All 21 stages of the 2025 Tour de France air live on Peacock. The 112th Tour runs from July 5-27, starting in Lille and ending on Paris’ Champs-Elysees. Peacock coverage starts at 6 or 6:30 a.m. ET on most days with pre-race shows. NBC joins for live coverage of stages 1 and 20, plus highlights of stages 2, 15, 20 and 21.
