In 2025, the NASCAR All-Star Race will be returning to North Wilkesboro Speedway for the third consecutive year. The annual $1 million exhibition race is set to take place on May 18, following this year’s race scheduled for Sunday night. The track, which was last visited by NASCAR in 1996, has been renovated over the past year with a new pavement.
The decision to keep the All-Star Race at North Wilkesboro has been met with excitement from many drivers, including Cup Series driver Chase Elliott. Elliott expressed his support for the decision, emphasizing the track’s historical significance in NASCAR. He also commended the track’s refurbishment as a sign of long-term commitment to the venue.
Last year, Kyle Larson emerged victorious in a dominant performance at the All-Star Race. Fans turned out in large numbers, signaling the potential for continued success at North Wilkesboro Speedway. Larson is considered a favorite for the upcoming race, pending his availability due to scheduling conflicts with the Indianapolis 500.
In addition to the All-Star Race, the NASCAR truck series will also make its return to North Wilkesboro in 2025. This ensures an action-packed weekend of racing festivities for fans and drivers alike in North Wilkesboro, a hub of NASCAR activity near Charlotte.
