The 2027 GT World Challenge Powered by AWS is a planned motor racing championship for GT3 cars, marking the 14th edition of the GT World Challenge Europe. Organised by the SRO Motorsports Group, it will form the European part of the broader GT World Challenge, which will also include GT World Challenge America, GT World Challenge Australia and GT World Challenge Asia.
The championship will be split into the Endurance Cup and the Sprint Cup, each with its respective titles, alongside the overall GT World Challenge Europe championship. The season is set to take place over ten rounds at various European circuits. The annual season prologue, which serves as the championship's pre-season testing, along with testing for the 24 Hours of Spa, will have its dates confirmed later. Racing is set to commence in April and conclude in October.
Calendar All Sprint Cup rounds consist of two one-hour races, totalling 15 races throughout the season, alongside the single 3-hour (Imola, Nürburgring and Barcelona), 6-hour (Paul Ricard), or 24-hour (Spa) races in Endurance Cup rounds.

Calendar changes The 2027 calendar for the GT World Challenge features two significant venue changes compared to 2026. Firstly, Imola will return in place of Monza, which is undergoing renovation. Later in the year, round nine will be hosted by the Hungaroring, meaning that Portimão will be dropped after its return the previous year. Beyond these changes, the calendar remains largely unchanged, except that Barcelona hosts an Endurance Cup rather than a Sprint Cup round, as was the case in 2026. See also
