NASCAR has announced the postponement of its highly anticipated NASCAR Next event, originally scheduled for October 4, 2024. The event will now take place on September 6, 2025.

The NASCAR Next event, known for showcasing the rising stars of the sport and offering fans a glimpse into the future of NASCAR, has become a significant fixture in the racing calendar. The postponement has generated considerable attention and speculation within the racing community.
According to a statement from NASCAR’s Vice President of Event Operations, Lisa Reynolds, the rescheduling was necessitated by a combination of factors, including venue availability and conflicts with other major racing events. “After careful consideration and discussions with all parties involved, we have determined that moving the NASCAR Next event to September 6, 2025, will allow us to deliver the best possible experience for fans and participants,” Reynolds said. “We understand that this change may be disappointing to some, but it is essential to ensure that the event is executed at the highest standard.”
The new date will allow NASCAR to avoid overlapping with several key events in the racing calendar, including the NASCAR Cup Series playoffs and other major motorsport competitions.
