The 2021 Tour of Norway was a men's road cycling stage race which took place from 19 to 22 August 2021. It was the 10th edition of the Tour of Norway, which was rated as a 2.Pro event on the 2021 UCI Europe Tour and the 2021 UCI ProSeries calendars.[3] This edition was the race's first in the UCI ProSeries; the 2020 edition was expected to feature in the inaugural UCI ProSeries but was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[4]

The race was originally six stages long and scheduled to be held from 19 to 24 May, but it was later reduced to four stages and scheduled to begin instead on 21 May.[1][2] However, on 16 April, the shortened race was postponed to 19–22 August due to a spike in COVID-19 cases.[5]

Teams[edit]

Seven of the 19 UCI WorldTeams, two UCI ProTeams, and ten UCI Continental teams made up the nineteen teams that participated in the race.[6][7] Sport Vlaanderen–Baloise, with five riders, was the only team to not enter a full squad of six riders. 113 riders started the race, of which 104 finished.[8][9]
