What’s on at the Le Mans race tracks in 2021?

Ready for next year? As an unusually difficult year comes to an end, the Automobile Club de l’Ouest is confidently looking forward to 2021, which will be an action-packed year with another history-making 24 Hours of Le Mans as a highlight.

The year will kick off with Exclusive Drive, a great opportunity to see and try out some very special sports cars.

Then comes the 44th 24 Hours Motos, followed by another major event – the French Motorcycle Grand Prix on 14–16 May. 

The 24 Hours season will continue with the rollerblade event then Open Kart, ahead of the eagerly awaited 89th 24 Hours of Le Mans and the launch of the Hypercar era. For the first time, Test Day will take place the weekend before the event, June 6.

In July, we have Le Mans Classic and later the return of the 24 Hours Karting, after the 35th event of its kind was called off in 2020. Likewise the 36th 24 Hours Camions truck meeting, which is rescheduled for 25–26 September 2021.

The traditional end-of-season Trophée Tourisme Endurance event will bring the year to a close, so there’s plenty to look forward to for motorsports fans!

(*) Other events are planned but we are waiting for the relevant federations or organisers to confirm the dates for 2021.
