‘Passing 10,000 ticket sales demonstrates the appetite for world-class cycling in the UK’ – ticket sales soar as the Cyclo-cross World Cup comes back to Britain for the first time since 2014

The Cyclo-cross World Cup, a marquee series of the international cyclo-cross calendar, has sold out 10,000 tickets two months before the event in Glasgow, proving the strong demand for world-class cycling in the UK. Organized by the Union Cycliste International and Flanders Classics, the event is back in Britain for the first time since 2014.

The 2025-2026 UCI Cyclo-cross World Cup, which consists of 12 rounds, kicks off in Ostrava, Czech Republic, on November 27, with the third round set to be held in Kelvingrove Park, Glasgow, on December 13. British cycling champions Cameron Mason and Anna Flynn are expected to be popular home favorites. The tickets, priced at around £31.50 per adult, are selling exceptionally fast through Ticketmaster, with additional tickets being released to meet the increasing demand.

The event will then continue in Belgium, France, Spain, before concluding in the Netherlands on January 24. Darren Henry, Managing Director of British Cycling Ventures, expressed delight at the ticket sales and the potential for building a portfolio of major events across different cycling disciplines to attract new audiences and provide more opportunities for fans.
