After the successful introduction of a 3-hour race on the full 13.6km Circuit des 24 Heures in 2026, the 2027 Road To Le Mans, which is the highlight of the season, will follow the same format. Round 3 of the MLMC will be held on Friday 11th June, one day before the 95th edition of the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

As a key stepping stone for emerging endurance racing drivers and teams, the series continues to reinforce its vital role on the endurance ladder.

&ldquo;The return of Road to Le Mans in the same format as 2026, including a three-hour race on Friday, will further enhance the level of competition.

Fr&eacute;d&eacute;ric Lequien, Le Mans Endurance Management (LMEM) CEO: &ldquo;For the third year in a row we have selected the same six venues to host the Michelin Le Mans Cup, which provides teams and drivers stability and consistency.&nbsp;

The ACO is proud to continue building the success of the ELMS, which continues to inspire and engage an expanding community of endurance racing fans.&quot;

Fr&eacute;d&eacute;ric Lequien, Le Mans Endurance Management (LMEM) CEO:&nbsp;&ldquo;There is an old that if something isn&rsquo;t broken, don&rsquo;t try to fix it and with that in mind the 2027 ELMS calendar is all about providing the teams and our partners with a stable platform.

&ldquo;Since 2013 the European Le Mans Series has grown year on year, with six 4-hour races on six of Europe&rsquo;s leading circuits.

Six-Race Calendar and Early Start for Exciting 2027 ELMS Season

The Mazda 787B will be one of the stars of Le Mans Classic Legend (2-5 July 2026). The Group C prototype – a 24 Hours of Le Mans icon – will be back at the circuit in a demonstration capacity. Don’t miss the chance to see, and hear, one of the most emblematic cars in the history of endurance racing.

Some race cars are born to become legends. <a href="https://www.24h-lemans.com/en/news/the-30th-anniversary-of-the-mazda-787bs-triumph-at-the-24-hours-of-le-mans-55222">The Mazda 787B</a> definitely falls into that category.

In 1991, the car earned Mazda a historic 24 Hours of Le Mans victory. The manufacturer became the first Japanese marque to win the world&rsquo;s greatest endurance race, long before Toyota&rsquo;s success in La Sarthe.

Developed by Mazdaspeed, the 787B boasts outstanding technology: a four-disc rotary engine with an output of almost 700 hp. Once again, the 24 Hours of Le Mans served as a test ground, enabling Mazda to push its mechanical architecture to the limit.

Thirty years on, the Mazda 787B is still a favourite, not least thanks its distinctive &ldquo;voice&rdquo;. The scream of the high-pitched rotary engine is a signature sound immediately recognisable to endurance racing fans.

<h2>Three track demonstrations</h2>

Le Mans Classic Legend spectators will have three opportunities to admire the Mazda 787B in action.

10-minute demonstrations are scheduled on:

<ul>
	<li>Friday 3 July at 2 p.m.</li>
	<li>Saturday 4 July at 6.05 p.m.</li>
	<li>Sunday 5 July at 1.39 p.m.</li>
</ul>

Spectators will be treated to an arresting parade from one of the most emblematic cars in the history of the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

Le Mans Classic Legend: when to admire the Mazda 787B

Le Mans Classic Legend (2–5 July 2026) transforms the 24 Hours of Le Mans circuit into a world where heritage, music, cinema, the French art of living and the automobile come together.

<h2>The Artcurial Motorcars Auction</h2>

Competition cars, rare models, iconic classics and unexpected discoveries make up a catalogue designed for every enthusiast. Beyond the bidding itself, the auction is a journey through the decades, where every automobile tells its own story through its owners, achievements and legacy.

<h2>The Republican Guard Band: Elegance Before the Roar of the Engines</h2>

Before the racing begins, tradition takes centre stage. The Band of the French Republican Guard officially opens Le Mans Classic Legend with the ceremonial splendour that accompanies great occasions. Brass instruments echo around the circuit, inviting visitors into a timeless moment where national heritage and automotive heritage become one.

<h2>The Arcade Zone: Relive the Thrill of Another Era</h2>

Long before ultra-realistic gaming consoles, there were arcade machines.

Located in Village 1 opposite the Courbe restaurant, the Arcade Zone takes visitors back to the golden age of video games. Pinball machines, CRT screens and iconic arcade classics awaken memories that can be just as powerful as those of a first motor race.

It&#39;s an experience where younger visitors discover a world already familiar to their parents and grandparents.

<h2>A Funfair for the Whole Family</h2>

Le Mans Classic Legend is also a celebration for everyone. Located close to the concert stage, the funfair offers a light-hearted break between automotive discoveries. Rides, fairground games and a timeless atmosphere remind visitors that great events are enjoyed just as much with family as with fellow enthusiasts.

After all, the best memories are often the ones we create together.

<h2>Legendary Cars from the Silver Screen</h2>

Some cars have become immortal without ever winning a race.

This exhibition brings together some of the most famous automobiles from cinema and television. The Back to the Future DeLorean, Eleanor from Gone in 60 Seconds, the stars of Taxi, Fast &amp; Furious and The A-Team all illustrate the unique place the automobile holds in our collective imagination.

These are cars that tell the story not only of popular culture, but also of the history of cinema itself.

<h2>Le Mans Classic Legend: An Experience to Remember</h2>

Le Mans Classic Legend is an event where the automobile transcends its primary purpose to become memory, heritage and emotion. Every exhibition, concert, film screening and encounter contributes to telling a shared story&mdash;a passion that spans generations.

For four unforgettable days, the 24 Hours of Le Mans circuit becomes far more than a race track. It becomes a world where visitors come not only to admire extraordinary cars, but to enjoy a truly cultural and human experience. An invitation to slow down, reflect, share&hellip; and together write the next chapter in this remarkable story.
