A field of 20 cars will tackle the opening round of the Australian series, including some high profile names.
Reigning champion Chaz Mostert will not return, but in his place are a number of star drivers.
Leading the entry list is 2019 champion and Supercars racer Will Brown, who will race an Audi RS3 LMS TCR entered by Melbourne Performance Centre.
Young charger Jay Hanson, meanwhile, has got his hands on the very latest specification Audi RS3 LMS from Audi Sport, meaning he will race the newest car in the field.
