The Volta Ciclista a Catalunya is preparing a second edition for a consolidation in the international calendar of women's cycling, and it will do it again with a high-level participation. The Catalan women's cycling race, which will announce all its details together with the 104th men's edition in the official presentation this Friday March 14th, will once again have some of the best teams in the world on 6, 7 and 8 June. Reigning champion Marianne Vos' team, Team Visma | Lease a Bike, is one of four UCI Women's WorldTeams - the world's top class - along with FDJ-Suez, Movistar Team and Human Powered Health, leading a list of eighteen confirmed teams that could be expanded by two more in the coming weeks.
After a very successful debut last 2024 with a historic victory by Marianne Vos, the women's stage race of Volta a Catalunya is warming up for its 2nd edition, which will be held in three stages between 6 and 8 June 2025. Consolidated in the UCI international calendar as a 2.1 category race, the Catalan event currently has a peloton of eighteen teams confirmed to seek to add their name to the list of winners of the event of the historic Catalan organisation, twelve of them of international category.
Among the pack of teams of this 2nd Volta a Catalunya, four will be UCI Women's WorldTeams, the highest category of women's cycling in the world. A list headed by the Dutch team Team Visma | Lease a Bike, which will defend its number 1 after the victory of the last edition with Marianne Vos, together with renowned teams such as the French FDJ-Suez, currently the second team in the world ranking of the season, the historic Movistar Team, the only Spanish team in the category, and the North American Human Powered Health.
The Basque team Laboral Kutxa-Fundación Euskadi, the only UCI Women's ProTeam in Spain, has also confirmed its participation, as well as seven other international UCI Continental teams, many of them repeating after the previous edition: Italy's Aromitalia 3T Vaiano, Germany's Canyon/SRAM Zondacrypto Generation and LKT-Team, USA's Cynisca Cycling, Spain's Eneicat-CM Team, Australia's Liv-AlUla-Jayco Continental Team, and Norway's Team Coop-Repsol.
To complete this international peloton with teams from eight different countries, five national teams will also take part in this Volta a Catalunya, among them the Catalan Massi Baix Ter, which in its different structures has not failed in any edition of the women's races of the Volta, the new EC Mataró-Skoda Mogadealer and the Catalan national team. The Cantabria Deporte-Río Miera team, the Galician Team Farto-Kiroot, and the French-licensed Occitanie Cyclisme Féminin will also be there.
A top-level international bunch will be ready to once again experience the great spectacle of the 2nd women's edition of the Volta a Catalunya, which will once again feature a three-stage route between 6 and 8 June 2025. A varied route with stages between El Perelló and Reus, Bagà and Coll de Pal, and Castelldefels and Barcelona, of which all the details will be made public at the official presentation together with the 104th men's edition, will be held this Friday 14 March at 6pm, live on television on the Esport3 channel.
