The 17-race Supercross schedule is poised to visit 16 different cities spread across 13 states, from California and Arizona to Ohio and Pennsylvania. New to the schedule this season is a stop at Huntington Bank Field in Cleveland, Ohio for the first time in over 30 years. After a brief hiatus, stops in Houston, Texas at NRG Stadium and Nashville, Tennessee at Nissan Stadium, return.
As it has been for more than five decades, the outdoor component of the regular season will feature the same hallowed venues for the 55th edition of the Pro Motocross Championship. The summer campaign will once again consist of 11 races and 22 grueling motos but will begin one week later than what has been tradition, which will give the world’s best racers and the sport’s most elite teams an additional week of preparation following Supercross and a well-deserved weekend at home during the Memorial Day holiday.

The biggest stars in the sport will be lining up at the Anaheim Opener in January as the 450SX Class once again promises to deliver one of the deepest fields in recent memory. Five past champions – Jason Anderson, Eli Tomac, Chase Sexton, defending Supercross champion Cooper Webb, and defending SMX World Champion Jett Lawrence (Australia) will be fighting for another title. Vying for their first crack at the crown will be top contenders Hunter Lawrence (Australia, SMX World Championship and Pro Motocross runner-up), Ken Roczen (Germany), Dylan Ferrandis (France), Justin Cooper, Aaron Plessinger, Malcolm Stewart, and Justin Barcia each of whom are former champions, race winners, and podium finishers.
When the series shifts outdoors on May 30, defending champion Jett Lawrence will look to extend his dominance against former champions Chase Sexton, Eli Tomac, Dylan Ferrandis, and Ken Roczen. Challenging for their first Pro Motocross title are 2025 runner-up Hunter Lawrence, fourth-place finisher Justin Cooper, fifth-place finisher RJ Hampshire in his rookie campaign, as well as Jorge Prado and Aaron Plessinger.

The first of three Triple Crown events will take place at Round 4 on Saturday, January 31 at NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas followed by rounds 9 and 14 on Saturday, March 7 at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana and Saturday, April 18 at Huntington Bank Field in Cleveland, Ohio. The Triple Crown, three-race format is a break from the traditional one Main Event race format and has become a fan favorite since its inception in 2018.
Teams will decide later in the year which athletes will be competing in each respective 250SX Class Divisional Championship, but fans can expect some epic battles as 2026 will feature the return of defending Western Division Champion and 250 Class Pro Motocross Champion, Haiden Deegan and runner-up finishers on the East and West, Seth Hammaker and Julien Beaumer. Defending SMX World Champion Jo Shimoda is still seeking his first Supercross and Pro Motocross championship and will be in hot pursuit of those titles in 2026. Not to be forgotten, seasoned veterans Jordon Smith, Cameron McAdoo, Levi Kitchen, Austin Forkner, Max Anstie (U.K.), Chance Hymas and Nate Thrasher are all in the conversation for wins and championships in either division.

FanFest is currently planned for all Supercross rounds except Detroit, Mich. (Round 11). The expansive outside footprint features unprecedented access to the sport’s biggest stars with an up-close and intimate view of their racing machines and team rigs. As the name implies, FanFest is a festival for the fans and has become a major part of the Supercross experience where fans can jump back and forth between the paddock and the stadium to also watch practice and qualifying.
