From a one-day event in 1927, the event has expanded to an eight-day event including U23, Junior, Time Trial and Team Time Trial events.
In February 2021, Wollongong was named a UCI Bike City - the only one in the Southern Hemisphere, and one of 18 worldwide - recognising the region's commitment to cycling as a sport, mode of transport and a lifestyle.
Today, cycling is part of the fabric of Wollongong. Visitors and locals frequent the Blue Mile shared pathway that hugs the city shoreline, the new Cringila Hills bike park, city cycleways and developing pump tracks.
It is expected that there will be:
- 1000+ riders from 70+ countries
- 11 World Championship races over eight days
- 300,000 spectators lining the course
- 300 million viewers globally
But there is so much more to see and experience in Wollongong - see here for more information about this coastal city.
