The Tour of Scandinavia was a women's cycle stage race, that had stages in Norway, Sweden and Denmark, held in August. It was the successor of Ladies Tour of Norway[1] and its first edition was held in 2022. Its a UCI Women's World Tour event. The race was to be called Battle of the North but due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine the organisers renamed it Tour of Scandinavia.[2]
In May 2024, the 2024 edition of the race was cancelled due to a lack of funding.[3] Originally planned to return in 2025,[4] the organisers announced in January 2025 that the race would not be revived, due to lack of interest from sponsors and host broadcasters.[5]
