Ghent-Wevelgem 2018 will be one to remember, because we are ready for the 81st edition!

In 2018 won his third Ghent-Wevelgem after a fierce battle with all the top cyclists. This confirms that a victory of the Vanackerestraat is high on the wish list of all the top cyclists.

The international recognition as a cycling monument was acquired by the very soul of the race, the great history, the unique itinerary and the heroic honours list. A world champion has taken the first place on the winner’s podium 26 times already in Wevelgem!

Ghent-Wevelgem is one of the 10 most renowned one-day competitions in the world, so the winner will receive the maximum points for the UCI World .

For example, with the Tour of Flanders and Ghent-Wevelgem, Flanders now has 2 absolute top compe- titions belonging to this select group.

We will present once again a unique event in the world, ‘in Flanders Fields’, on Sunday, 31 March 2019. There will be no less than 7 Ghent-Wevelgem races and all of this at top level: WorldTour Men and Women’s Elite, Nations’ Cup in the U19 Juniors and the U23 Cyclists Showing Promise, the Cup of in the Novices.
