Fall 2026 Update

We’ve made the decision to pause our fall event at Charlotte Motor Speedway for 2026.

This comes after working closely with the Speedway team and exploring multiple options across the campus. While we couldn’t align everything needed for 2026, we’re incredibly appreciative of their continued partnership.

So what’s next?

➡️ We’re going all-in on making Spring Charlotte AutoFair 2027 (April 8–10, 2027) bigger and better, building on the growth and enthusiasm

➡️ We’re continuing to build momentum with Spirit of Wilkes 2026 this October 23-24

We’re excited about where things are headed and can’t wait to see you at the next one.
