Tour of Scandinavia ‘bowing out at the top’ and ends efforts to revive Women’s WorldTour stage race

Revitalisation efforts to breathe new life into the Tour of Scandinavia came to a halt for a second consecutive year as organisers announced Thursday “the end of the road” for the Women’s WorldTour stage race. 

Since its formation in 2014 as the Ladies Tour of Norway, the race has been contested nine times. In 2020, the race was cancelled due to the COVID global pandemic and in 2024 the race was not held because of a financial shortfall to produce a top-tier contest, Norway’s only Women’s WorldTour stage race.
