The 2024 Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie is the 47th season of the German endurance series (formerly VLN) run at the Nürburgring Nordschleife, and fifth run as the Nürburgring Langstrecken Serie (NLS). The season will begin on 6 April and end on 16 November.
Calendar Due to legal dispute with the track owners over race dates, the 2024 season only contains 5 weekends compared to last season's 7 weekends. Additionally, the qualifier races for the 2024 24 Hours of Nürburgring will count for this season's championship. Race Length Circuit Date 1 NLS1 64.
