The stars of the track line up for five days of pulsating action from the Velódromo Peñalolén in Santiago Chile where there are 22 gold medals up from grabs, 11 male and 11 female.
Headlining the women's endurance events is 2025's most successful female rider the Dutch superstar Lorena Wiebes. She has racked up 25 wins on the road and will be keen to add some rainbow bands to her amazing haul but will face tough competition in the shape of Katie Archibald and Ally Wollaston.
In the women’s sprint Britain’s Olympic champion Emma Finucane will be looking for her third world title in a row and in the men’s sprint can GB’s new ‘fastest man in the world’ Matthew Richardson unseat the six time champion Harrie Lavreysen?
In the men's endurance events the Team Ineos time trial star Josh Tarling is making his event debut but will not be in the team pursuit squad instead lining up in the points race and pairing Mark Stewart in the Madison.
And there’s guaranteed to be a new world record as for the first time the women’s individual pursuit will be held over four kilometres instead of three.
Read on to see full details of the five day schedule and how to watch UCI Track Cycling World Championships live streams online, from anywhere.

It's only natural that you might want to watch a 2025 UCI Track Cycling World Championships live stream from your home country, but what if you're not there when the race is on?
Look no further than a VPN, or virtual private network. A VPN makes it look as if you're surfing the web from your home country, rather than the one you're in. That means you can access the streaming services you already pay for, from anywhere on Earth. Or anywhere that has an internet connection, at least.
They're totally legal, inexpensive and easy to use. We've tested lots of the best VPN services and our favorite right now is NordVPN. It's fast, works on loads of devices and even offers a 30-day money-back guarantee.
Using a VPN is incredibly simple.
1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, NordVPN is our favorite.
2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance if you're in the U.S. and want to view a British service, you'd select 'United Kingdom' from the list.
3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to BBC iPlayer or another streaming service and watch the action.
