VAILO Adelaide 500 schedule released

By Timothy Neal

Date posted: August 9, 2024

The schedule for the Supercars season ending VAILO Adelaide 500 has been released with the Gen3’s on track across all four days for the event’s 25th anniversary.

There’s just Under 100 days until the Supercars grand finale, as the street racing event celebrates a quarter of a century with a highly anticipated track schedule (see full schedule at bottom of article).

The current standings suggest that the 2024 Supercars championship could well be up for grabs come the final weekend, with Will Brown, Chaz Mostert, and Broc Feeney all in the frame.

VAILO Adelaide 500 Chief Executive Mark Warren said that they look forward to delivering another stellar 500.

“The campaign is a fresh approach to celebrating the event and the reasons why lifelong race fans, together with first time racegoers, enjoy our event so much,” he said.

“Since the VAILO Adelaide 500’s return in 2022, the event and fan experience continue to reach new entertainment levels. 

“This year we are providing fans with a true motorsport mecca and the campaign is a playful take on why so many of our fans go “all-in”.

Trans Am 2020 Adelaide 500

The V8 Trans Am machines are a welcome return addition to the 2024 VAILO Adelaide 500

Last year saw an estimated 260,000 fans pass through the grounds, with the event’s rebirth since the pandemic fast becoming one of the best on the calendar.

Complementing the on-track schedule are event firsts, including NAPA Speedway Sprintcars in the City over both Thursday and Friday nights, and Round 3 of the Australian Supercross Championship.

Supporting the Supercars is the V8 SuperUtes, Stadium Super Trucks, Trans Am, the Dunlop Series, and the Carrera Cup.

The 2024 VAILO Adelaide 500 will be held November 14-17, for more information visit adelaide500.com.au
