April 4, 2024 - The European Cyclists’ Federation and the City of Viborg invite cycling and tourism professionals to submit an abstract for the EuroVelo & Cycling Tourism Conference 2024 programme.

Taking place from 23 to 25 September in Viborg, Denmark, the EuroVelo & Cycling Tourism Conference is the largest yearly professional event gathering all actors involved in the cycling and tourism sectors. It stimulates knowledge and best practice transfer on EuroVelo, cycling tourism and cycle route networks at an international level.

This year’s theme is Legacy and Localhood. Legacy refers to the impact that large events – such as the Tour de France Grand Départ – and the valorisation of local heritage for tourism purposes can have on the economy, the community, and the use of the bicycle overall. Localhood, in turn, will explore how to involve and engage communities for more sustainable urban and rural development around cycle routes.

Three subthemes – Cycling towards local development, Engaging the locals, and Widening the horizon of cycling tourism – and a number of priority topics will help shape an enticing programme. Read more about the theme and subthemes in the dedicated section

The Call for Abstracts is open until Tuesday, 9 April 2024, 23:59 CEST
