The Olympic Park Speedway is a motorcycle speedway located alongside the Murray River, at Olympic Park, Mildura, Victoria, Australia.[1][2] The track is operated by the Mildura Motorcycle Club and hosts rounds of the Australian Solo Championship, the Victorian Solo Championship, the Australian Sidecar Championship and the Victorian Sidecar Championship.[3][4][2] The speedway track has a circumference of 302 metres and a junior track with a circumference of 112 metres.[5]

The 2023 edition of the Australian Championships was cancelled due to the surrounding area being flooded when the Murray River broke its banks.[6]
