The Cyclo-cross Superprestige is a season-long cyclo-cross competition, consisting of around 8 rounds throughout the season in Belgium and the Netherlands. It is one of three major season-long competitions, alongside the UCI Cyclo-cross World Cup and the X²O Badkamers Trophy (formerly known as the DVV Trophy, BPost Bank Trophy, and Gazet van Antwerpen trophy). A season consist of several races in the categories Elite Men and Elite Women. Riders can win points in each race and at the end pf the season the rider with the highest point tally in each category is considered the winner. Until 2020 Superprestige had separate classification for Under 23 Men, Under-23 Women and Junior Men.


The first Superprestige took place in 1982–1983 and was won by Hennie Stamsnijder of the Netherlands. The Superprestige is organised for trade teams, not national teams. Since 2018 Superprestige has been organised by Flanders Classics.


Only two riders have won all eight Superprestige races in one season, Sven Nys in 2006–07 and Mathieu van der Poel in 2018–19. The 2022–2023 season only contains seven races due to the race in Gieten being removed from the calendar.
