The 2018 Rolex 24 of Daytona is the 56th Rolex 24 at Daytona held, on January 27-28, 2018.

The defending race winners are Jeff Gordon, Ricky Taylor, Jordan Taylor and Max Angelelli, for Wayne Taylor Racing. However, Ricky Taylor will not be able to defend his title in 2018 as he will be driving the 2018 WeatherTech SportsCar Championship with Team Penske alongside Hélio Castroneves full-time.

Pee Saderd is the defending BATC Cup champion from the last BATC Cup at the 2017 Wat Lao Festival, but he will not defend his title as he chose to participate in the main 24-hour race instead.
