Details

Think NASCAR on bikes. In 2026, the Rio Nuevo Tucson Criterium becomes an all-day street racing festival with nonstop laps on a tight 0.73-mile (1.2 km) course beside Tucson’s historic Barrio Viejo. Expect sharp corners, a wild 180-degree turn, and riders flying past every minute.

Designed for spectators, this course puts you right in the action and just steps from cafés, breweries, restaurants, and boutique hotels—so you can watch the racing, grab a drink, and make a day of it with friends or family.
