The 2021 UCI ProSeries is the second season of the UCI ProSeries, the second tier road cycling tour, below the UCI World Tour, but above the various regional UCI Continental Circuits.
The 2021 season initially consisted of 55 events of which 28 were one-day races (1.Pro) and 27 were stage races (2.Pro). There were 47 events in Europe, 5 in Asia, 2 in the United States and 1 in Argentina.{{Cite web|url=https://www.uci.org/inside-uci/press-releases/the-uci-reveals-the-2021-calendars-for-the-uci-worldtour-and-uci-women%E2%80%99s-worldtour|title=The UCI reveals the 2021 calendars for the UCI WorldTour and UCI Women’s WorldTour|accessdate=25 October 2020|work=UCI}}
