Decide for yourself from where you will follow the battle for the rainbow jersey and what kind of VIP experience you want: at the start or finish line, with a view of the sea or overlooking the Flemish Grape Region, or while enjoying a gourmet meal at a personalised table. Find out more about the 4 host cities where you can enjoy an amazing VIP experience during the UCI Road World Championships:
• Knokke-Heist • Bruges • Antwerp • Leuven The racers will realise first-hand that Flanders is not as flat as people think during the road race.
