Residents and businesses will air their grievances about Supercars at a community meeting on April 3.
The public forum was organised by the Newcastle East Residents Group and independent business group Makers x Traders of Newcastle.
It invites Newcastle councillors and MPs to "hear Newcastle residents and businesses speak of the impacts on community health, the environment and local economy caused by Supercars Newcastle 500 events".
The meeting is aimed at addressing decision makers before they make a decision about whether the event should continue in the city.
This year's Supercars race was the final in a five-year deal between City of Newcastle, Supercars Australia and Destination NSW.
The meeting will take place at Newcastle City Hall's Banquet Room and begins at 6.30pm. It is open to the public.
