The 2026 NASCAR Cup Series Freeway Insurance 500 at Phoenix Raceway is set for Sunday, October 18, 2026. This race serves as the opening race of the Round of 8 in the NASCAR Playoffs.
The race weekend includes four exciting events:
Yes. Phoenix Raceway offers several spacious free general parking lots around the venue. It’s best to arrive early to avoid traffic and get a closer spot. For detailed lot locations and entry routes, see the official parking map and guide.
Absolutely. The sound levels at Phoenix Raceway’s 1-mile oval can be intense. Earplugs or noise-reducing headphones are strongly advised for everyone – especially children – to protect against hearing damage.
The weather in mid-October/early-November is usually comfortable, with daytime highs around 70–80°F (21–27°C) and cooler evenings dropping to 55–65°F (13–18°C). Rain is uncommon, but it’s wise to pack a light jacket for the evening and a poncho just in case.
