Flèche Wallonne 2026 – Where to Watch, TV Channels & Live Streams

The 90th edition of La Flèche Wallonne takes centre stage on Wednesday, April 22, 2026, as the world’s best climbers tackle the brutal Mur de Huy in Wallonia, Belgium. This iconic Ardennes Classic covers 208.8 kilometres from Herstal to the summit finish, where gradients hit nearly 20%. With defending champion Tadej Pogačar skipping the race to focus on Liège-Bastogne-Liège, and Remco Evenepoel opting for recovery, the field is wide open. French sensation Paul Seixas heads the favourites after his dominant Tour of the Basque Country victory. Kevin Vauquelin and Lenny Martinez are among those eyeing a breakthrough win on one of cycling’s most punishing finishes.
