Cycling broadcasting in the UK shifts to TNT Sports, impacting access to major events like the Tour de France.

Significant changes are on the horizon for cycling fans in the UK as Eurosport announces its exit from live cycling broadcasting. Effective February 28, 2025, viewers will no longer have access to major cycling events, including the prestigious Tour de France, through Eurosport. Instead, these events will transition to TNT Sports, a premium channel that requires a subscription for access.

To continue enjoying live cycling coverage, fans will need to subscribe to TNT Sports at a monthly cost of £30.99, although it may be available at a reduced rate as an add-on to certain TV packages. This shift marks a notable change in how cycling enthusiasts will consume their favorite sport, as live broadcasts will no longer be available at no extra cost to Sky TV and Virgin Media customers.

Looking ahead, the situation will further evolve as Warner Bros. Discovery has secured exclusive rights to the Tour de France, meaning there will be no free-to-air live coverage in the UK starting in 2026. While highlights and some cycling content will still be accessible on free-to-air channels like Quest, the absence of live race coverage will undoubtedly impact viewership and engagement.

In recent cycling events, the Tour Down Under concluded with impressive performances from riders such as Jhonatan Narvaez and Noemi Rüegg. However, there have been no new results or updates specifically from the UK since January 28, 2025. For cycling enthusiasts eager to stay informed, platforms like Cycling News and Cycling Weekly will continue to provide coverage and insights into the evolving landscape of cycling broadcasting.
