WEM, the new commercial rights holder for the Australian Motocross Championship, has released a provisional calendar for 2027, with the eight-round season to begin in Victoria in March and conclude with back-to-back rounds in Queensland in August.

The championship will be run in two distinct blocks: the first four rounds in March-April and the second stanza in July-August, also visiting South Australia and New South Wales in a multi-state battle to crown the next batch of Australian champions. Specific venues for all eight rounds will be announced next week.

WEM also confirmed that Australia’s premier motocross championship will be rebranded as ‘AUSMX’, replacing the ‘ProMX’ moniker used since 2021. The 2027 AUSMX provisional calendar is as follows.

Kevin Williams - CEO of WEM: “A lot of people have asked me whether this is the return of the MX Nationals,” said Kevin Williams. “We had great success and grew the series as the MX Nationals. We’re excited to build on that success and launch the next chapter as AUSMX. “AUSMX stands for the Australian Motocross Championship. That’s what we’re here to promote, and the coveted No. 1 plate is what riders are chasing.”
