A Milestone Weekend for Pocono
Pocono Raceway, the 2.5‑mile triangular circuit that has defined American stock car racing since 1974, continues to captivate fans with its distinctive three‑corner layout. The track’s NASCAR Cup Series event has sold out for four straight years, and it was recently crowned USA TODAY 10Best Readers’ Choice ‘Best NASCAR Track’ for the third consecutive season.
The 2027 schedule will see Pocono host a three‑race weekend from June 11‑13, featuring the MillerTech Battery 200 on Friday, the O’Reilly Auto Parts Series on Saturday, and the Great American Getaway 400 on Sunday. The Sunday Cup race will mark the 54th consecutive season that the premier series has concluded at the Pennsylvania venue, underscoring the track’s lasting place in the sport’s narrative.
Triple-Header Returns to the Triangle
The return of the CRAFTSMAN Truck Series to Pocono after a one‑year absence adds extra excitement to the weekend. Fans will now be able to experience all three of NASCAR’s national touring divisions in a single ticket package, a value proposition that the series says will deepen the weekend’s appeal. In addition, the popular ‘Kids Free’ program will be offered again across all three race days, and Cup Series seats will be available starting at $65.
Beyond the on‑track action, the event reflects Pocono’s ability to evolve while honoring its heritage. By reuniting the Truck Series with the Cup and Xfinity dates, the track promises a weekend that blends tradition with fresh competition, reinforcing its status as a premier destination for NASCAR enthusiasts.
