Cycle City Label of the 2025 Tour de France : Applications are now open!

Over the centuries, France’s capital has earned unrivaled prestige that has led to it becoming the world’s leading tourist destination. Its success is as much down to the majesty of its monuments, from the Cathedral of Notre-Dame to the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, and the Arc de Triomphe, as it is to the cultural vibrancy that drives it and to that elusive “Parisian chic” that continues to fascinate. The City of Light has also established itself as one of the world’s major sporting venues thanks to regular events such as the Roland Garros tennis tournament and the finale of the Tour de France... and of course, the organization of the Olympic and Paralympic Games in the summer of 2024, which featured innovations that have already made sporting history, such as the opening ceremony in the heart of the city and a marathon open to all.
