The Tour de France is the world’s biggest annual sporting event.
Normally held in July, the event sees nearly 200 cyclists race over 2,000 miles in just 23 days – before finishing on the streets of Paris.
While most of the race takes part in the towns, cities, countryside and mountains of France it often starts in a different country.
Organisers say the 2027 men’s event will start in Edinburgh with the first three stages taking place in Scotland, England and Wales.
It’ll be the fifth time that the UK has partly staged the men’s event – it has previously come to the UK in 1974, 1994, 2007 and 2014.
