The Olympic Park Speedway is a motorcycle speedway located alongside the Murray River, at Olympic Park, Mildura, Victoria, Australia. [1] [2] The track is operated by the Mildura Motorcycle Club and hosts rounds of the Australian Solo Championship, the Victorian Solo Championship, the Australian Sidecar Championship and the Victorian Sidecar Championship. [3] [4] [2] The speedway track has a circumference of 302 metres and a junior track with a circumference of 112 metres. [5]
Historically the venue has hosted many important motorcycle speedway events, including qualifying rounds of the Speedway World Championship [6] [7] and multiple finals of the Australian Solo Championships, the first in 1979. [8]
The 2023 edition of the Australian Championships was cancelled due to the surrounding area being flooded when the Murray River broke its banks. [9]
