The 2017 Volta a la Comunitat Valenciana (English: 2017 Tour of the Valencian Community) was a road cycling stage race that took place in the Valencian Community between 1 and 5 February 2017. The race was rated as a 2.1 event as part of the 2017 UCI Europe Tour, and was the 68th edition of the Volta a la Comunitat Valenciana.
The race was won by Colombian rider Nairo Quintana for the Movistar Team, who took the race lead on the penultimate day after winning the queen stage of the race atop the Alto Mas de la Costa. The podium was completed by a pair of BMC Racing Team riders, having assumed their positions after a first-day team time trial victory; Ben Hermans finished 13 seconds behind Quintana in second, with Manuel Senni finishing third – winning the white jersey for the young rider classification as a result – a further 19 seconds in arrears. In the race's other classifications, Cyril Gautier (AG2R La Mondiale) won both the sprints and mountains classifications, Philippe Gilbert won the combination classification – for the best positioning over all classifications – for Quick-Step Floors, while the Movistar Team won the teams classification.
25 teams were invited to take part in the race. These included twelve UCI WorldTeams, seven UCI Professional Continental teams, five UCI Continental teams and a Spanish national team.
