The islands of Lombok and Bali have been designated as national tourism gateways in the MP3EI (Master Plan for the Acceleration and Expansion of Indonesian Economic Development) Corridor V. The nomination of Mandalika area as a Special Economic Zone (SEZ) has an impact on accelerating the development of the Mandalika area and its surroundings. One of the development is the construction of the Mandalika Circuit which is used as a venue for the International World Superbike (WSBK) event. The existence of WSBK has a positive impact on tourism development, on the island of Lombok in particular and West Nusa Tenggara in general. This study aims at scrutinizing the tourism policies in West Nusa Tenggara related to the event of the Mandalika International World SuperBike (WSBK) and investigating the impact of the WSBK event in increasing the visit of both domestic and foreign tourists to West Nusa Tenggara. This study was conducted using a qualitative descriptive approach to provide an overview of what was studied. The method used in this study was qualitative research with sociological and statutory approaches. The results of this study are the birth of several regional government policies in order to support the implementation of the World Superbike (WSBK) event which has increased the number of tourists visiting West Nusa Tenggara.
