The 2025 ARCA Menards Series will be the 73rd season of the ARCA Menards Series, a stock car racing series sanctioned by NASCAR in the United States. The season will begin at Daytona International Speedway with the Hard Rock Bet 200 on February 15 and will end with the Owens Corning 200 at Toledo Speedway on October 4.
