2027 GRIDLIFE
EVENT SCHEDULE
GRIDLIFE THUNDERHILL
We’re kicking off 2027 out West with a brand-new GRIDLIFE weekend, and a massive endurance race at the center of it. World Racing League is bringing 25-hour endurance racing back to Thunderhill, with teams racing from Saturday afternoon straight through the night and into Sunday.
Simultaneously, we’re surrounding Thunderhill with wheel-to-wheel racing, time attack, drifting, the GRIDLIFE Arcade, vendors, camping and plenty more to explore. Come for the endurance racing, stay for everything happening around it, and help us start the season with one very big weekend in California.
April 2–4, 2027 | Thunderhill Raceway Park | Willows, California
GRIDLIFE SOUTH CAROLINA
CMP weekends just hit different. Kershaw for three days of racing, time attack, drifting and quality trackside hangs with a growing group of friends that make South Carolina one of our favorite stops of the year.
GRIDLIFE Drift will keep the kart track hot all day, and into the evening with our Night Shift Drift mayhem. The party off track is non-stop with the fan favorite “Pump Party”, and the Overlander Camp Bonfire party that continues to grow each year!
GRIDLIFE South Carolina has developed into a stand-out camping party that kicks off the season, and we’re committing to blowing that up this year. This year’s event will focus on what this event does best - Motorsports, Camping, and one hell of a weekend party with our friends.
Bring the crew, set up camp and plan on spending a lot of time outside your tent. Don’t forget the firewood.
April 16–18, 2027 | Carolina Motorsports Park | Kershaw, South Carolina
GRIDLIFE MIDWEST FESTIVAL
Fourteen years later, there’s an energy in the air where the idea of GRIDLIFE first became a reality.
Our original festival is coming home to GingerMan for a non-stop weekend of racing, time attack, drifting, music, camping and a few thousand of our closest friends. The track stays busy all day, then our biggest music production of the season takes over when the sun goes down.
Camp with your crew, find a new favorite artist, dance under the stars at the main stage and wake up ready to do it all again. If Midwest is already an annual reunion, you get it. If you’ve never been, 2027 is a pretty good year to fix that.
June 4–6, 2027 | GingerMan Raceway | South Haven, Michigan
GRIDLIFE SUMMER APEX FESTIVAL
Summer Apex is heading back to The Glen, and year two is bigger and better.
Spend three days at one of the most iconic tracks in the country with wheel-to-wheel racing, TrackBattle Time Attack, full-course and skid pad drifting, live music and everything else that makes a GRIDLIFE festival a GRIDLIFE festival.
There’s always something happening somewhere, on track, at the main stage, in the festival grounds or back at camp. Grab your people, make the trip to Upstate New York and settle in for one of the biggest weekends of the summer.
July 23–25, 2027 | Watkins Glen International | Watkins Glen, New York
GRIDLIFE CIRCUIT LEGENDS
The golden era meets modern car culture at Circuit Legends. Pure GRIDLIFE.
We’re taking over Lime Rock Park for two days of racing, time attack, full-course drifting and some legendary cars. Watch the action on track, wander through the Concours and Showfield, then make your way over to the GRIDLIFE Arcade when you need a change of pace.
Add camping, vendors, partner activations and Saturday Nite Karaoke, and you’ve got a weekend made for anyone who can happily spend way too long talking about cars. Come touch grass with us.
August 20–21, 2027 | Lime Rock Park | Lakeville, Connecticut
GRIDLIFE VIRGINIA FESTIVAL
New track. New festival. A new level of the GRIDLIFE Festival experience.
Virginia International Raceway welcomes us for the first time with three days of Eibach GLTC, GLGT, TrackBattle, GRIDLIFE Drift, Radical Cup, live music and everything else we could fit into the weekend.
When the sun dips below the treeline, two nights of music keep things moving. The Arcade will be open, vendors will be out, campsites will be full and VIR will officially become part of the GRID.
Come help us break in a new one.
September 10 - 12, 2027 | Virginia International Raceway | Alton, Virginia
