British Superbikes: 2026 provisional calendar announced for 30th anniversary
British Superbikes: The provisional calendar for the landmark BSB30 anniversary has been announced today (Thursday 16 October).
The Championship will retain an 11-round title battle, with Oulton Park hosting the opening round of the 30th anniversary on May Bank Holiday weekend. This will be followed by the first of two 2026 visits to Donington Park later in the month.
Knockhill’s annual Scottish event will host round three in June, before the heat turns up with summer visits to Snetterton and Brands Hatch in July. The title chase ramps up in August with a return to Oulton Park, a Thruxton thriller and the fan favourite bank holiday ‘Party in the Park’ at Cadwell Park.
The Showdown stage of the Championship will once again kick off at the TT Circuit Assen in September before a return to Donington Park for the penultimate round. As is traditional, Brands Hatch will set the stage for the title decider.
There will be two official tests prior to the start of the 2026 season, with the first taking place in April at Donington Park, before moving to Oulton Park ahead of the opening round.
