Barcelona City Council has commissioned the band Doctor Prats to write and perform the official anthem for the 2026 Tour de France Grand Départ, which will start in the city.

The song is scheduled to debut on March 26 during the Festa dels 100 dies (100 Days Party) at Passeig Lluís Companys. This event marks the final countdown to the start of the world's most prestigious cycling race in Barcelona.

"We wanted this milestone to have a soundtrack to match, a song capable of connecting with the energy and collective excitement already felt in the city."

David Escudé · City Councilor for Sports
The choice of Doctor Prats reflects the festive and open spirit of the city. In addition to the musical announcement, organizers previously confirmed that the official team presentation for the 2026 Tour will take place at the Sagrada Família.
