The Motocross of Nations is Returning to Assen

The Cathedral of Speed is set to host the FIM Motocross of Nations once again. On Saturday at the MXGP of France in Ernée, Infront Moto Racing announced that the race will return to the historic venue in 2027.

Ironman Raceway in Indiana will host this years MXoN with Ernée, France hosting in 2026.

Assen first played host to World Motocross in 2015 and hosted an MXGP event for four consecutive years before holding the 2019 Monster Energy FIM Motocross of Nations, famously won by the host nation.

The circuit is built around the tarmac circuit’s final corners and pit lane complex, with the local area’s deep sand an inherent feature of the track’s challenge for the riders.  

David Luongo: “We are proud to bring the Monster Energy Motocross of Nations back to Assen in 2027. The previous edition at this legendary venue left a lasting impression on fans and teams alike, and The Netherlands has always played a key role in the history of our sport. Hosting the 80th edition of this iconic event at such an iconic circuit is the perfect combination. Together with the FIM, the K.N.M.V. and the local organizers, we are fully committed to delivering another world-class celebration of motocross that will honour both the legacy and the future of the MXoN.”
