23 Jul 2026 Get prepared for Stage 5 of the womens' cycle tour of Britain
Warwickshire will take centre stage in the 2026 Lloyds Tour of Britain Women, with the final stage starting and finishing in Leamington Spa on Sunday 23 August.
The Lloyds Tour of Britain represents a significant opportunity for the local economy, especially for retail, hospitality and tourism businesses along the route. Previous stages of the Tour have seen spikes in footfall, spend and visibility for local businesses, so the Tour is expected to provide a welcome boost.
If you are a local business, community group or town/parish council and would like to find out more about the tour, then join the WCC Tour of Britain webinar on Tuesday 4 August at 6pm, where they’ll share ideas on how to maximise the opportunities for your business or local community from the Tour.
If your business is located along, or near the route, you may need to consider whether access to your premises will be affected for staff or visitors. You can find approximate timings for any road closures on this route page.
