Sydney Motorsport Park Ride Days Set for Biggest Year Yet in 2026 | Sydney Motorsport Park is gearing up for its biggest motorcycle track-day program yet, following a hugely successful 2025 season that welcomed thousands of riders from Australia and around the world.

SMSP (Sydney Motorsports Park) South Circuit was a good layout for the YZF-R6. We lapped in the 1:02 bracket, on par with the inline-four YZF-R6 at a quick ride day pace. Which bike would be capable of the fastest time in race trim is hard to say, but probably the R9 thanks to the torque of the CP3 inline triple engine, and in an easier way, too.

Across 2025, a total of 30 Ride Days and six Ride Nights were run at Sydney Motorsport Park, attracting 4,518 riders. Participants came from all walks of life, nationalities and backgrounds, united by a shared passion for riding one of Australia’s premier motorsport venues.

Looking ahead to 2026, the calendar expands even further. A total of 31 regular Ride Days and 11 Ride Nights are planned, alongside a limited number of weekend and public holiday events, plus several special dates yet to be announced.

The mi-bike Australian Superbike Championship presented by Motul (ASBK) has finally returned to Sydney Motorsport Park (SMSP) for Rd2 of the 2023 season, this time under lights!

One of the standout features continuing into next year is the opportunity for riders to hire premium superbikes on every Ride Day, including the Ducati Panigale V4S and BMW S 1000 RR. For those wanting the ultimate on-track experience, the Full Factory Experience will also return, offering riders access to up-spec Ducati Panigale V4S and BMW S 1000 RR M Sport machines, complete with slick tyres, tyre warmers and personalised setup.

New for 2026 are brand-specific days, including BMW Motorrad Days and Ducati Experience events, where only motorcycles from that marque take to the circuit. Exclusive Full Factory Experience Days will also be introduced, limited to just 10 riders on track, with seven dedicated sessions per day.

Further details on these new experiences will be revealed in the new year, as Sydney Motorsport Park continues to elevate its motorcycle ride-day offering for 2026.
