Hidden Valley’s Iconic Supercars event is expanding with plans to introduce an Indigenous Round unveiled.
The race will take place between June 19 and 21 next year, marking its 28th year held in Darwin.
The new racing format will feature a 100km sprint race on the Friday, followed by 200km races on Saturday and Sunday.
Minister for Major Events and Tourism and Hospitality Marie-Clare Boothby says it’s a major step forward for the Territory’s racing industry.
“Expanding the program from two to three days of championship racing will encourage people to come earlier, stay longer, spend more, and experience everything the Territory has to offer.”
“This year’s Supercars event attracted nearly 37,000 attendances and injected $27.6 million into our economy, including $21.8 million in new money,” she says.
