Petronas Le Tour de Langkawi 2026
Event Overview
The Petronas Le Tour de Langkawi 2026 (LTdL 2026) will celebrate the 30th edition of Malaysia’s premier professional stage race from September 27 to October 4, 2026. The eight-stage UCI ProSeries event will cover approximately 1,258.5 km across eight states in Peninsular Malaysia.
The 2026 route is designed to place greater emphasis on climbing, with three summit finishes at Gunung Jerai, Cameron Highlands, and Genting Highlands. The opening stage starts in Bukit Jelutong, Shah Alam, before heading to Kampar over 193 km, while the final stage runs from Muar to Putrajaya.
The race brings together international WorldTeams, ProTeams, Continental teams, and the Malaysian national team. Twenty teams have confirmed participation for the 2026 edition, including two WorldTeams and eight ProTeams.
