The UCI has published its calendar for the 2027 WorldTour. There are a total of 169 race days at 36 events. There was some confusion about the date for Eschborn-Frankfurt. Contrary to the information provided by the UCI, the race will remain on 1 May. The Tour of Spain will take place a little later than planned in 2027.

The UCI has published the 2027 WorldTour calendar and the biggest surprise was the new date for Eschborn-Frankfurt. In the schedule, the race was announced for Sunday 2 May - but that was a mistake. When asked by TOUR, the ASO confirmed that Eschborn-Frankfurt will take place as usual on 1 May. The predecessor of Eschborn-Frankfurt was the Rund um den Henninger Turm race, which was founded in 1962. It has always been held on 1 May since 1968. Next year, the men's UCI WorldTour comprises 36 events in 13 countries on four continents with a total of 169 race days. The race series begins on 19 January in Australia with the Santos Tour Down Under and ends on 17 October with the Tour of Guangxi in China.

In addition to Eschborn-Frankfurt, the ADAC Cyclassics are still on the calendar as a date in Germany. The Vuelta Ciclista a España will take place entirely in September next year and therefore a little later than usual.
