The 2023 Festival Elsy Jacobs will run over two stages, with the first running over 111.1km from Luxembourg – Steinfort and the second 115.8km from Luxembourg to Garnich. Both days are up and down throughout the racing, creating ample opportunities for splits and attacks.

In 2022, after Anna Henderson won the prologue Marta Bastianelli took victory on the first stage to step into the yellow jersey of the leader. In the second stage Bastianelli came over the line behind Veronica Ewers. That was enough for the UAE Team ADQ rider to holding firm on the overall.

Cyclingnews is the world's leader in English-language coverage of professional cycling. Started in 1995 by University of Newcastle professor Bill Mitchell, the site was one of the first to provide breaking news and results over the internet in English. The site was purchased by Knapp Communications in 1999, and owner Gerard Knapp built it into the definitive voice of pro cycling. Since then, major publishing house Future PLC has owned the site and expanded it to include top features, news, results, photos and tech reporting. The site continues to be the most comprehensive and authoritative English voice in professional cycling.
