A major cycling event is coming to Milton and tickets are now on sale.

The 2023 Tissot UCI Track Nations Cup, will be held April 20-23, 2023 at the Mattamy National Cycling Centre and is considered one the biggest track cycling events on the international calendar with three rounds hosted each year.

Athletes from more than 30 countries will be taking part including some of Canada’s top racers.

The competitors will take part in all six Olympic-style events (sprint, keirin, team sprint, team pursuit, omnium and Madison), as well as elimination races over the four-day event.

“We feel privileged to have been selected by the UCI to host this prestigious event,” said Mathieu Boucher, Cycling Canada Chief Development Officer. “While the Nations Cup is a key event for our athletes in their qualifying process for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, it is also an incredible opportunity for us to connect and grow our community by inviting schools and engaging with the local community who have been so supportive. I am convinced that everyone who attends will be treated to quite a show and a festive atmosphere.”

Ticket information for the event can be found here.
