The Clàssica Camp de Morvedre will once again be the first one-day race on the 2027 European calendar.

The race organised by the Club Ciclista Estivella, which keeps its UCI 1.1 category, will once again bring together leading professional teams on Friday 22 January on its demanding route around the Garbí, the symbol of the race and the setting for the first one-day race of the season.

The 11th edition - the third in its modern format - of the Clàssica Camp de Morvedre Internacional now has a date. Friday 22 January is the day when the peloton will once again contest the first classic of the European season, with the Garbí and the Sierra Calderona as exceptional witnesses to an event that keeps its 1.1 category.

Established at the start of the season after two successful editions - in 2025, the year of the return after the race’s first ‘golden age’ in the 1980s, and in 2026, a season in which six WorldTour teams chose to begin their European journey on the tough ramps of the Garbí - the event organised by the Club Ciclista Estivella will also serve as the first classic of the Spanish cycling calendar.

For this 2027 edition, Rafa Casero will act as race director and head of an organising committee that will be chaired by the original founder and soul of the race, José Ramón Mateu.

Rafa Casero: “It is an honour to take charge of the coordination of the Clàssica Camp de Morvedre after directing the junior races and the Elite and U23 races of CC Estivella in recent seasons. We know that more and more teams, media and fans eagerly look forward to this date marked on the calendar, and that all eyes will be on our work”.

The commitment of José Ramón, my own and that of the whole club is for the race to keep in 2027 the same organisational standards we had in the two previous editions; to keep earning the recognition of the cycling caravan and of the UCI; and for the race to keep growing.

The organisation of CC Estivella will report in full over the coming months on the route of the 2027 edition, always with the Garbí as the protagonist, as well as on the main news about the first UCI one-day race of next year in Europe.
