6 weeks to get fit from home: the Zwift Tour 2026 arrives with rewards and a raffle for the most loyal Zwifters

The Zwift Tour, the largest annual event on the Zwift platform, is welcoming 2026 from January 5 to February 22, with the participation of hundreds of thousands of cyclists and runners from around the world who will share kilometers in nine virtual worlds.

The Zwift Tour returns in 2026 to kick off the indoor season in style

The event, which lasts for six weeks, features a structure designed to accommodate all levels and schedules. Each stage lasts a week and will offer three distance options — Long, Standard, and Short — which can be completed in both ride and race formats. Additionally, Zwift will once again bet on a flexible model, combining scheduled activities with on-demand options, so that each athlete can integrate the Tour into their personal planning.

As a key new feature in the calendar, from February 16 to 22, a recovery week will be enabled, designed for participants to complete any stages they were unable to perform in their corresponding week.

The Zwift Tour will also have a prominent role for runners, with midweek events of about 5 km and a long race of 10 km available over the weekend, thus expanding the reach of the event beyond indoor cycling.

True to its spirit, the Zwift Tour will once again be a true celebration with large groups and a festive atmosphere. Throughout the event, participants will be able to unlock badges and exclusive gear within the platform.

The most ambitious Zwifters will be able to take on the Ultimate Challenge, which consists of completing all three distances — long, standard, and short — in each of the six stages. Those who complete the challenge will receive a bonus of 12,500 XP and unlock the exclusive Afterparty Cap.

Raffle and limited edition kit

All participants who complete the Ultimate Challenge will automatically enter the raffle for a TDZ x Pedal Mafia Zwift Ride Smart Frame, a unique piece created specifically for the event.

Additionally, those who want to take the spirit of the Zwift Tour off the screen can purchase the limited edition Zwift x Pedal Mafia Tour de Zwift kit, available worldwide through Pedal Mafia.
