NASCAR announced Monday agreements with 23 tracks to field NASCAR Sprint Cup Series races for the next five years. Additionally, 24 tracks will host NASCAR Xfinity Series races through 2020.

NASCAR also announced its 2016 schedule for both of these national series. The schedule and actual placement of the dates within each given season’s schedule beyond 2016 will be part of the on-going discussions between NASCAR and the tracks. Details are being finalized for the 2016 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series schedule to be announced at a later time.

“NASCAR and the tracks take seriously our collective responsibility to the fans and each stakeholder to ensure the sport is healthy, strong and growing, so we can deliver great racing to the fans for many decades to come,” said Steve O’Donnell, NASCAR executive vice president and chief racing development officer. “The live event experience always will be important to creating a lifetime fan in NASCAR.

“Among the goals that we set out to accomplish with our track partners was to provide consistency for race fans and the industry stakeholders. We feel like we have a nice balance of that for 2016. The stability of five-year agreements positions us well to deliver fans with schedules as early as possible over the next several years. This is a new approach for our industry, and one that benefits everyone: fans, tracks, teams, drivers, OEMs, media and partners.”

NASCAR will kick off the 2016 season against the new backdrop of a completely reimagined Daytona International Speedway. Daytona Rising, the speedway’s $400 million redevelopment project, will be complete when both the NASCAR Xfinity Series and NASCAR Sprint Cup Series launch at Daytona Speedweeks. The 2016 Daytona 500 will be held on February 21.

After the Daytona 500, NASCAR events will be held the following week at Atlanta Motor Speedway. Both series then will travel to Las Vegas Motor Speedway, Phoenix International Raceway and Auto Club Speedway.

Among the changes to the 2016 schedule:

•Pocono Raceway will host its first NASCAR Xfinity Series event in June, with that series joining the Sprint Cup Series for a companion event at the famed three-turn track.
•The spring events at Richmond International Raceway move to a Saturday and Sunday companion event for the Xfinity Series and Sprint Cup Series, from the previous Friday and Saturday schedule.
•The first series stop at Dover International Speedway will move earlier in the schedule, to be held prior to the May events at Charlotte Motor Speedway.
•NBC will usher in its 2016 race schedule in July at Daytona with the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series event moving back to a Saturday evening event.
•The August Sprint Cup Series event at Michigan will move to later in the month.
