Fan zones

CHEER ALONG AT THE OFFICIAL FANZONES

Sharing a sporting experience is much more fun than doing it alone. That’s why three official fanzones have been set up along the route of the World Championships. At the start and passages in Beek, at Wijnandsrade Castle, and at the finish in Maastricht, fans can enjoy the event to the fullest: from live coverage on a large screen to music, food, and drinks. You can find information about accessibility for residents or visitors and the official programme here

Sportpark De Haamen, 6191 HV Beek

In Beek, gravel cycling fans will find plenty to enjoy. The Shimano United In Gravel Expo is the meeting point for anyone active in, or curious about, the gravel cycling scene. At the start location in Beek, visitors can explore and test the latest products from leading and local brands, from bikes and accessories to high-tech equipment. With the start and several passages taking place on Saturday and Sunday, you’ll see the riders here more than anywhere else. A large screen and live commentary will ensure you don’t miss anything.

Bolero Fanzone

Are you from Belgium and want to give the Belgian participants your full support? Then visit the Bolero Fanzone at the start in Beek. Bolero, the Belgian investment platform and title partner of the World Championships, invites all Belgian fans to gather in the Bolero Fanzone as a counterbalance to the Dutch Oranje legion. With Belgian beer on tap, appearances by well-known Belgians, this promises to be a special experience.

Square between Opfergelstraat and Panhuysstraat

Possibly the most scenic place to watch the World Championships: the square in front of Wijnandsrade Castle. Here too, the riders will pass several times in their pursuit of the world title. If the riders aren’t live on the course at that moment, there’s no need to worry. With live music, large screens, bouncy castles, and food and drinks, there’s plenty to enjoy all day.

Koningsplein Maastricht

Do you want to see for yourself who crosses the finish line first and takes home the rainbow jersey? Then the Fanzone at the finish in Maastricht is the place to be. After several laps through the hilly landscape, including Beek and Beekdaelen, the riders will arrive in Maastricht via De Groene Loper. This will be a unique finish for the World Championships. After the race, the winners will be honoured near the fanzone and presented with the rainbow jersey. You can also stay on afterwards for a relaxed post-race gathering. Will we see you in Maastricht?
