Introducing the 2026 24 Hours of Le Mans

A movie-style poster and an expectant audience

Every year, the new 24 Hours of Le Mans poster marks the beginning of another chapter in the history of the great endurance race. The 2026 artwork plays on the heroic aspect of the sporting endeavour, embodied by the figure of the driver.

Inspired by the design of a cult movie visual, the poster depicts the tension, the beauty and the intensity of the one-of-a-kind race.

A classic film poster

Drawing on the aesthetics of classic film promotional materials, the 2026 poster portrays the driver in the lead role – alone, in a moment of stillness before the commotion. The stance spells mastery, concentration and solitude – the solitude of being alone at the wheel.

In a visual representation of the phases of the round-the-clock race, this year’s 24 Hours of Le Mans poster comes in three versions: day, sunset and night. Contrasting light, expert composition and shifting atmospheres translate the tension, the beauty and the emotion that make the 24 Hours of Le Mans such an exceptional event.

Pierre Fillon, President of the Automobile Club de l'Ouest : “The 24 Hours of Le Mans poster is part of our shared heritage.
Every year, it portrays an aspect of the race, encapsulating the magnitude of passion, prowess and pride. This year’s movie-style poster recalls our storied past while celebrating the modernity of our discipline."
