The 2026 SCORE World Desert Championship will be held exclusively on Baja California, marking the 11th consecutive year that Mexico will host all SCORE events, including the legendary SCORE Baja 1000, an off-road race known as "The Grandaddy of All Off-Road Races."

The world’s most important off-road race, the legendary and iconic SCORE Baja 1000, will take place from November 9 to 15, 2026, with the venue to be announced by SCORE International officials. This competition, in the past, has drawn attention from former Indianapolis 500 winners Parnelli Jones, Rick Mears and Alex Rossi, and former Dakar Rally champions Toby Price, Marc Coma, Nasser Al-Attiyah, Cyril Despres and Ricky Brabec.
