The Festival Luxembourgeois du cyclisme féminin Elsy Jacobs formerly known as the Grand Prix Elsy Jacobs is an international women's road bicycle race held in Garnich, Luxembourg.
The race was first held in 2008 as a one-day race. Between 2009 and 2011 it was rated as an UCI 1.1 category race. Since 2012, it has been run as a stage race. Between 2021 and 2023, the race was part of the UCI Women's ProSeries, the second tier women's elite road cycling tour.
The race is named after Luxembourgish cyclist Elsy Jacobs, the first winner of the UCI Road World Championships – Women's road race, which took place at Reims, France in 1958. Jacobs was also the hour record holder from 1958 to 1972, as well as fifteen-time Luxembourgish national champion.[1]
