GRAND DÉPART FLORENCE ÉMILIE-ROMAGNE 2024

The 111th edition of the Tour de France will start from Florence on Saturday,
29 June 2024 in a historic first for the Grande Boucle.


Grand Départ en Italie - #TDF2024

Editorials


THE LONGEST WAIT, CHRISTIAN PRUDHOMME, DIRECTOR OF THE TOUR DE FRANCE

Florence had been talking to us about it for a very long time, Emilia-Romagna
nurtured its burning desire, and then Piedmont came on board — Italy truly
raised its ambitions to the power of three to host the Grand Départ.

Their ardour and synergies will right a historic wrong as the Tour de France
gets under way on the Italian Peninsula for the first time and the riders take
their first pedal strokes in this true-blue cycling nation. Exactly a century
after Ottavio Bottecchia became the first cyclist from the other side of the
Alps to win the Tour, the peloton will go from the birthplace of Gino Bartali, a
champion Righteous Among the Nations, to that of Marco Pantani, the
unforgettable Il Pirata, worshipped without measure, before paying tribute to
the campionissimo, Fausto Coppi. These three stages will take us through
majestic landscapes in which the leaders will be forced to take matters into
their own hands from the opening weekend. It is going to be magical.


JUST LIKE HOME, STEFANO BONACCINI, PRESIDENT OF THE REGION EMILIA-ROMAGNA ET
DARIO NARDELLA, MAYOR OF FLORENCE

"Florence and Emilia-Romagna are physically linked by mountains. The Apuan Alps,
the most incredible stretch of the chain surrounding Tuscany, which yielded the
marble for Michelangelo’s sublime creations, extend all the way to the
Emilia-Romagna Apennines, a mountain range carpeted with charming villages
steeped in history on the road from Dante’s birthplace to his tomb in Ravenna.

The other tie that binds our city and our region is our passion for cycling.
Three of our scions —Gino Bartali, Gastone Nencini and Marco Pantani— have won
the Tour, and our other champions are too numerous to mention. Yet one name
stands out from the legend: Alfonsina Strada, a pioneer from Castelfranco
Emilia, who in 1924 became the first —and only— woman to take part in the men’s
Giro d’Italia. For the Tour de France, this Grand Départ from Florence and
Emilia-Romagna will feel just like home."

BREATHTAKING, GROUNDBREAKING

Florence is the cradle of art, literature and architecture, the birthplace of
the Renaissance and of the Italian language. Nestled on a territory that for
centuries has been characterized by the perfect balance between man and nature,
it is a destination for millions of visitors from all over the world every year.
Today it is a city proud of its past and future oriented, focused on sustainable
development, creativity and innovation.

Emilia-Romagna is a unique region. Land of doing and land of beauty, with the
Apennines as great green heart, the Adriatic coast, the Po river and its valley.
Via Emilia, which crosses the region and connects from Rimini to Piacenza, is
the beating heart of an area rich in culture and a millenary history. It’s a
still living legacy, welded with a present that sees Emilia-Romagna as one of
the most advanced territories in Europe, thanks to the tenacity, inspiration and
industriousness of its citizens.

The stages of the Grand Départ


STAGE 1 | FLORENCE > RIMINI | 29 JUNE 2024 | 205 KM

This postcard will provide a snapshot of the Grand Départ in Florence, the
Bartali Museum in Ponte a Ema —where the champion was born— and the finish on
the Adriatic seafront.

In sporting terms, this trek through the Apennines packs an elevation gain of
3,800 m, from the power climb of Valico Tre Faggi to steeper slopes, in the
heart of the Republic of San Marino, the last of which comes near the finish.
The first Yellow Jersey may well go to one of the contenders for the overall
title.

STAGE 2 | CESENATICO > BOLOGNE | 30 JUNE 2024 | 200 KM

From the spa resort where Marco Pantani used to live, which is also his final
resting place, the peloton will ride down gorgeous plains before hitting the
first two climbs, including the Cima Gallisterna, coming right before Imola
Circuit, where Julian Alaphilippe earned his rainbow stripes in 2020.

Another four difficulties stand between the riders and the finish line,
including two ascents to San Luca (1.9km at 10.6%) along the 666 arches of the
staircase leading to the Sanctuary. Punchers are in for a real treat.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


STAGE 3 | PLAISANCE > TURIN | 1 JULY 2024 | 225 KM

Pure sprinters will get their first chance to shine on the road from
Emilia-Romagna to Piedmont. A course with nary a bump on the road, a detour
through Lombardy, a visit to Tortona, where Fausto Coppi drew his final breath,
a romp through the Langhe, which boasts delicious truffles and wine-growing
landscapes on the UNESCO World Heritage list, some of the roads of Milan–San
Remo… Against such a jaw-dropping backdrop, any breakaways will have their work
cut out for them to stay clear and pre-empt a bunch sprint.
