Your Experience

Destination Sport Experiences are proud to be appointed as official tour operator of the 2022 Paris Roubaix Challenge. We also offer hospitality and VIP experiences for both the Paris Roubaix Femmes and Mens Pro Races. 

The 2021 Paris – Roubaix was won by Italian Sonny Colbrelli. Riding his first Paris-Roubaix at the age of 31, European champion Sonny Colbrelli outsprinted his two breakaway companions, Florian Vermeersch and Mathieu van der Poel. The race was marked by wet and muddy conditions. Another Italian, Gianni Moscon, looked like having his grip on the race but it all slipped away from him as he was victim of a puncture and a crash in the final stages of the race. It was also the first edition for the women’s race, which was won by Lizzi Deignan who achieved an impressive solo victory.

On Sunday 17th April, 2022 you will see the elite men take on the Hell of the North.

Start to Finish Experience with hospitality

After breakfast we offer our start to finish experience. We’ll take a packed lunch and plenty of water along as it can be difficult to buy food and drink en-route. Our minibus will collect us from our hotel in Roubaix at about 06.00 this morning. The journey is about 2 ½ hours and we aim to get to Compiegne for about 08.30. The race usually starts at 11.00 with preparations from about 09.30.

08.30 : Compiegne VIP Start (This experience can also be booked as a stand alone ticket)

For the 45th time since 1977, Compiègne is host to the start of Paris-Roubaix. Opposite the Palace, on the Place du Général de Gaulle, 25 teams will line up for the start of the «Queen of the Classics». 175 riders will be preparing to reach the Roubaix velodrome but just a few will be nourishing hopes of victory.

From the VIP area, you will be able to get close to the riders passing through the VIP tent after leaving the sign-in podium. You will be able to visit the team paddock, admire the special machines selected for this race and rub shoulders with the riders. You will feel the excitement growing as the start time approaches. You will have access to the official guest area with a direct view of the sign-in podium and its events and breakfast, hot and cold drinks are served all morning.

11.30 : Depart Compiegne

We will gather and depart Compiegne for about 11.30. We will drive straight back to the velodrome in Roubaix where we will take our place in the hospitality venue. Time and traffic permitting we will stop at a viewing point en-route.

14.30 : Velodrome

A victory in Roubaix guarantees the rider his place in the rich history of cycling and his nameplate in one of the iconic shower stalls. On finally reaching Roubaix, the riders head to the town’s velodrome for one and a half laps in front of a crowd of enthusiasts. Whether the arena is the scene of a bunch sprint or a lap of honour by a solitary leader, it’s always an exceptional spectacle marking the fitting end to a perfect race.
