2027 NASCAR Cup Series Schedule: Dates, Times, TV Channels, and Live Streams

The 2027 NASCAR Cup Series season begins on February 13 at Daytona International Speedway with the Wheatley Vodka Clash, leading into the Daytona 500 on February 21. Fans can watch the nine-month campaign via Fox, FS1, Prime Video, TNT, and USA Network, with streaming available through Fubo and DIRECTV.

NASCAR has finalized its 2027 roadmap, a schedule that balances traditional high-speed ovals with modern experimental venues. As reported by The Sporting News, the season spans from February through November, kicking off with a high-stakes weekend in Daytona before moving through a diverse rotation of tracks across the United States.

The 2027 calendar introduces several notable shifts in venue and postseason structure. For instance, the All-Star Race is set to return to North Wilkesboro Speedway after spending a single year at Dover. Additionally, the schedule sees a return to Naval Base Coronado in San Diego following its successful 2026 debut. The postseason, known as the Chase, will also see a reshuffling of tracks; Richmond, Watkins Glen, and New Hampshire have moved into the playoff window, while Darlington, Gateway, and Bristol have been moved out.

Broadcast partners split the 2027 racing calendar

Viewers will need to navigate multiple networks to follow the full season, as the broadcast rights remain divided among several major media entities. The season opens with Fox Sports handling the initial stretch on Fox and FS1. A significant five-week block in the early summer will be broadcast exclusively on Prime Video, followed by a five-week period where the In-Season Challenge airs on TNT.

The final stretch of the regular season and the entirety of the 2027 Chase will move to the USA Network. For those preferring to stream, DIRECTV provides access to the Fox channels, TNT, and USA. Fubo also offers coverage for all races appearing on Fox and FS1. Listeners can catch every race live via the SiriusXM app on channel 90, which provides both the traditional race call and specific driver audio feeds.
