Dates Announced For 2023 Castrol Gateway Dirt Nationals
The 2023 Castrol Gateway Dirt Nationals will be held December 14-16 at The Dome at America's Center.
Following a successful and entertaining event this past weekend in St. Louis, the dates have been announced for the 2023 Castrol Gateway Dirt Nationals. Next year's event inside The Dome at America's Center will take place December 14-16, which is two weeks later than this year's event.
We want to THANK all of our amazing Fans, Competitors, Teams and Staff for another great year of the Gateway Dirt Nationals. Without the support from each and every one of you this event would not be possible. We will be back again December 14th - 16th 2023 🏁 #GatewayDirt

Unlike in past years when the event was held the week before the PRI Trade Show in Indianapolis, next year's event is scheduled for the weekend after PRI. Additionally, the event will not be held on the same weekend as another major motorsports event, the Snowball Derby at Five Flags Speedway.
Next year's Castrol Gateway Dirt Nationals will be the seventh version of the indoor dirt racing event. The inaugural race was held in 2016, and the event was held four straight years before the COVID-19 pandemic canceled the event in 2020. A successful return for the event in 2021 set the stage for a wildly entertaining version of the event featuring many memorable moments in 2022.
