The wait is over! The 2026 VMXdN Hawkstone is here, with one of the biggest weekends on the British motocross calendar taking over the iconic Hawkstone Park circuit in Shropshire this August Bank Holiday weekend.
After four hugely successful editions at Foxhill, the Vets Motocross des Nations has a new home for 2026, with promoters Dave King and Rob ‘Doc Wob’ Walters joining forces with the Salop Motor Club to bring the celebration of two-stroke motocross to one of the most historic circuits in the sport.
The paddock is already filling up at Hawkstone, with Friday’s Show ‘N’ Shine kicking off the main attractions before the bikes hit the track for two huge days of racing on Saturday and Sunday.

Team GB will also be looking for glory in the International Team Race, with Tommy Searle, Brad Anderson and Elliott Banks-Browne flying the flag on home soil.
Throw in hundreds of two-strokes, packed start gates and Hawkstone Park’s unique circuit we are in for a belter of a weekend, and we look forward to covering it for you here at Dirt Hub.

Live Streaming
At the time of writing, there has been no announcement of a live stream for VMXdN Hawkstone 2026, and we understand that the event is not expected to be streamed this year.
If that changes, we’ll let you know. For now, it looks like the options are following the action via live timing on Speedhive or being there in person at Hawkstone Park.
