The NTT IndyCar Series revealed the schedule for its first eight races of the 2027 season on Aug. 12.
The series’ release deemed it “phase one” of the schedule release.
There are no changes to the beginning of the schedule from 2026. 2027 will be the second consecutive year and the fifth time overall that a season begins on three consecutive weekends.
“It has been another remarkable year of growth through our powerful partnership with FOX Sports, and we look forward to focusing on even greater opportunities through the 2027 NTT INDYCAR SERIES schedule,” Penske Entertainment Corp. President and CEO Mark Miles said in a release. “We are pleased to confirm phase one of next year’s championship alongside another accelerated start with races in St. Petersburg [Fla.], Phoenix and Arlington.
“2026 has been proof of concept that our sport is fueled by an expanding presence across marquee events and destinations, and we look forward to carrying that momentum into 2027.”
All races will be broadcast on FOX.
“The start to this year’s 2026 season was action-packed, and it’s gratifying to know the stage is set for a return to that frantic pace in 2027,” INDYCAR President J. Douglas Boles added. “St. Pete has become an ideal host to begin our season, and the reaction to the series’ return to historic Phoenix Raceway made our partnership with NASCAR and FOX all the more special. To finish that stretch with a marquee event on the Streets of Arlington will be a fitting way to lead into another heated season-long battle for the NTT IndyCar Series championship.”
INDYCAR has not indicated when it plans to release the remainder of the 2027 schedule.
