Australian Superbike Championship Round 3 - The Bend
Sporting Events
May 1-3, 2026
The Bend will host the third round of the mi-bike Motorcycle Insurance Australian Superbike Championship presented by Motul (ASBK) on May 1-3.
The Bend, officially opened in 2018, is one of the premier circuits in the world. The 18-turn international layout used in the ASBK Championship provides massive variety – blind turns, sweeping corners, hard braking zones and areas for maximum acceleration – which makes it anything but a walk in the park. It's the degree of difficulty which makes it such a formidable challenge for riders and a bonanza for spectators.
The infrastructure, corporate and spectator facilities at The Bend are world class, which means all the off-track ASBK activities – welcome centre displays, fan zone, the ASBK Trade Alley, 'Mini Moto come and try' sessions, autograph sessions and pitlane walks – are also extremely popular.
The huge welcome centre also hosts ASBK press conferences for the fans, and accommodation is also available on site at the 100-room Rydges Pit Lane Hotel and cabins and camping at The Bend Big4 Holiday Park – as well as options for all budgets across Tailem Bend and towns close to the Murray River.
