OTTAWA, ON (November 12, 2026) – Cycling Canada is pleased to share that the Pan American Cycling Confederation has selected Lévis, Québec, as the host city for the 2027 and 2028 Pan American Cyclo-cross Championships.
“We are thrilled to announce Lévis and organizing committee CX418 as host of the 2027 & 2028 editions of the Pan American Cyclo-cross Championships,” said Josh Peacock, President of the Pan American Cyclo-cross Commission. “CX418 has demonstrated its ability to deliver exceptional cyclo-cross events, including back-to-back Canadian Championships in 2024 and 2025, and we are confident the team is ready to take the next step onto the continental stage. With a proven organization and Québec’s passionate cycling community behind it, Lévis has all the ingredients to deliver a memorable championship experience for athletes and spectators from across the Americas.”
“Passion has always been the driving force behind our organization” said Eric Blais, Event and CX418 Director. “Since 2016, our dedicated team has built CX418 step by step, growing from a small grassroots cyclocross series into an organization recognized for hosting some of Canada’s best cyclocross events three years in a row. We are incredibly proud of what we have accomplished together, and being selected to host the Pan American Championships is another exciting milestone in our journey. We are ready to take on this new challenge, raise the bar once again, and deliver an event that surpasses anything we have done before. Our goal is to create an event that athletes are excited to race and spectators are equally excited to experience, with an unforgettable atmosphere that celebrates everything that makes cyclocross so special.”
The Pan American Championships will take place at the Abbey sector of the Etchemins River Park, in the heart of Lévis on the south shore of Québec City. The venue has established itself as one of Canada’s prominent cyclo-cross destinations, hosting the Canadian Cyclo-cross Championships in both 2024 and 2025, as well as UCI C2 racing in 2023, 2024 and 2026, and a UCI C1 event in 2025. UCI C1 racing will continue into 2027 & 2028, strengthening the Pan American Championship weekend.
The 2027 and 2028 editions will continue a period of growth for the Pan American Cyclo-cross Championships, following strong hostings of the 2025 and 2026 editions in Washington, D.C., and Missoula, Montana, in 2023 and 2024.
