Since its debut in 2012, the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) has traversed various circuits globally, with some tracks becoming permanent fixtures while others have disappeared over time. At its zenith, the WEC featured up to 10 rounds in a season, but the number dwindled to six during the COVID-19 pandemic. In recent years, the schedule stabilized to eight races, with the return of Silverstone in 2027 expected to bring the total back to nine events.
Here are the tracks that have hosted the WEC since its inception: Le Mans (La Sarthe) has been a consistent part of the WEC, appearing in every season since its launch. Spa-Francorchamps is also a permanent fixture, being the only other track outside of Le Mans to have hosted the WEC since its start. Fuji Speedway, Bahrain International Circuit, Sebring International Raceway, Austin-Mapfre Circuit, Silverstone Circuit, Shanghai International Circuit, Imola Circuit, Sao Paulo International Circuit, Monza Circuit, Nurburgring Circuit, Mexico City Street Circuit, Portimão Raceway, Qatar International Circuit, and Barcelona Street Circuit are other tracks that have welcomed the WEC.
The championship's emphasis on endurance racing is evident through its frequent return to Le Mans, while tracks like Fuji, Bahrain, Sebring, Austin, Silverstone, and others have added diversity to the calendar.
