The Philadelphia Cycling Classic is an elite women's professional one-day road bicycle race held in the United States and is currently rated by the UCI as a 1.1 race.[2] The race was established in 2013 as a successor to the Liberty Classic, which was last held in 2012.[1]

In 2015, the event became part of the UCI Women's Road World Cup, and was included in the inaugural UCI Women's WorldTour the year after, but was discontinued after its fourth running.
