The Indianapolis Motor Speedway, also known as the “Racing Capital of the World”, is one of the world's most iconic single-day sporting event venues. The Indianapolis 500 is the track's flagship event, featuring 33 cars and 200 laps. The family-friendly INDYCAR Grand Prix treats you to driver autograph sessions, while the Brickyard Vintage Racing Invitational brings together some of North America's most beautiful retro race cars.
Grounds Tours run for 90 minutes and unlock a behind-the-scenes glimpse of the historic speedway. You'll get a chance to tour the oval track, stand on the victory platform, check out the garage and visit the media centre. You can also stand on the iconic "Yard of Bricks" finishing line.
On the ground floor of the main building, the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Hall of Fame Museum showcases racing artefacts, including trophies and flags. Don't miss the high-octane exhibit dedicated to the Indianapolis 500.
