The Grand Prix Cycliste de Saguenay is a bicycle stage race held annually in Saguenay, Quebec. It is part of the UCI America Tour, as a 2.2 category event. It was formed in 2014 after the previous Coupe des nations Ville Saguenay – a race reserved to riders between 19 and 22 of age and rated 2.Ncup by the UCI between 2008 and 2013[1] – was removed from the UCI Nations Cup calendar.[2][3]

The Grand Prix Cycliste de Saguenay is held in the same area, but is now open to trade teams.
