2027 North West 200 Dates Confirmed

2027 North West 200 Dates :

2027 NW 200 Banner

The 2027 North West 200 will run from the 10th – 15th May 2027.

The North West 200 will run a week later than usual in 2027, bringing a welcome return to its traditional race week schedule with Tuesday hosting the opening practice session of the week.

The calendar shift avoids a direct clash with the Northern Ireland Assembly and local council elections, where polling day lands on Thursday, 6 May 2027.

To steer clear of the political machinery, the Triangle circuit will roar to life a week later, running from Monday 10th May through to Saturday, 15 May. The revision means the paddock reverts to its much-loved traditional format: opening qualifying on Tuesday, final qualifying alongside evening races on Thursday, and the headline race day wrapping up proceedings on Saturday.

Road closures are set for 09:00 across all three days of action, with a three race schedule for Thursday evening followed by a stacked six-race card on Saturday.

Cooper and McWilliams Master the “Triangle” in Rain-Hit NW200 Opener

The North Coast of Northern Ireland welcomed the road racing elite today for the opening practice sessions of the 2026 North West 200. While the atmosphere in the paddock was electric, the weather proved a temperamental host. Heavy rain spells and shifting winds across the 8.9-mile “Triangle” course forced riders to contend with a stop-start schedule and a rapidly evolving track surface.

Despite the tricky conditions, two names dominated the conversation: Richard Cooper and the ageless Jeremy McWilliams.


Superbike: Cooper’s BMW Masterclass

The premier class hit the tarmac under a grey, damp sky that tested both courage and tire choice. Richard Cooper proved he is the man to beat this week, navigating the BMW to a blistering 4m 51.332s lap. He finished a comfortable 2.6 seconds ahead of Honda’s Paul Jordan.

The most successful rider in the history of the Briggs Equipment North West 200, Alastair Seeley, is set to return to the iconic north coast event in 2026 with one clear objective — securing a milestone 30th race victory.

The 46-year-old Carrickfergus rider will compete in the Supersport class at the May 4–9 event aboard a Binch Pro Racing Ducati, backed by 3B Construction. With 29 wins already to his name around the legendary 8.9-mile Triangle course, Seeley remains as motivated as ever to extend his record.

A Champion’s Drive Remains Undiminished

After missing the 2024 event due to a lack of competitive machinery, Seeley returned last year and made an immediate impact. He secured a podium finish in the Merrow Hotel Superbike race on the Nicholl Oils/SMS BMW — a performance that reinforced his enduring competitiveness.

However, for Seeley, the story remains unfinished.
