Giro di Sicilia (English: Tour of Sicily) is a men's multi-stage bicycle race held on Sicily, Italy. The race was first held in 1907 and was won by Carlo Galetti. The race disappeared from the calendar after the 1977 edition won by Giuseppe Saronni, until it was revived by RCS Sports in 2019. The first edition of the revived race was won by American rider Brandon McNulty. It is part of the UCI Europe Tour, classified as a 2.1 event.
The 2024 edition was cancelled as RCS Sport, in collaboration with the Abruzzo Region, will organize the Giro d'Abruzzo instead.
