The roar of engines is returning to Europe — and with it, one of the most thrilling announcements in motorsport! The NASCAR Euro Series has officially revealed the first look at its 2026 calendar, promising a season packed with adrenaline, tradition, and a mysterious new twist. Fans are buzzing already — and for good reason. The season will launch once more in sunny Spain, close its curtains in historic Belgium, and debut at a brand-new, yet-to-be-revealed venue that’s sure to set the racing community alight. But here’s where it gets even more exciting: the third stop on the tour is shrouded in secrecy, and speculation is running wild about where the next NASCAR Euro showdown will unfold.
The excitement begins in Valencia, Spain, where the 2026 action officially roars to life at Circuit Ricardo Tormo. The Prologue Tests are set for April 16, warming up teams and fans for the NASCAR GP Spain on April 18–19. Year after year, this circuit has proven itself to be a cornerstone of the series — a place where horsepower meets heart. Picture it: perfect Mediterranean weather, one of Europe’s most passionate motorsport crowds, and pure racing intensity echoing through the grandstands.
And tradition remains strong at the other end of the season. Once again, the NASCAR Euro Finals will take place at the celebrated Circuit Zolder in Belgium. Mark your calendars for October 17–18, when the championship battles will reach their peak. Zolder — known for its fierce corners and history-making moments — will once more play host to dramatic finales, nail-biting action, and emotional celebrations as the 2026 champions are crowned before thousands of loyal fans.
But let’s not overlook the biggest mystery of the year. On May 23–24, the series will hit a completely new destination — one that organizers are keeping tightly under wraps for now. NASCAR Euro Series fans are being invited to take their best guesses on social media: will it be Scandinavia? Eastern Europe? Somewhere totally unexpected? The suspense is part of the fun, and the organizers promise that the reveal will be “one of the most exciting new chapters in the championship’s history.”
NASCAR Euro Series President and CEO Jerome Galpin spoke with clear enthusiasm about what’s ahead: “Spain and Belgium are two cornerstones of our championship — Valencia has always given us the perfect start, and Zolder is where legends are crowned. We’re thrilled to be returning to both, and even more excited to tease fans with an incredible new destination that we can’t wait to unveil. The 2026 season will elevate the Pure Racing experience to an entirely new level.”
