In 2027, NASCAR champions will once again be crowned at Homestead-Miami Speedway. On Tuesday, the sanctioning body officially revealed that the 1.5-mile speedway near Miami will serve as the host of Championship Weekend for the second consecutive season.

“The South Florida community is thrilled to once again be the home for NASCAR Championship Weekend in 2026 and 2027, as next year will be the Speedway’s 20th time doing so,” said Guillermo Santa Cruz, Homestead-Miami Speedway President. “The excitement, drama, and energy surrounding the championship brings tremendous visibility, economic impact, and engagement to our community, while showcasing what Homestead-Miami Speedway can offer as a premier destination for major events.”

The final race weekend of the 2027 season will be a triple-header weekend featuring the NASCAR Cup Series, NASCAR O'Reilly Auto Parts Series, and NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, and the weekend will span November 12-14.

According to a press release from NASCAR, the track will undergo a $20 million renovation following the November 2026 championship race weekend.
