The fourth edition of Liège–Bastogne–Liège Femmes, a road cycling one-day race in Belgium, was held on 4 October 2020. It was originally planned to be held on 26 April, but was cancelled and rescheduled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It was the seventh event of the shortened 2020 UCI Women's World Tour. The race started in Bastogne and finished in Liège; the route included five categorised climbs over a total distance of 135 km (84 mi).[1]
