Where to Find the Official Supercross Schedule

The official Monster Energy Supercross schedule is published on the AMA Supercross website (amasupercross.com) and updates throughout the year as events are confirmed. The schedule lists every round, the venue, the date, and ticket information for that location. This is the most reliable source because it reflects cancellations, postponements, and last-minute changes before they appear anywhere else.

You can also find the schedule on the official Supercross social media accounts on Instagram, X (formerly Twitter), and Facebook, where the series posts announcements about new rounds or changes. Many venues post their own event pages with local parking, gate times, and seating details that the main schedule does not include.

Key Takeaways

  • The AMA Supercross website is the official source for the complete schedule, and it updates when events change or are added.
  • Supercross typically runs from January through May, with 17 rounds across different cities, though the exact number varies year to year.
  • Each venue has its own ticket sales page, and prices and seat availability change as the event date approaches.
  • Practice and may have access to usually happen on Friday or Saturday morning, with the main races in the evening, so plan your day accordingly.
  • Tickets often sell out for popular rounds, especially those in major cities, so buying in advance is usually cheaper and more reliable than waiting.

When Supercross Season Runs and How Many Rounds There Are

Monster Energy Supercross typically begins in January and runs through May, with rounds held most weekends during that window. The number of rounds varies — recent seasons have had 17 rounds, but this changes based on scheduling, venue availability, and other factors. The series does not run year-round; there is a long off-season from June through December when riders train and prepare for the next season.

The schedule is not the same every year. Some venues return annually, while others rotate in and out. A few cities host multiple rounds in the same season, and occasionally a round moves to a different date or location. Checking the current year's schedule on amasupercross.com is the only way to know which cities are hosting events and when.

How to Buy Tickets for Specific Rounds

Tickets are sold through the venue's official ticketing partner, which is usually Ticketmaster, StubHub, or the venue's own box office. The AMA Supercross website links directly to the ticket page for each round, so you do not have to search for it. Prices vary widely depending on the venue size, seat location, and how close the event date is.

Tickets typically go on sale two to four months before the event. Early-bird pricing is often lower than prices closer to the event date. If a round sells out, tickets sometimes become available again through resale platforms like StubHub or Ticketmaster's resale section, though these are usually more expensive than the original price.

Some venues offer military discounts, group rates, or family packages, so check the specific venue's page before buying individual tickets. VIP packages that include pit access or premium seating are also available at most rounds, though they cost significantly more than general admission.

What to Expect on Race Day: Schedule and Timing

Gates typically open in the early afternoon, though exact times vary by venue. Practice sessions and may have access to rounds usually run in the late afternoon, followed by the main races in the evening. The entire event from gates opening to the final race can last six to eight hours, so plan to arrive early if you want to see practice or find good parking.

The main 450SX and 250SX races are the headline events and happen last, usually starting around 7 or 8 p.m. local time. If you only care about the main races and not practice, you can arrive later in the day, but parking and concession lines are much longer closer to race time. Bring cash or a card for food, drinks, and merchandise — prices at the venue are higher than outside.

How to Stay Updated on Schedule Changes

The AMA Supercross social media accounts post updates about postponements, cancellations, or date changes as soon as they are announced. Following the official Supercross Instagram or X account ensures you see these announcements before they spread elsewhere. Venue-specific social media pages also post local updates about parking changes, gate closures, or weather-related delays.

If you have already bought tickets and an event is postponed or moved, the ticketing platform will notify you and explain your options — usually a refund or transfer to the new date. Check your email for these notifications, as they sometimes go to spam folders.

Regional and International Supercross Events

The main Monster Energy Supercross series runs in the United States only. However, Supercross also holds international events in places like Australia, Europe, and other countries, though these are separate from the main U.S. schedule and operate under different rules and timing.

If you are looking for Supercross-style racing outside the main U.S. season, the AMA also sanctions other motocross events like the Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship, which runs in the summer. These are different from Supercross — they are outdoor events rather than indoor stadium races — but they feature many of the same riders and are worth exploring if you want more racing throughout the year.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I watch Supercross on TV or online if I cannot go in person?

Yes. Supercross races are broadcast on NBC, CNBC, and Peacock, with most main events shown live or on tape delay. Check the AMA Supercross website or your local TV listings for broadcast times for each round. Peacock offers live streaming of most rounds if you have a subscription.

Do I need to buy tickets in advance or can I buy them at the gate?

Buying in advance is strongly recommended because popular rounds sell out, and gate-day prices are usually higher than advance prices. Some venues do sell tickets at the gate if the event is not sold out, but availability is not may provide.

What is the difference between 450SX and 250SX?

These are two separate races held at the same event. 450SX is the main class for larger bikes and more experienced riders, while 250SX is for smaller bikes and younger or developing riders. Both races happen on the same track but at different times during the event.

Are there any free Supercross events?

No, all official Monster Energy Supercross rounds require a ticket. However, some venues hold free practice sessions or fan events in the days leading up to the race — check the specific venue's website for details.

What happens if the event is cancelled due to weather?

If a round is cancelled, the ticketing platform will issue a refund or allow you to transfer your ticket to a makeup date if one is scheduled. The AMA Supercross website will announce any cancellations and next steps as soon as the decision is made.
