Supercars reveals expanded 2025 calendar

The 2025 Repco Supercars Championship calendar has been announced, and it has been confirmed that racing will return to Queensland Raceway near Ipswich for the first time since 2019 as part of a 13-round championship.

The 2025 calendar will run from February 21 to November 30, beginning with a twilight racing event at Sydney Motorsport Park.

Following the season opener, Supercars will return to the Australian Grand Prix in March for Round 2, followed by the trip to Taupō in New Zealand, which in 2024 was sold out due to popular demand with a similar crowd size expected again in 2025.

The Tasmanian event at Symmons Plains will shift to a May date in 2025, before Supercars' annual trip across the Nullarbor to Perth’s permanent circuit at Wanneroo.

That could be an emotional event for fans at the historic circuit, with the WA Government declaring support for a Perth CBD street circuit for Supercars to race on from 2026.

Sixth on the calendar will be the annual trip to Darwin for Indigenous Round, where southern state fans can escape the winter blues from June 20-22. That will be followed by the other trip to the tropic north to Townsville during the QLD school holidays from July 11-13.

The highly anticipated return to Ipswich drops in to an August date at the new-look Queensland Raceway, bringing back one of south-east Queensland’s favourite motorsport events.

Following Ipswich will be the first ever endurance event at The Bend in South Australia from 12-14 September.

The Repco Bathurst 1000 remains the centrepiece of the 2025 season. The Great Race, which will take place from October 9-12.

Following the Repco Bathurst 1000, racing shifts to the Gold Coast streets of Surfers Paradise in late October.

Sandown’s historic circuit in Melbourne will host the penultimate round of the Championship in mid-November, as it did in 2019.

The grand finale will once again be on the famous streets of Adelaide from 27-30 November where the 2025 champion will be crowned.

Supercars CEO Shane Howard said: “The expansion to 13 events not only brings back Ipswich but solidifies Supercars’ national and international footprint.

"We’re thrilled about the strategic additions and shifts in the calendar, including moving Sandown to a November date and debuting an endurance round at The Bend.

"We’re incredibly excited to announce the return of the Ipswich event in 2025. After a few years off the calendar, we know fans in south-east Queensland have been eager for its return.

"Queensland Raceway has had significant upgrades, and the August event will be one to mark in the calendar to attend at a truly revitalised venue.”

RACE Chairman Barclay Nettlefold said: “Expanding the 2025 Repco Supercars Championship was a key priority for us, and it’s something fans have been asking for over the last few years.

"Adding the 13th event is a reflection of our ongoing commitment to growing the sport and providing more opportunities for fans to engage with Supercars in different locations.

"With plans for a Perth street circuit in place and Toyota confirmed to bring the GR Supra onto the grid in 2026 the future is an exciting one that we are proud to be delivering for fans.”

Wayne Bryant, CEO, Automotive Division, GPC Asia Pacific said: "Like all fans, the crew at Repco are thrilled to see an expanded 2025 Repco Supercars Championship calendar.

"We are also pumped to see Supercars return to a heartland destination like Queensland Raceway. The calendar continues to be stacked with popular circuits, iconic destinations, and of course, the holy grail, the Repco Bathurst 1000 in October."

The 2025 race formats, television schedule and support category details will be announced in coming days leading into this year’s Great Race, the Repco Bathurst 1000 at Mount Panorama from 10-13 October.
