The UCI Road World Championships recently concluded in Quebec, Canada, with American cyclist Brandon McNulty winning the men's elite road race. The 273.7 km course began at Quartier Dix30 in Brossard and traversed several municipalities in Montérégie, including Saint-Jean-Baptiste and Mont-Saint-Hilaire, before finishing with 12 laps of the Mont-Royal circuit in Montreal.

Tourisme Montérégie projects the event generated between $6 million and $8 million in total economic and media value. Direct impacts from accommodation, venue rentals, and food services are estimated to exceed $1.3 million, alongside approximately $1.9 million in media value.
