British Cycling members will have the opportunity to secure tickets early for the event, which is due to take place from November 1 until 3, which is expected to see very high demand.

"We're very happy that the UCI have again awarded our stakeholder group a round of the Track Cycling World Cup recognising the ongoing support of our venues, UK Sport and British Cycling for the UCI's series and the sport of cycling as a whole." said British Cycling sport and membership director Jonny Clay.

"Returning to Manchester marks the start of a journey to Rio that we hope will culminate in welcoming the UCI Track Cycling World Championships to London in 2016 and we await positive news on the outcome of that bid."

Head of major events at UK Sport Esther Nicholls spoke of her delight at securing the event, and future plans for the organisation to secure more high-profile events for the country.

"We're so pleased that the UCI Track Cycling World Cup will once again be returning to the Manchester Velodrome, which has played host to so many fantastic track cycling events since 2002," she said.

"Through our £27 million ($43 million/€32 million) Gold Event Series we have been working hard to build an incredible programme of major international sporting events for the UK to host after London 2012 and hope this is the first of a number of major international cycling events to be staged in the UK in partnership with the UCI.

Manchester last held a UCI Track Cycling World Cup event in 2011

"In partnership with British Cycling and London we look forward to the decision in relation to our bid to stage the 2016 Track Cycling World Championships in the London Velodrome, the legacy venue from London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games. "

Manchester City Council leader Sir Richard Leese spoke of how the event would contribute to a fantastic year of sport for a city that has become one of Britain's most-popular sporting destinations.

"Having recently hosted the UCI BMX Supercross World Cup, the National Cycle Centre will once again treat cycling fans to an international competition of the highest calibre." he said.

"The event is a very welcome addition to Manchester's packed 2013 sporting programme, that also features NBA Europe Live, Bupa Great Manchester Run, Superleague Magic Weekend, the Men's World Squash Championship and Rugby League World Cup Final - and once again shows that Manchester truly is a world class city of sport."

Further details of the event will be announced in the coming weeks.
