SUMMARY:39th Annual Boise Twilight Criterium
DESCRIPTION:Boise’s biggest block party on bikes is back. The Bailey Glasser Boise Twilight Criterium returns to downtown Boise on Saturday, July 11, 2026, marking the 39th running of one of the most iconic criterium races in the nation. For nearly four decades, Twilight has delivered heart‑pounding racing, electric crowds, and an unmistakable Boise vibe—and 2026 promises to be faster, louder, and more unforgettable than ever.\nA cornerstone of the American Criterium Cup (ACC)—the premier six‑race professional criterium series in the United States—Boise proudly serves as the fourth stop on the national tour. The country’s top professional men and women will descend on Idaho’s capital to battle for critical ACC points and a share of a $500,000 total prize purse, split evenly between the women’s and men’s fields.\nA Full Day of Family Fun, Downtown Energy, and Elite Racing\nFrom morning to midnight, July 11 is packed with can’t‑miss experiences for all ages:\n Kids Ride with Kristin Armstrong, Presented by Lactalis USA – 11:00 AM\nPresented by Lactalis USA, the Kids Ride welcomes children ages 3–10 of all ability levels for a once‑in‑a‑lifetime spin on the same closed course raced by Olympians and pros. Registration is open now!\n“The Boise Twilight Criterium embodies what Lactalis strives to support with our great tasting dairy products — active lifestyles, community connection and bringing people together. Returning as the presenting sponsor is a reflection of our deeper commitment to the Treasure Valley, a community that is home to our largest plant in the United States. We look forward to celebrating another year with the riders, families and fans who make this event special,” said Simon Perrier, Nampa site director, Lactalis USA\nTwilight EXPO Opens – 1:00 PM\nDowntown Boise transforms into a festival zone with an expanded Twilight EXPO, featuring local and regional vendors, food trucks, interactive brand activations, a lively beverage garden, and prime viewing of the course. Whether you’re a cycling superfan or just soaking in summer downtown, the EXPO is the place to be.\nGirls on the Run 1‑Mile Lap Run – 5:15 PM\nRun the course. Feel the energy. Support a cause. The Girls on the Run 1‑Mile Lap Run gives runners 16 and older a rare chance to test their speed on the Twilight circuit while benefiting a powerful local nonprofit. \nPro Racing Action Heats Up! – Opening Ceremony at 5:45 PM\nAs the sun sets and the lights snap on, the stars of American criterium racing take over downtown. Expect blistering speeds, razor‑sharp cornering, fearless breakaways, and dramatic finishes as elite women’s and men’s teams fight for victory on Boise’s tight, technical circuit. This is criterium racing at its absolute best.\nDon’t Miss Boise’s Signature Summer Event\nGenerations of fans, racers, volunteers, and sponsors have helped shape the Boise Twilight Criterium into what it is today—a world‑class sporting event with a true hometown heart. The 39th Annual Boise Twilight Criterium continues that legacy on July 11, 2026, bringing together sport, celebration, and community like only Twilight can.
