Plan the visit
Use March 5-7 as the race-weekend window
NASCAR's official 2027 schedule announcement confirms the COTA weekend for March 5-7, with the Cup Series DuraMAX Texas Grand Prix on Sunday, March 7. Additional start times and on-track details can be added when NASCAR and COTA publish them.
Plan the circuit trip before arrival
COTA is outside central Austin, so parking, shuttle and road-access choices matter. Recheck official race-weekend transportation instructions and allow extra time for peak arrival and departure periods.
Separate the weekend from Austin's other COTA events
Formula 1, Formula E and other series use the same facility under different schedules and policies. Use NASCAR's current weekend guide for ticket access, allowed items, camping and fan programming.
