LONG POND, Pa. \u2014 Pocono Raceway\u2019s NASCAR weekend will return to its full three-series format in 2027 as the NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series rejoins the schedule after a one-year absence.<\/p>\n
The June 11-13 weekend will once again feature three national series races in three days, highlighted by Sunday\u2019s Great American Getaway 400 presented by VISIT PA NASCAR Cup Series race.<\/p>\n
The return of the Truck Series restores a popular format for fans attending the \u201cTricky Triangle,\u201d with the MillerTech Battery 200 kicking off the weekend on Friday, followed by the NASCAR O\u2019Reilly Auto Parts Series on Saturday and the Cup Series finale on Sunday.<\/p>\n
The 2027 Cup race will carry additional significance as it marks the 54th consecutive season NASCAR\u2019s premier series has competed at Pocono Raceway, one of the sport\u2019s most unique and recognizable tracks. The 2.5-mile triangular layout, featuring three distinct corners modeled after different speedways, has challenged drivers since its Cup Series debut in 1974.<\/p>\n
Pocono continues to be one of NASCAR\u2019s hottest tickets.<\/p>\n
The raceway has sold out its NASCAR Cup Series event in each of the past four years, evidence of the strong demand for the track\u2019s lone annual Cup weekend. That popularity was further reflected by fans voting Pocono Raceway as the USA TODAY 10Best Readers\u2019 Choice \u201cBest NASCAR Track\u201d for three consecutive years.<\/p>\n
The return of the Truck Series also gives fans more value from a weekend ticket package, bringing all three of NASCAR\u2019s national touring divisions back together at the Pennsylvania facility.<\/p>\n
Track officials have already placed tickets on sale for the event, with Cup Series seats starting at $65 and the speedway\u2019s long-running \u201cKids Free\u201d program returning for all three race days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"LONG POND, Pa. \u2014 Pocono Raceway\u2019s NASCAR weekend will return to its full three-series format in 2027 as…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":864118,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[446],"tags":[49,48,634,82],"class_list":["post-864117","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nascar","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-nascar","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/864117","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=864117"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/864117\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/864118"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=864117"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=864117"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=864117"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
