IndyCar’s Thrilling Toronto Race Moves to Markham in 2026 – A New Era Begins!

IndyCar’s Thrilling Return to Canada: Major Venue Change for 2026!

In a stunning announcement that is set to shake the motorsport community, IndyCar has revealed that its beloved Toronto race will be moving to a brand-new venue for the 2026 season! Traditions are being redefined as the high-speed excitement shifts from Exhibition Place to the vibrant city of Markham, just 15 miles northeast of the original location.

Why the change, you ask? The answer lies in the grand scale of international sporting events! With the World Cup on the horizon and set to take over Exhibition Place during the same timeframe, the powers that be have opted for this strategic relocation. It’s a bold move that underscores the growing importance of IndyCar in the Canadian sporting landscape.

Markham, a city that has been rapidly evolving and expanding, is ready to embrace this high-octane event. Mayor Frank Scarpitti expressed his enthusiasm, stating, “We are excited to welcome the exhilarating experience of IndyCar Series racing hitting our streets in 2026. We are proud to welcome this world-class event to our community.” His gratitude extended to key stakeholders, including Green Savoree Toronto and Penske Entertainment Corp., emphasizing the collaborative effort that has brought this initiative to life in record time.

As the excitement builds, the new race will feature a meticulously designed 12-turn, 2.19-mile circuit that winds through the heart of downtown Markham. This layout, crafted by renowned track designer Tony Cotman of NZR Consulting, is poised to deliver thrilling racing action, complete with a double-sided pit lane that has proven successful in other recent IndyCar events. Enthusiasts can anticipate a fast-paced race that promises to thrill fans and drivers alike!

The inaugural race weekend is slated for August 14-16, 2026, marking a monumental moment in IndyCar history. This new agreement ensures that the series’ second-longest running street race, only behind Long Beach, will continue to flourish in a fresh environment, solidifying its status as a staple of Canadian motorsport culture.

As preparations ramp up for this electrifying event, Markham is not just ready to host the race – it’s ready to embrace a new chapter in its sports legacy. The countdown has begun, and the anticipation is palpable. Will you be there to witness the adrenaline rush of the IndyCar Series in its new home? Get ready for an unforgettable summer tradition that is set to ignite the streets of Markham!
