Race Tracks in Argentina
Argentina has one of the deepest motorsport networks in South America, built almost entirely around Turismo Carretera (TC), the country's biggest domestic series, which tours a national calendar of more than thirty municipal and provincial autódromos rather than concentrating on a handful of showcase circuits. The Buenos Aires metropolitan area anchors the scene at the Autódromo Oscar y Juan Gálvez, host of the country's Formula One and Formula E history and now being rebuilt for a MotoGP-standard layout, while the Autódromo Internacional Termas de Río Hondo in Santiago del Estero is the country's other international-grade venue, hosting MotoGP since 2014. Beyond those two sit town circuits from Tierra del Fuego to Salta, most built or rebuilt by municipalities specifically to host a TC or TC2000 round: San Luis, San Juan's Villicum, La Plata, Balcarce (birthplace of five-time world champion Juan Manuel Fangio), Rafaela, Río Cuarto and dozens more. Karting is popular but less formally organised than the car scene. This guide also covers Argentina's notable closures, including the dismantled Potrero de los Funes circuit and the short-lived Puerto Madero and Santa Fe street circuits.
47 venues listed across 3 categories. Venues with a full RaceTrackWorld guide are linked.

Track days and driving experiences in Argentina
Argentina's track-day scene is smaller and less commercialised than Europe's, running mainly through car clubs, marque owners' groups and the circuits themselves rather than a single national operator. The Autódromo Oscar y Juan Gálvez and Autódromo Rosendo Hernández both host manufacturer and club open-pitlane days for local sports car and touring car owners, typically priced from around ARS 40,000-150,000 depending on car class and session length, while karting is the more accessible entry point: the Club Argentino de Karting in Buenos Aires and similar clubs at provincial circuits rent karts by the session for a fraction of that cost. Track access for private cars is usually arranged directly with each autódromo's administration rather than through a nationwide booking platform.
Frequently asked questions
Does this list include horse racing tracks?+

What is Argentina's most important race track?+
The Autódromo Oscar y Juan Gálvez in Buenos Aires is the country's flagship venue, with a history stretching back to the 1952 Autódromo de Buenos Aires and a history of hosting the Argentine Grand Prix and Formula E; the Autódromo Internacional Termas de Río Hondo is the country's other international-grade circuit, hosting MotoGP since 2014.
What is Turismo Carretera?+
Turismo Carretera (TC) is Argentina's largest and oldest domestic motor racing series, running production-based touring cars on a rotating calendar that visits most of the circuits on this page over a March-to-November season.
Are there any purpose-built oval or drag racing venues in Argentina?+
No dedicated oval-racing or permanent drag strip venues could be confirmed for Argentina. Some circuits, such as Rafaela and San Nicolás, include high-speed or oval-style configurations, but oval and drag racing are not established disciplines with fixed venues in the country.

Is Rosario home to a permanent race track?+
No permanent international-standard circuit could be confirmed within Rosario itself; drivers based there typically travel to nearby provincial circuits such as Rafaela or San Nicolás de los Arroyos.
