Know Before You Go: GT World Alabama

Barber Motorsports Park | September 25–27, 2026

There’s nothing quite like Barber Motorsports Park! Known as the Augusta National of Motorsports, this stunning 740-acre venue tucked away just outside of Birmingham combines a world-class racing circuit with one of the most unique automotive destinations in the country.

As SRO America heads to Alabama for the penultimate event of the 2026 season, championship battles are heating up and every lap is becoming increasingly important. With five different series on track throughout the event, there will be plenty of racing to keep busy, with even more opportunities off-track to make the most of their weekend.

Here's everything you need to know before heading to Barber Motorsports Park for GT World Alabama.

Birmingham Car Festival

The car corral is getting a serious upgrade for GT World Alabama with the Birmingham Car Festival presented by Corsa Crew.

This enhanced fan experience brings together an impressive collection of performance, exotic, and collector vehicles, giving fans the chance to get up close with some incredible machines away from the race track. Fans will also have the opportunity to turn into judges and vote for their favorite vehicles, with cash prizes up for grabs!

So make sure you stop by, check out the wide array of cars on display, cast your vote, and see which entries take home the top honors. The Birmingham Car Festival is a must-visit stop throughout the weekend. Find out more about it here
