must use this service to access ITVX, France TV, or any other free channel if you’re abroad.

The question is whether free VPN services work. Well, we can say yes but only to an extent. We recently presented some free VPNs for iPhones. In this guide, we pointed out their limited speed and bandwidth, which won’t work great for streaming.

In 2024, many free VPNs offer unlimited bandwidth, such as Proton VPN and Hide.me. However, they lack streaming optimization, which results in buffering, longer loading times, and generally a sluggish experience. The biggest drawback is the lack of servers.

Proton VPN is the safest VPN you can use for free but it has zero servers in the UK, France, Australia, and many other countries. Instead, it’s capped at 5 locations, such as the USA, Poland, Romania, Japan, and the Netherlands. There’s another option – PrivadoVPN.

This VPN has servers in the UK and works with ITVX, which is phenomenal. Unfortunately, it’s limited to 10 GB of bandwidth a month, which is far from sufficient for watching Tour de France live for free from start to end. With everything said, free providers aren’t great.

We think you’d be much better off with NordVPN , or perhaps, ExpressVPN . These services have a full 30-day refund policy that can be used if you don’t want to lose money. We’ve also compared these two services for your convenience, so check out the duel if you’re in doubt.

After our detailed guide for Tour de France live streaming on free channels, we think your excitement should peak. June 29th marks a happy day for cycling fans who can revel in jaw-dropping vistas from Florence to Nice across 21 days of heavy-duty cycling.

ITVX and France TV are the best free channels you can use given their footage quality and complete coverage of the event. NordVPN can help you unblock them for free , thanks to a no-quibble 30-day money-back guarantee. You have nothing to lose and much to gain.

Try NordVPN Risk-Free Now

It’ll be interesting to see who will take the crown as the Tour de France 2024 winner. Do you cheer for Tadej Pogačar, Primož Roglič, the Danish powerhouse Jonas Vingegaard, or someone else? It’s a tough competition, with everyone eager for the yellow jersey!

Watch tour de france 2024: preview.

It is time for the second Grand Tour of the year and, for most cycling fans, the Tour de France 2024, is the big one. However, there is some shift from tradition this year. The Grand Départ is in Florence and the finish in Nice, not Paris.

It's Tadej Pogacar who they'll all be trying to keep pace with though. The Slovenian has already won the Giro d’Italia this season. Can he become the first rider to do the double since Marco Pantani in 1998?

How to watch Tadej Pogačar defend his 2024 Tour de France lead on Wednesday's stage 11

Four climbs packed into the final 42km could bring more attacks from the maillot jaune

• Free streams
• USA & Canada
• Watch any streams

After taking a backseat to the sprinters on stage 10 following the first rest day, the Tour de France continues on Wednesday with what could be an action-packed stage 11 . 

With four short but difficult climbs crammed into the final 42 kilometres, it will be a wake-up call for the climbers' legs. The mountains may not long enough for major differences, but one bad day and the rapid succession of climbs could hurt as much as a high mountain. As the cliche says, a rider can't win the Tour on a stage like that, but they can just lose it.

Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates) continues to be atop the Tour de France GC standings after stage 10 won by Jasper Philipsen (Alpecin-Deceuninck), Remco Evenepoel (Soudal-Quickstep) is second, and defending champion Jonas Vingegaard (Visma-Lease A Bike) is third.

Will that change on Wednesday? Find out how to watch the Tour de France and be sure to catch all the action on Cyclingnews .

How to watch the Tour de France online from anywhere using a VPN

If you find yourself unable to view the Tour locally, you may need a different way to watch the world's greatest cyclists -- that's where using a VPN can come in handy. A VPN is also the best way to stop your ISP from throttling your speeds on race day by encrypting your traffic, and it's also a great idea if you're traveling and find yourself connected to a Wi-Fi network, and you want to add an extra layer of privacy for your devices and logins.

With a VPN, you're able to virtually change your location on your phone, tablet or laptop to get access to the game. Most VPNs, like our  Editors' Choice, ExpressVPN , make it really easy to do this.

Using a VPN to watch or stream sports is legal in any country where VPNs are legal, including the US, UK and Canada, as long as you have a legitimate subscription to the service you're streaming. You should be sure your VPN is set up correctly to prevent leaks: Even where VPNs are legal, the streaming service may terminate the account of anyone it deems to be circumventing correctly applied blackout restrictions.

Looking for other options? Be sure to check out some of the other great  VPN deals  taking place right now.

Best VPN for streaming

ExpressVPN is our current best VPN pick  for people who want a reliable and safe VPN, and it works on a variety of devices. It's normally $13 a month, but if you sign up for an annual subscription for $100 you'll get three months free and save 49%. That's the equivalent of $6.67 a month with code  SPECIALDEAL , which should be automatically applied.

Note that ExpressVPN offers a 30-day money-back guarantee.

Quick tips for streaming Tour de France 2024 using a VPN 

• With four variables at play -- your ISP, browser, video streaming provider and VPN -- your experience and success when streaming the Tour de France live may vary.
• If you don't see your desired location as a default option for ExpressVPN, try using the "search for city or country" option.
• If you're having trouble getting the game after you've turned on your VPN and set it to the correct viewing area, there are two things you can try for a quick fix. First, log into your streaming service subscription account and make sure the address registered for the account is an address in the correct viewing area. If not, you may need to change the physical address on file with your account. Second, some smart TVs -- like Roku -- don't have VPN apps you can install directly on the device itself. Instead, you'll have to install the VPN on your router or the mobile hotspot you're using (like your phone) so that any device on its Wi-Fi network now appears in the correct viewing location.
• All of the VPN providers we recommend have helpful instructions on their main site for quickly installing the VPN on your router. In some cases with smart TV services, after you install a cable network's sports app, you'll be asked to verify a numeric code or click a link sent to your email address on file for your smart TV. This is where having a VPN on your router will also help, since both devices will appear to be in the correct location. 
• And remember, browsers can often give away a location despite using a VPN, so be sure you're using a privacy-first browser to log into your services. We normally recommend  Brave .

The 2024 Tour de France is officially underway for the 111th time, and the competition is starting to heat up. We've compiled everything you need to know about how to watch the Tour de France, including global free streaming options.

The race kicked off this year in Italy, but the riders are now cycling through France, with more than a third of the competition officially completed. The race consists of 21 stages spread across 23 days, with each leg of the competition bringing its own set of challenges. The rider with the shortest combined times will be crowned victor in Nice, France, on July 21.

Slovenian cyclist Tadej Pogacar, who won the Tour de France in 2020 and 2021, currently leads the race. He's on a hot streak following a May first-place victory at the Giro d'Italia (the first of the three annual Grand Tour races). Danish cyclist Jonas Vingegaard, who won the Tour de France in 2022 and 2023 but suffered a major crash earlier this year, is currently ranking third, trailing behind Belgian cyclist Remco Evenepoel. 

Below, we've outlined all of the ways you can live stream the Tour de France. We'll keep this page updated with start times for every stage of the tournament.

How to Watch the Tour de France 2024

The most anticipated cycling event in the world is back. Tag along and tune in to see all the action on Peacock.

The thrill of the ride is upon us once more. Cycling’s greatest event is back – the 2024 Tour de France begins Saturday, June 29. With a start in Italy and a finish in Nice, this year is unlike any other. Follow your favorite cyclists as they undertake grueling hills, long days, and tests of endurance as they move through the European countryside on their way to the finish line. Ride along and catch all 21 day-long stages of the Tour LIVE on Peacock.

What Is the Tour de France? 

The Tour de France is a massive bike race that takes cyclists on a three-week journey through France. With the exact route changing every year, this is a unique challenge unlike anything else on the cycling calendar. The race is broken up into stages, with each day covering a certain portion of the route. Each stage has its own winner, and the winner of the entire event is the person who has the fastest time of all 21 stages. Every stage matters. Even winning one, even if the rider doesn’t win the tournament, will boost that rider’s standing significantly. Only the absolute best, most competitive riders make it into the Tour de France, so tensions are high for the right to win the coveted yellow jersey.  

This year’s event challenges 176 riders. 22 teams of 8 riders will travel across 3,498 km of road, hill, and mountain terrain.  Riding for hours each day, the cyclists are put to the ultimate test as they try to have the lowest time and pass their fellow competitors, scaling mountains and gliding on roads in the process. While the course is always different and a new challenge for the riders, this year’s course is unprecedented. The Tour completely skips Paris – typically the finish line is located on the Champs-Elysées – and kicks off in Florence, Italy. With twelve new locations along the route and four countries total, this may be the best Tour de France yet.  

What’s Different About This Year? 

With the 2024 Summer Olympics beginning July 26 in Paris, the tour is having a few changes. The race avoids Paris entirely and will have its grand finale in the beautiful French Riveria. The race will travel through four countries – France, Italy, San Marino, and Monaco – and feature ten new locations along the way. Four mountain ranges will be visited – the Apennines, the Italian and French Alps, the Massif Central, and the Pyrenees – and 52,230m of total vertical gain. Rather than a sprint for the final stage, this year’s Tour de France Stage 21 will be a time trial for the first time since 1989.  

Some athletes will finish the race and only have a few days rest before gearing up to represent their country in cycling at the Paris Olympics beginning July 27. France is in the world’s eye this summer and the Tour de France is sure to bring the action.  

What Is the Schedule For the Tour de France?    

The 2024 Tour de France begins June 29, and each day will likely have some surprises. Check out the full schedule here and make sure to watch along on Peacock.

Every replay will be available after the conclusion of each stage so you never have to miss a moment. The Tour de France is the most dramatic race on the calendar, so Peacock is making sure you get to see it all. 

Which Cyclists Should I Look Out For? 

Two-time defending champion Jonas Vingegaard (Denmark) is a must- watch. Will he be able to go for three? He’s a likely favorite but not the only one. Tadej Pogačar (Slovenia) won in 2020 and 2021 and placed second in 2022 and 2023. The two will likely battle it out for the entirety of the 2024 edition, making a thrilling spectacle all fans will enjoy.  

But don’t count others out! Remco Evenepoel (Belgium) is debuting at the 2024 Tour de France and a young up-and-comer to watch at 23 -years old. Another possible rising star is Canada’s Derek Gee. A few American riders will be in the mix, including Neilson Powless, Sean Quinn, and Matteo Jorgenson. Brothers Simon and Adam Yates (United Kingdom) will compete for different teams. France’s David Gaudu and Ecuador’s Richard Carapaz may also create a stir. Anything could happen, and all of these cyclists will give it their all the entire Tour.  

Who will cycle to victory at the 2024 Tour de France? With so many changes and new additions, along with the backdrop of the Olympics as another opportunity to impress on the world stage, this is the race to watch.

How can I watch the Tour de France for free?

† CableTV.com utilizes paid Amazon links. Amazon.com Price; $39.99 (as of 6/20/24 10:45 a.m. CT). Read full disclaimer .

The most convenient way to watch the Tour de France for free is by using an over-the-air (OTA) antenna to pick up your local NBC station. Unfortunately, NBC doesn’t show a lot of race coverage—only three Saturday presentations. But it never hurts having an antenna in your TV setup.

If you don’t have an antenna, most cost between $20.00 and $60.00. We recommend the Mohu Leaf 50 for its 60-mile range and slim design. But you’ll want to verify the distance of your nearest NBC station by entering your zip code into the Federal Communications Commission’s Reception Map Tool . That’ll help determine if you need a more robust antenna, which we feature on our Best OTA Antennas page.

Can I stream the Tour de France for free? You can watch select Tour de France stages for free using a live TV streaming trial . Otherwise, you can also catch free race recaps on NBC Sports’ YouTube channel .

How to watch stage 10 of the Tour de France: can Cavendish take his tally to 36?

The race resumes with a sprint stage into Saint-Amand-Montrond

• FREE live streams
• Watch from anywhere

Watch stage 10 of the Tour de France as the race resumes after a much needed day off. It's 187km pan-flat sprint stage from Orléans to Saint-Amand-Montrond that a certain Mark Cavendish may fancy as the cherry on his 2024 cake.

Read on and we'll show you how to watch the Tour de France 2024 live streams from anywhere with a VPN , and potentially for FREE .

Tour de France 2024 stage 10 live stream starts at 11.45 GMT. • FREE STREAMS —   Watch on ITVX (UK) SBS (Australia) RAIplay (Italy) RTBF (Belgium) France.tv (France) •  U.S. — Watch on Peacock •   Canada — Watch on FloBikes •   U.K. — Watch on Discovery+ • Watch anywhere — Try NordVPN

Following a crazy first week of action and intrigue, just 96 seconds separate the top four of Primož Roglič, Jonas Vingegaard, Remco Evenepoel and the leader Tadej Pogačar. It won't be an easy day at the front, though. The sprinters will be looking for blood, especially Jasper Philipsen of Alpecin-Deceuninck. He was the top fast man last year but has not found that form in 2024 so far and, although he's been close, he is desperate for a win.

The only sprinter to have two wins in this Tour is Biniam Girmay, so he is now the hot favourite. Wins feed confidence and, as the holder of the green sprint jersey, he will want as many points as he can get each day to protect his lead.

Of course never count out Cavendish. He's reached the magic 35 wins but it's in his DNA to want more, so we should be set for another thrilling finish, particularly with that monkey off the Manxman's back? We have all the details for how to watch the Tour de France just below, including TV channels and free streams.

Philipsen ends Tour de France drought with stage victory

Jasper Philipsen put the frustrations of a difficult opening week behind him as he sprinted to victory on stage 10 of the Tour de France.

In the opening nine stages of this Tour, Philipsen had two second places and was relegated from another for deviating from his line, but it all came together in Saint-Amand-Montrond as he comfortably beat Biniam Girmay and Pascal Ackermann to the line.

Mark Cavendish, a winner on a similar finish here back in 2013, found himself out of position in the final kilometres and was unable to contest the sprint.

Instead the celebrations belonged to Philipsen and his Alpecin-Deceuninck squad, who felt they had a point to prove after watching rivals Girmay, Cavendish and Dylan Groenewegen prosper in the opening week.

“I think you can say [it is relief],” Philipsen said. “Last week was not a great week for us with some bad luck of course. It is a big relief, we can finally show our strength together with the lead-out train. We did finally what we came for and we could line it up, a perfect job from the team.

“I think everybody has been growing in this Tour. Maybe we didn’t start in our very best shape, but we all feel healthy, we feel good and we’re happy we can start the second week with a win.

“It was a tough week, it’s already stage 10 and there have been five sprints without a win so finally today we can do what we came for. The team kept believing and everybody deserved a win.”

The sprint finish meant no changes at the top of the general classification, with Tadej Pogacar leading by 33 seconds from Remco Evenepoel, and defending champion Jonas Vingegaard 75 seconds down before Wednesday’s return to the mountains and a stage to the ski resort of Le Lioran.

Philipsen’s Alpecin-Deceuninck team were among the few to hold their lead-out train together in a scrappy finish to the 187km stage from Orleans as they negotiated a twisty finale through town.

Philipsen had faced criticism in the opening week for some of his tactics in the sprints – and the deviation that saw him relegated from second place on stage six in Dijon.

But this time world champion Mathieu van der Poel delivered the perfect lead-out to put the Belgian in position to deliver victory.

Cavendish, looking to double up after his record-breaking 35th career Tour stage win last week, had been on the wheels of his Astana Qazaqstan team-mates but they lost ground on a roundabout five kilometres from the line and were then split up.

Eleven years ago, the Manxman triumphed from a much-reduced sprint on this finish after crosswinds had split the peloton.

There was the risk of splits again on the exposed roads of central France, but this time the teams were more alert to the danger.

Speeds were above 70kmh as they came out of the Sologne forest and into the danger zone with around 60km to go, but no splits developed and the pack came to Saint-Amand-Montrond as one. PA

Cavendish is nowhere to be seen. This is going to be between Philipsen, Girmay, Gaviria and van Aert.

Under the flamme rouge we go and all the big hitters are there.

1.5km to go

Astana Qazaqstan hit the front but Cavendish is further back.

Girmay is on the wheel of Philipsen with De Lie on Girmay’s wheel.

Cavendish has dropped back a bit but is in a similar position to the likes of Girmay and Philipsen.

Traffic islands are causing an issue for the riders with Philipsen dropping back a little. We hit the safe zone for all the GC riders.

Cavendish is well positioned near the front with three teammates in front of him.

We have got over the little uncategorised climb and now on a descent so the speed is very high.

The whole peloton is bunched up together as we hit 8km to go. The likes of Philipsen and De Lie are trying to make their way towards the front.

We have a small climb that should not be an issue for the sprinters but you never know what might happen.

We are now within 10km of the finish. The general classification teams are keeping their leaders safe at the front and the leadout trains for the sprinters are beginning to form.

Astana Qazaqstan Sport Director Mark Renshaw has told his team to move up to the front.

Currently on the front we have Visma-Lease a Bike, Team UAE Emirates, Lidl-Trek, Israel-Premier Tech and Ineos Grenadiers and Soudal-Quick Step. Those are mostly general classification teams looking after their leaders.

We are inside the final 20km on stage 10. Who will come out on top? Will anyone try an audacious one-man attack?

De Lie has made it easily back into the peloton.

In the final stages of today’s stage we have three changes of direction so positioning will be pretty important for the sprinter leadouts.

Meanwhile one of the sprinters in contention for the victory, Arnaud De Lie, just had a mechanical so is making his way back into the peloton, which should not be an issue.

🛠️ Puncture for 🇧🇪 @Arnaud_De_Lie inside the final 30km. The Belgian Champion returns quickly to the peloton. 🛠️ Crevaison pour 🇧🇪 @Arnaud_De_Lie dans les 30 derniers kilomètres.

We have had four bunch sprint finishes so far:

Stage three into Turin- Biniam Girmay

Stage five into Saint Vulbas- Mark Cavendish

Stage six into Dijon- Dylan Groenewegen

Stage eight into Colombey-les-Deux-Eglises- Biniam Girmay

Things have massively settled down from where they were 15-20km ago. The pace has dropped to around 40km/h and it is an almost guaranteed bunch sprint finish now.

Here is a snippet from our feature on Mark Cavendish which you can find here , where you can read about Cavendish’s win into Saint-Amand-Montrond in 2013:

“The vast majority of his wins have been a result of a lead-out train – his HTC-Highroad squad perfected the art – but Cavendish is a natural-born racer who has the ability to find gaps when most cannot see them, and opportunities when others do not. During the wind-battered 13th stage of the 2013 Tour, Cavendish spotted a chance and went for it. While his sprint rivals were caught out by echelons, Cavendish went toe-to-toe with Peter Sagan before pulling off what was, perhaps, the most impressive win of his career – a victory a seasoned classics rider would be proud of.”

Some interesting costumes on show:

We have under 50km left on today’s stage and it looks like we are all set for a sprint finish in Saint-Amand-Montrond. Remember Mark Cavendish won the stage the last time the Tour finished there.

We have hit the exposed roads but with the winds not being too strong will the peloton break up?

It is looking unlikely as the pace has settled down.

Visma-Lease a Bike hit the front of the peloton as it is being strung out.

There is plenty of road furniture as we hit Issoudun which is only going to increase the tension in the peloton. It had been calm for so long but it is the complete opposite at the moment.

The pace is ramped up even further as Astana Qazaqstan and Ineos Grenadiers accelerate as we hit a roundabout and change direction.

Cavendish has four of his Astana Qazaqstan teammates lined up in front of him on the left-hand side of the road. Ineos Grenadiers and UAE Team Emirates are in the middle with Visma-Lease a Bike on the right. Our yellow jersey man Tadej Pogacar is situated in the middle of the road, around three or four rows back. The Lidl-Trek riders are being told over team radio that the peloton is going to be nervous.

The pace has certainly ramped up to just over 50km/h. We have a direction change coming up and the peloton is a lot more serious now than it was a couple of hours ago.

Meanwhile in Italy...

New Zealand joins the Giro d’Italia Women roll of honour thanks to Niamh Fisher-Black, who took advantage of Team SD Worx - Protime’s numerical superiority in Toano to claim her second win of the season. Fisher-Black answered an attack launched by Mavi Garcia with 2km to go. The New Zealander counterattacked on the toughest part of the final climb, the last 1000 metres with double-digit gradients, leaving Garcia behind and winning by 6 seconds over a trio made up of her team-mate and new Maglia Rossa Lotte Kopecky, Juliette Labous, and the Maglia Rosa Elisa Longo Borghini. In the general classification Kopecky (13”) and Labous (25”) moved up to second and third place respectively, with the top 5 completed by the Maglia Bianca Niedermayer (59”) and the winner of the day, and new Maglia Azzurra, Fisher-Black (1’00”).

The man in the green jersey, Biniam Girmay (Intermarché-Wanty), has just stopped for a change to his back wheel.

🛠 Rear wheel change for 🇪🇷 @GrmayeBiniam . He is making his way back to the peloton 💚 🛠 Victime d'une crevaison, @GrmayeBiniam reprend sa place dans le peloton 💚 #TDF2024 pic.twitter.com/9nEIWAhbXH — Tour de France™ (@LeTour) July 9, 2024

The Astana Qazaqstan riders have been warned about the wind over their team radio and told to get themselves into a good position. That is why they are at the front of the peloton. The last time we finished in Saint-Amand-Montrond at the Tour, Mark Cavendish won and the stage got significantly impacted by crosswinds that day.

The roads ahead will be more exposed so crosswinds could prove problematic for the peloton.

We have had some changeable conditions so far. We had rain earlier but now the peloton is riding in beautiful sunshine. Remember we heard over the Lidl-Trek team radio that the longer they take to get to the finish the wetter they will get. Thunderstorms are forecast for later.

100km to go

The pace is just starting to step up as teams jostle for position at the front of the peloton with the threat of crosswinds coming up. You do not want to be near the back and get caught out by those winds.

We have just dipped below the 100km-to-go mark.

106km to go

Today is not expected to have an impact on the general classification but with crosswinds expected later in the stage, who knows! We can now hear from the man in yellow, Tadej Pogacar, ahead of today’s stage:

127km to go

Goossens has left Vanhoucke behind and gone off on his own. Vanhoucke has dropped back now to the peloton.

Goossens was presumably being used by Intermarché-Wanty to take points of Biniam Girmay’s rivals for the green jersey.

128km to go

The front duo hit the intermediate sprint first so the maximum 20 points and 17 for second are gone.

The peloton catch the second group before they hit the intermediate sprint. We nearly have a crash as we come towards the sprint line as Philipsen was looking over his shoulder. He looked over his left and did not know that Girmay was on his right. Girmay was so, so close to hitting the barriers as Philipsen did not know he was there. The Belgian has developed a reputation when it comes to these sprints. Philipsen comes across the line third overall. 

132km to go

We are coming to the intermediate sprint at Romorantin-Lanthenay but the big points will not available to the peloton. It looks like the maximum for anyone in the peloton will be 10 points.

135km to go

The front duo of Goossens and Vanhoucke have a 25-second lead over Madouas, Geniets and Van Gils. It is then another 50 seconds back to the peloton.

138km to go

Now we have two Groupama-FDJ riders attack; Valentin Madouas and Kevin Geniets. Maxim Van Gils had dropped back a little from the front two but accelerates again when he seems the Groupama-FDJ duo coming through.

140km to go

We have an attack! Two riders from Lotto Dstny, Maxim Van Gils and Harm Vanhoucke, and one from Intermarché-Wanty, Kobe Goossens, have accelerated out of the front of the peloton.

143km to go

The Lidl-Trek team have been told over their team radio that the later the stage finishes the wetter it will be as thunderstorms are coming.

We have around 10km until the intermediate sprint at Romorantin-Lanthenay.

145km to go

A special milestone for Geraint Thomas today:

148km to go

More news! During the rest day Michael Morkov (Astana Qazaqstan) announced that he will retire at the end of this season. Morkov will be representing Denmark at the Olympics on the road and on the track.

🇩🇰 VIDEO: @MichaelMorkov We are really proud and happy that the final year of your career you are spending with us, being part of the cycling history!

153km to go

We have Olympics news! Nations have been announcing their teams for the Olympic Road Race. Julian Alaphilippe has been named in the French team alongside Kevin Vauquelin, who won stage two, Valentin Madouas and Christophe Laporte. Vauquelin will also compete in the individual time trial as France’s sole entrant. 

Spain have also announced their team which includes Juan Ayuso, Oier Lazkano and and Alex Aranburu. Ayuso will also compete in the individual time trial.

159km to go

We spoke about storms later in the stage but rain is already falling. It could be a little on and off.

162km to go

Things are very steady in the peloton with no attacks so far. There is a risk of storms towards the end of the stage and we could have crosswinds later so it could very much be a case of the calm before the storm.

167km to go

Biniam Grimay (Intermarché-Wanty) became the first black African to win a stage at the Tour on stage three in Turin but then made it two stage victories in Colombey-les-Deux-Eglises on stage eight. He currently holds the green jersey (points classification) and here he is speaking ahead of today’s stage:

172km to go

Today’s stage should not have an impact on the general classification but here is the top five:

• Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates) 35hrs 42mins 42secs
• Primoz Roglic (Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe) +1min 36secs
• Juan Ayuso (UAE Team Emirates) +2min 16secs

177km to go

Here is how the top five in the points classification (green jersey) looks after stage nine:

• Biniam Girmay (Intermarché-Wanty) 224pts
• Jasper Philipsen (Alpecin-Deceuninck) 128
• Anthony Turgis (TotalEnergies) 96
• Arnaud De Lie (Lotto Dstny) 92

We do have an intermediate sprint at Romorantin-Lanthenay with 130km left, which is in around 55km time.

181km to go

Amidst the chaos of the gravel sections on stage nine on Sunday, Jonas Vingegaard (Visma-Lease a Bike) had to ride a significant portion of the stage on his teammate Jan Tratnik’s bike. Vingegaard will be back on his own bike today!

The last time a Tour stage finished in Saint-Amand-Montrond, Mark Cavendish was victorious back in 2013. Here he is speaking ahead of today’s stage:

"In those days it was just left to us (Omega Pharma - Quick-Step) to control it for a bunch sprint. There was a little bit of wind, so we thought, 'go', we hadn't planned it or anything" Mark Cavendish remembers his stage win in Saint-Amand-Montrond in 2013 🇮🇲🚀 #TDF2024 pic.twitter.com/yjWi87WoGo — ITV Cycling (@itvcycling) July 9, 2024

We hit kilometre zero and off we go on stage 10!

No sign of anyone interested yet in forming a breakaway. A quiet start to stage 10.

Stage 10 profile

Stage 10 preview

Good afternoon and welcome to stage 10 of the 2024 Tour de France. We are coming off the first rest day of the 2024 Tour and it felt like everyone needed it. Before the rest day Anthony Turgis (TotalEnergies) claimed victory on stage nine on a dramatic day over 14 gravel sections to make it three French victories at the Tour this year. Turgis pipped Tom Pidcock (Ineos Grenadiers) and Derek Gee (Israel-Premier Tech) at the line as the riders had to negotiate all those gravel sections. Despite worrying moments for a few of the general classification contenders, all of them came in together with the same time.

Today is set to be a day for the sprinters as we have a 187.3km flat stage from Orléans to Saint-Amand-Montrond. Mark Cavendish (Astana Qazaqstan) has one stage victory to his name, the historic 35th on stage five, whilst Biniam Girmay (Intermarché-Wanty) already has two. He is currently in possession of the green jersey (points classification) and has a near 100-point advantage over Jasper Philipsen (Alpecin-Deceuninck), who won four stages at the Tour last year but has yet to win a stage so far this year. Others to look our for include Arnaud De Lie (Lotto Dstny) and Dylan Groenewegen (Jayco-AlUla).

Today should not have any ramifications on the general classification, where Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates) has a 33-second lead over Remco Evenepoel (Soudal-Quick Step) and a one minute and 15 second-advantage over Jonas Vingegaard (Visma-Lease a Bike).

Could Cavendish make it 36 stage victories today? Will Philipsen secure his first at this year’s Tour? Can Girmay continue his strong form with stage victory number three? All those questions will be answered in the next few hours. Stay with us for all the action from stage 10.

Saturday’s Stage 8 will take the cyclists on a hilly ride to Colombey-les-Deux-Eglises, the home and final resting place of former French President Charles de Gaulle.

Here is everything you need to know about the 2024 Tour de France:

Coverage of each day’s stage will begin on Peacock. Stage 8 (July 6) and 14 (July 13) will be on NBC at 8 a.m. EST. Finally, the penultimate Stage 20 coverage will be replayed on NBC starting at 4 p.m. EST. Each stage will kick off between 6 and 7:30 a.m. EST, except for the 21st and final stage, which starts at 10:10 a.m. EST.

The event started one week earlier than due to the start of the Paris Olympics on July 26. That’s also why the Tour de France will not end in the “City of Light” for the first time. It’s also the first time the Tour ends with a time trial since 1989.

What is the Tour de France?

The Tour features four summit finishes and two time trials. The vertical gain will eclipse 52,000 meters over the 21 stages.

The 19th stage climb up Cime de la Bonette will reach an elevation of 2,802 meters (1.75 miles), which is the highest-altitude summit in modern Tour history. It was last on the route in 2008.

Danish rider Jonas Vingegaard won the 2023 Tour de France, his second straight victory in the event. If Vingegaard wins again this year, he would be the first cyclist to win the event three years in a row since Chris Froome from 2015 to 2017.
