Bikes, Trucks to join Supercars in Darwin

The Darwin Triple Crown will take place from 18-20 June next year, featuring an action-packed support category line-up.

Billed as the biggest Darwin Supercars event yet, the weekend will include the Australian Superbikes and Stadium Super Tracks.

The jam-packed event will kick-off with a drag-racing spectacular, dubbed Nitro Up North, on Friday, 18 June.

The Night Transporter Convoy, a favourite with Top Enders, will return in 2021, as will the Saturday night concert after being postponed this year due to COVID-19.

Hospitality tickets will go on sale from 10am today, and general admission tickets from Friday, 27 November.

Fans can secure general admission tickets at bargain prices with a three-day Hot Pass available for $79 as part of Black Friday sales this week.

Supercars CEO, Sean Seamer said: "Darwin is such a special event for the Championship and a real favourite of the teams, drivers and fans.

“This fantastic announcement that Supercars will be joined by Superbikes and Stadium Super Trucks will ensure the event will thrill fans of all ages.

“We look forward to working with organisers to put on an amazing show for fans of both two and four-wheels.

"I want to thank Chief Minister Michael Gunner, and the Board and team at Northern Territory Major Events Company for their vision and passion in making this event an exciting addition to the 2021 calendar.”

Minister for Tourism and Hospitality, Natasha Fyles, said: “The program for next year’s Darwin Triple Crown is incredible and looks set to be one of the best in the country.

“We’re the comeback capital in more ways than one, unveiling bigger and better events we know have a huge impact on our economy, all while adjusting to the new-normal post COVID-19.

“We are delivering three days of action on and off the track, promising a weekend of world-class entertainment in the peak of the Top End Dry Season.

“The benefits of events such as the Darwin Triple Crown spread throughout the hospitality and tourism industries and beyond.

“We look forward to welcoming Supercars fans and their families to the NT, and to seeing the Territory beamed across the nation.”
