The 2023 UCI Cycling World Championships was the inaugural edition of the UCI Cycling World Championships organised by the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI), held between 3 and 13 August 2023 in Glasgow.[1]

The UCI Cycling World Championships, to be held every four years in the year preceding the Olympic Games, brings together various disciplines of cycling for them to be held as part of one event, including the UCI Road World Championships, UCI Mountain Bike World Championships and UCI Track Cycling World Championships.[2]

The event had a budget of £45–50 million, with funding coming from various local and national bodies, including the Scottish Government and UK Sport.[3] Glasgow City Council provided £15 million to the championships after it was predicted the economic boost would total £67 million.[4]

Championships and locations

[edit]

The 2023 UCI Cycling World Championships hosted individual UCI World Championships in 13 different disciplines, and was the world's biggest ever cycling event to date.[5] It was confirmed that the following events would feature, with the full schedule announced on 8 September 2022.[6]

In total, over 200 world champions were crowned[7] and 2,600 athletes travelled to compete at the events with a further 8,000 cyclists taking part in a mass participation event.[1] Disciplines included events for professional and amateurs, able-bodied and para cyclists, youth and age-grade athletes

The UCI Cyclo-cross World Championships, which are considered a winter discipline, and the UCI Gravel World Championships which were introduced after the awarding of the 2023 championships, and require a very specific terrain, are the only UCI disciplines not included, while junior and under-23 track cycling was also not included.
