Plan Ahead
Indianapolis 500 presented by Gainbridge
Cashless Facility - Be Prepared
The Indianapolis Motor Speedway is a cashless facility. Please be prepared to complete your ticket, credentials, parking, concession and merchandise purchases with ease during your event via debit or credit card.
Avoid the Lines, Get Here Early!
Security screening detection devices are present at all pedestrian gates. While the additional screening is a simple process, fans are encouraged to arrive as early as possible to allow time to park and patiently make their way in through the gates.
Know What to Bring
Tenderloins and Track Dogs are a must, but if you want to change up your trackside meal, bring your own snacks and refreshments in a cooler! Get up to speed now with all cooler and gate regulations before you pack for your day at the track.
