The Autódromo de Concepción del Uruguay is a 4.279 km (2.659 mi) racing circuit for motorsport competitions, located on the outskirts of the city of Concepción del Uruguay, in the Argentine Province of Entre Ríos. The circuit is one of three in the province, with the two other courses being in Paraná and Concordia, both of which are considered national category racing circuits. The circuit was formerly the longest circuit in the province until the circuit in Concordia was reconfigured, with the new length being 4.700 km (2.920 mi), 0.421 km (0.262 mi) longer than the Autódromo de Concepción del Uruguay in its full layout.

History
The circuit was built in 2014 for the Turismo Carretera and TC Pista competitions, with its additional objectives being bringing regional motorsport competitions together, as well as enticing larger motorsport competitions to host a round in the province. A round has been hosted at the circuit every year since and as of 2019, a round of the Argentinian Rallycross Championship (Campeonato Argentino de Rallycross) has been hosted on a new mixed-surface layout of the circuit.
