On February 18, 2026, Victoria lost the Australian Motorcycle Grand Prix, ending its three-decade connection to Phillip Island. This decision followed the Victorian government's refusal to relocate the event to Melbourne, representing a blow to the state. This development occurred as South Australia prepared to become the new host for the race, a significant setback for Victoria, which had hosted the event for nearly 30 years. Rights holder Dorna Sports had reportedly been in negotiations with the Victorian government for several months regarding a contract extension. Earlier on the same day, reports indicated that the Australian Motorcycle Grand Prix held at Phillip Island in October 2026 would be the last under the current contract. The race is set to move to Adelaide from 2027, with a formal announcement having been anticipated.
