Tour of Chongming Island information

The 2026 Tour of Chongming Island will be held between October 13-15 as part of the final races in the Women's WorldTour.

The Tour of Chongming Island was one of the first races cancelled from its original May spot on the calendar due to the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic in 2020. Although the three-day race was supposed to be part of the UCI's revised late-season calendar that year from October 23-25, it did not make a return until 2023.

The Tour of Chongming Island is traditionally a sprinter's affair with three pan-flat stages that cater to the fastest women in the peloton.

In 2025, Australia's Josie Talbot (Liv AlUla Jayco) sprinted to victory from a leading group of ten to claim her first WorldTour win on stage 3. Anne Knijnenburg (VolkerWessels) emerged as overall winner by a single second ahead of Sofie van Rooijen (UAE Team ADQ).
