FAQs

How long before the start can I arrive?

The start village opens 3 hours prior to the stage start.

What time do the riders arrive for sign-on?

As of 90 minutes before the start.

Can I ask for autographs?

Yes, but stand behind the barriers. There is no guarantee you will get one.

Where can I park?

Part of the city’s parking lots may be reserved for the Organiser, to serve their needs on race day. You may want to reach the start/finish areas on foot, or see the information provided by the host city to find the parking areas for the public.

Can I access the hospitality areas?

No, access to these areas is by invitation only.

How can I receive a pass to access the hospitality areas?

Passes are issued only upon invitation from a Sponsor or from other subjects in the Giro’s suite.

Are there any toilet facilities?

No. Chemical toilets are available in restricted-access areas only.

Can I take my dog with me?

Yes, but they have to be on a leash and muzzle. However, it is not advisable as the places are usually crowded.

Where can I see the riders?

By the teams’ buses (which are parked in a dedicated area near the start), or by the signature podium during teams’ presentation and sign-on.

Can I go to the finish line?

Yes, the finish area is accessible to the public on foot. However, the home straight is entirely lined with barriers, and the organizer restricts access to their dedicated areas by specific passes. A giant viewing screen broadcasting the race will be set up in the final kilometre.

Where can I see the advertising caravan?

Near the signature podium at the start meeting point, or on the home straight, still behind the barriers. You can also see the caravan’s program to find out where they will stop along the route to stage their parade, as they do at the start and at the finish.

Can I watch the awards ceremony?

Yes, from behind the barriers.

Is there food and drink available?

Yes, inside the hospitality areas reserved to pass holders. Snacks can be found at the open village at the start and at the finish.

Approximately two hours in advance.

How long after the finish will the roads be cleared?
