The Armoy Road Races in July has become the latest meeting to be called off because of the coronavirus pandemic.
The North West 200 and Isle of Man TT are among a long list of events to be postponed or cancelled as a result of the restrictions in place.
Armoy organisers said they took the decision due to "the extension to the 'stay at home' restrictions and advice from the sport's governing body".
"We believe cancelling our event until 2021 is in the best interest of all."
They added: "Throughout the course of the last few weeks, we had continued to plan for our race in the event that restrictions could be lifted or relaxed.
"We apologise for any disruption this cancellation may cause to those of you who have made travel plans to come to Armoy but we do hope to see you all again in the near future."
Michael Dunlop won both Superbike races at the Armoy last year, just 16 days after breaking his pelvis at the Southern 100.
The Tandragee 100, scheduled for 2 May, has also been postponed while organisers of the Cookstown 100 hope to hold the meeting in September after this month's scheduled event was called off.
