The Daytona 500, set for Feb. 16, has sold out, the World Center of Racing announced Monday.
It will mark the 67th edition of the race, with the 68th already scheduled for Feb. 15, 2026. William Byron won last year’s Daytona 500.
“The Daytona 500 continues to be a spectacle of elite racing and entertainment, and the consecutive sellouts just prove this event is one of a kind,” Daytona International Speedway president Frank Kelleher said. “You can quite literally feel the atmosphere from the moment Speedweeks begins.
“The crowd is buzzing with excitement and every team, from the driver to the crew chief, is eager to get their season started. It all comes to a head when that green flag drops on Sunday, Feb. 16, and I can’t wait to see what this year’s Daytona 500 has in store for us.”
The 2025 NASCAR Cup Series season will begin with the Daytona 500 after the 2024 campaign featured 18 different race winners and three of the closest finishes in the circuit’s history. Joey Logano ended up being named champion for the third time in his career.
