    Townsville 2023 in two minutes: All the drama

    Event Manager Matt Ramsden said this year’s event in Townsville is shaping as one of the biggest three-day spectacles Supercars has ever put on in North Queensland.

    “We’re very excited to get back to Townsville,” Ramsden said.

    “We’ve got one of our biggest on-track lineups of the year with Supercars and four of the best support categories in Australia filling the card and featuring some of the best young drivers from around the country.

    “We look forward to putting on a three-day show that will be unforgettable for our fans when we hit the streets on July 5-7.”

    The NTI Townsville 500 is the biggest annual sporting event in North Queensland and has become a staple on the Australian sporting calendar since it began in 2009.

    Now in its 15th year, the event will celebrate its 40th Supercars race. The first ever race in Townsville was won by Jamie Whincup.

    General admission, corporate hospitality and grandstand tickets for the 2024 NTI Townsville 500 running July 5-7 are available through Supercars.com.
