Bathurst 12 Hour Sets Feb. 11–14, 2027 Dates, Expands to Four Days

The fixed mid‑February slot gives global GT3 teams clearer freight timelines.

Overview

  • The Bathurst 12 Hour, which confirmed plans Wednesday, will run February 11–14, 2027 in a four‑day format at Mount Panorama in Bathurst, New South Wales.
  • The extra day enables paid Thursday testing, a larger Track to Town parade, and more fan activations, with any added support categories such as GT4 Australia still unconfirmed.
  • Organisers said the race will continue to open the Intercontinental GT Challenge, the globe‑spanning championship for GT3 endurance teams.
  • Meguiar’s extended its naming‑rights partnership through 2027, providing commercial stability for the larger program.
  • This follows a 2026 edition that delivered the biggest grid in six years and a record 55,231 three‑day crowd, which local leaders say brought a strong boost to Bathurst’s economy.
