The 2026 Brazilian motorcycle Grand Prix (officially known as the Estrella Galicia 0,0 Grand Prix of Brazil) was the second round of the 2026 Grand Prix motorcycle racing season. All races were held at the Autódromo Internacional Ayrton Senna in Goiânia on 22 March 2026.

This event marked the return of the Brazilian Grand Prix to the MotoGP calendar for the first time since 1992, and the first time any race has been held in Brazilian soil since the 2004 Rio de Janeiro Grand Prix.

Background

The circuit in Goiânia underwent renovations to meet FIM safety standards for the 2026 season. It replaces the previous attempts to host the race in Rio de Janeiro or Brasília.
