The series has had several title sponsorships since the 1970s, with the series being named the Winston Cup, the Nextel Cup, the Sprint Cup and the Monster Energy Cup. The most successful drivers in the series have been Richard Petty, Dale Earnhardt and Jimmie Johnson. Each driver is a seven-time Cup Series champion.

The regular season of the Cup Series consists of 26 races that tally race wins and points to seed drivers into a ten-race playoff. This determines the Cup Series Champion. Races take place at 24 different tracks located in 21 different states. The regular season begins with the Daytona 500 at Daytona International Speedway in February. It ends with the NASCAR Championship Weekend at Phoenix Raceway in November. Get your NASCAR Cup Series tickets to see if your favorite driver will become the next champion.

What types of tickets are available?

  • Refunds/Exchanges: No refunds are given if a race is postponed, but you can use your ticket on the new date or time. In very rare cases of cancellation, tracks will announce refund procedures.
