History

From 1995 until 2009 the Grand Prix of Poland was only held once every year, primarily at the Polonia Stadium. However, with the boom of popularity of speedway in Poland and the investment in stadia in the country it was decided in 2010 that two events would be included in the world championship series. The two events were usually held at the Edward Jancarz Stadium and the MotoArena Toruń.

In 2015, the number of Polish Grand Prix rounds in the world championship increased to three, based largely on the fact that the sport's popularity in Poland was still at peak and most of the world's best riders were based in Poland. Not including the COVID-19 pandemic affected years, the world championship contained four events in Poland during 2022 and 2024.
