To help you make the most of your Tour de Concord experience, here is a list of everything that you and your family can do at the festival this weekend.

Cheer on the racers

Tour de Concord features a variety of race categories, including amateur races, a Kids 3 to 12 Fun Track Lap, and men’s and women’s pro races. All of the action takes place on a fully contained and upgraded 900-metre cycling course.

There will also be a Charity Race in support of the St. Paul’s Foundation, with teams of three cyclists competing in an 8 km race to raise funds.

St. Paul’s Foundation raises funds for equipment, life-saving research, community programs, and other essential services at St. Paul’s and other Providence Health Care hospitals and long-term care homes in BC.
