Arrival of the Tour de France 2024 in Nice: Practical information

In Nice on July 21, 2024, the arrival of the Tour de France will be a spectacular event. However, it will be necessary to be well organized to take advantage of a strategic location. The general public will not have direct access to the finish line on Place Masséna, where a grandstand will be reserved for the organization and partners.

On the Promenade des Anglais, between the Quai des États-Unis and the Théâtre de Verdure, additional stands will also be reserved for partners and guests. For spectators, the best locations will be the northern sidewalk of the Baie des Anges or the Fontaine du Soleil, where a limited-access public area will enable the riders to be seen in the final meters.
