Which day is the race?

Sunday 14 November 2027. Qualifying and the sprint are on Saturday 13 November.

Are these dates final?

They come from the calendar MotoGP and the FIM published on 25 September 2026. That calendar is issued as provisional and confirmed after track homologation, so the slot can move by a week in theory. It has not moved so far.

Can I stay within walking distance?

Yes — the East End is a 12-minute walk from the park, which no other MotoGP round in Australia has ever offered. That is also the first thing that will sell out.

Is Phillip Island still hosting?

No. The Australian round moves to the Adelaide street circuit from 2027.

How many nights do I need?

Three: Friday to Monday. The Sunday race finishes late in the afternoon and the city empties slowly, so flying out the same evening is a gamble.

Our verdict

Go: Saturday and Sunday — qualifying and the sprint on one ticket, the race on the other
Stay: East End
Book by: March 2027, before the first grandstand map goes on sale

The first MotoGP in Adelaide and the first on this street circuit. Nobody has hotel data for it yet, which cuts both ways: the city is not primed to triple its prices, and the walkable East End is small enough to go in a weekend once ticket sales start.

Illustration: a temporary street circuit through a city park at dusk, armco barriers and scaffold grandstands, eucalyptus trees behind, long shadows across fresh asphalt — Illustration — a generated image of the kind of scene, not a photograph of the venue.

Which days to go

Day	What happens	Hotel price	Our call
FridayFri 12 Nov	Free practice and Practice; the session that sets the Q2 places	×1.6	The cheapest day inside the fence, and the only one where you can walk the whole circuit
SaturdaySat 13 Nov	Qualifying, then the Tissot Sprint in the afternoon	×2	The best single day — two sessions that both matter, and the city is still moving
SundaySun 14 Nov	Race day; MotoGP goes last, the warm-up is in the morning	×2.2	Book the Sunday night as well — the trams and the airport road will not move until late

Hotel price is what the same hotel costs on these dates against its rate four weeks before the event. Crowd and price are our estimates from how the event has run, not live rates.

Getting there

Adelaide Airport is 20 minutes from the city by taxi and about 30 by the J1 bus. Flights come through Melbourne and Sydney; the direct international list is short.

The circuit is in Victoria Park, on the eastern edge of the parklands. From the East End it is a 12-minute walk; from the western side of the CBD, take the tram to the Botanic Gardens stop and walk through the park.

The last trams and trains leave the city late on race night, but the roads around the parklands close for the circuit — give yourself an hour more than the map says.
