X2O Badkamers Trofee - Hofstade Plage cross

The Plage Cross is held at the recreation domain in Hofstade, near Mechelen, where the lake beach gives the race its name and much of its sandy course. It is a round of the X2O Badkamers Trofee and falls on Tuesday 22 December 2026, in the busiest week of the cyclo-cross season, two days after the World Cup in Koksijde. The race returned to the calendar in December 2025 after a break. The Azencross in Loenhout follows the next day.
