The 2023 Tour de France Femmes (officially 2023 Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift) was the second edition of the Tour de France Femmes. The race took place from 23 to 30 July 2023, and was the 21st race in the 2023 UCI Women's World Tour calendar. The race was organised by the Amaury Sport Organisation (ASO), which also organises the men's Tour de France.
The race was won by Demi Vollering of SD Worx, beating her rival Annemiek van Vleuten (Movistar Team) with a dominant stage win on the Col du Tourmalet. Second place went to Vollering's teammate Lotte Kopecky, who wore the yellow jersey for six stages after winning the first stage. The podium was rounded out by Katarzyna Niewiadoma of Canyon–SRAM for the second year in a row.
In the race's other classifications, Kopecky won the points classification. Apart from finishing third in the general classification (GC), Niewiadoma also took the polka-dot jersey as winner of the Queen of the Mountains (QoM) classification. Cédrine Kerbaol of Ceratizit–WNT Pro Cycling took the white jersey as the winner of the young riders classification, which was awarded to the best-placed GC rider under the age of 23. Yara Kastelijn took the super-combativity award to add to her win on stage 4. SD Worx won the team classification as the team with the lowest aggregate time among their three best-placed riders.
Overall, the race was highly praised by the public, media, teams and riders – with large crowds and high TV viewership. Race director Marion Rousse stated that the 2023 edition "was the year of confirmation: we had to prove that the first edition was not just curiosity".
