The 2025 UCI Women's World Tour was a competition with twenty-seven road cycling events throughout the 2025 women's cycling season. The competition began with the Women's Tour Down Under from 17 to 19 January, and finished with the Tour of Guangxi on 19 October. It was the tenth edition of the UCI Women's World Tour – launched by the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) in 2016 – but for the first time was not a ranking competition in its own right, with the rankings having been removed from the UCI's Road Race regulations.
At the end of the season, Dutch rider Demi Vollering of led the overall road world rankings ahead of Dutch rider Lorena Wiebes of (who won five World Tour events, the most of any rider) and Swiss rider Marlen Reusser of .
Events The initial race calendar for the 2025 season was announced in June 2024, with twenty-nine races initially scheduled. The calendar was similar to 2024, with the scheduled return of the Tour of Scandinavia following a hiatus in 2024 due to a lack of funding. Organisers of the Tour de France Femmes announced that the race would be extended to nine days in length, becoming the longest event on the calendar.
Following the announcement, the RideLondon Classique was cancelled by organisers, as it was not possible to run the race on the June date offered by the UCI. In July 2024, the Ronde van Drenthe was removed from the calendar as a result of economic reasons. In October 2024, the final calendar was announced with the addition of two new events – the previously rumoured women's edition of Milan–San Remo (last held in 2005), and a new one-day race in Denmark, the Copenhagen Sprint. Other rumoured events such as promotion of the Thüringen Ladies Tour from the UCI Women's ProSeries did not occur.
In January 2025, it was announced that the Tour of Scandinavia would not be revived due to lack of interest from sponsors and host broadcasters, reducing the calendar to twenty-seven races.
