2026 UCI Mountain Bike World Championships
A land where champions become legends
The great spectacle of the UCI Mountain Bike World Championships returns to the iconic setting of Daolasa, Val di Sole - Trentino, for the first time since 2021.
From August 26th to 30th, 2026, prepare for a week of high-octane excitement and adrenaline, featuring world-class performances and feats that will go down in history. The world’s top mountain bike athletes will compete across all disciplines, from the Team Relay and Short Track to Cross Country, Four-cross, and Downhill.
Surrounding the champions are the majestic Alpine peaks—a natural stage of meadows, forests, and mountain pastures waiting to be explored by bike. It is no coincidence that Val di Sole was the first Italy’s UCI Bike Region.
The action in Daolasa di Commezzadura kicks off on Wednesday, August 26th, with the E-MTB and Team Relay events. On Thursday, the 27th, the spotlight turns to the Short Track, while Friday 28 is dedicated to Downhill qualifying and the evening 4X Pro Tour competitions. The excitement continues with the Downhill finals on Saturday, August 29th, and concludes with the crowning of the Cross Country champions in the grand finale on Sunday, August 30th.
