June 4–6, 2027. GingerMan Raceway. South Haven, Michigan.
The dates are officially locked for Year 14. We are heading back to our birthplace this June for GRIDLIFE Midwest Festival.
Midwest is the undisputed anchor of the season. It is where this organization started, and there is a specific kind of energy that only exists on this 2.14-mile Alan Wilson-designed circuit. It’s the flagship weekend where the largest music production of our season collides with a packed paddock, bringing the entire culture together for three days of track time and AFTERGRID fun.
If you thought last year was wild, we are reloading for an even bigger weekend in 2027. Midwest Festival will serve as Round 3 of the Championship, and we are expecting the grids to be completely maxed out. Last year saw nearly 250 cars rip around GingerMan Raceway, bringing exciting door-to-door Eibach GLTC and GLGT races, record-breaking TrackBattle time attack sessions, and the best drift cars in the country burning rubber.
Now is the time to get the group chat organized. You have exactly seven months to finish your winter builds to be on display in the Showfield and Back 40 and get your camping setups dialied in.
Tell the crew to clear their calendars and request the PTO now.
What Comes Next? We will be dropping all the details for Early Bird tickets—including VIP, General Admission, and camping—very soon.
For now, save the date, keep wrenching, and watch your inbox. We will see you in South Haven.
