The NSW Government remains committed to the Newcastle 500. The Minns Labor Government has provided funding to host the race in Newcastle in 2024 and we have the support of Supercars for that 1-year extension before a longer plan is finalised. The government is working towards a 5-year deal with Supercars and will work with the landowner City of Newcastle Council to find a way forward. The future of the event now sits firmly in the hands of the Newcastle City Council. The Newcastle 500, staged by Supercars Australia, has been popular event among visitors and broadcast viewers nationally since its introduction in 2017, generating strong visitor expenditure for the Hunter region.
