Men's Health MagApril 10, 2015Cars, crowds, and the most-attended sporting event in the world: What’s not to love? Head out to Indy a day early for the IPL 500 Festival Parade, where 300,000 people line the streets. Read more
HISTORYJuly 15, 2010This track has been in existence since 1901. It is known as the first racing facility historically to incorporate the world, as well as the largest and highest-capacity sporting facility.- Maria AlvizMay 10, 2018A must-see site while visiting Indy! If you're visiting during the off-season, make sure you go in the museum or take a tour and learn the history behind "The Greatest Spectacle in Racing."Upvoted 2 weeks ago
The 12 year-old at the track today is the 22 year-old in the infield 10 years from now and the parent of a new race fan years later. The Indy 500 is a memorable experience for each generation!

John (aka “PHATFoodFan”)April 25, 2021Great place to get your @covid19 vaccine (Johnson & Johnson as well as Pfizer)! They were fast and friendly with National Guard staff, don’t even have to get out of your car!
Jason FloodMay 23, 2022A lot of walking. Really enjoyed the experience of watching qualifying with the Scouts I came with. Clean venue. They let you bring food and drinks. Lots of history to see, while being modern too.
Downtown IndyJuly 17, 2014Established in 1909, the Indianapolis Motor Speedway has long prevailed as an icon of motor sports excellence. It is the world's largest spectator sporting facility.
Great seating and food. The suite life is where it's at. Always something for the kids. This place is for the racing lovers.
Look around and take in the history. Also be sure to check out the Museum while you are visiting the track.
JelenaMay 27, 2014Indy 500 is a must-see! Turn 1 seats are great but most are uncovered - so lather on the sunscreen! Bring ear plugs, water & food - you'll be here a while. Pro tip: Hopscotch to avoid all the litter.- AWESOME!! Especially great if you really know the history. Can't wait for the one hundredth running!!!!!
I've been going to the 500 for quite a few years now. Jell-O shots and 40oz are plentiful in my section.
Mike DMay 29, 2017I'll come here sometimes just to be surrounded by 300,000 strangers and eat chicken and watch cars go around in circles - other times I take a nap instead
- General admission infield seating (when available) is cheap and fun! Bring a picnic blanket and sit in the grass on the backstretch for NASCAR and the S turn for Moto GP for great views!
SportsTravel.comMarch 7, 2012Kissing the bricks, drinking milk; the list of traditions at Indy are never ending. Never thought a trip there was possible? Think again! Premiere Spots provides all-inclusive tours to IMS! Read more
Was here for the SCCA National Championship Runoffs w/ over 950 race cars / entrants and the "Yellow Shirts" (IMS staff) never set a foot wrong.
Tess HankinsAugust 28, 2011The Clabber Girl trailer has the best biscuits and gravy along with yummy cookies, coffee, and a strawberry shortcake type thing. So good! And they are owned by Hulman and Co.
Visit IndianaJune 1, 2011The 2.5 mile track is home to the largest (Indy 500) and second largest (The Brickyard) single-day sporting events in the world. The Museum displays former winning cars and is open 364 days a year. Read more
Shawn KreczmerMay 26, 2019This is the racing capital of the world. Way to many things to like here. It's an incredible experience. An absolute bucket list.
Make sure you bring your sunscreen if you are in the infield. It's worth absorbing the extra rays to explore everything the infield has to offer on a race weekend.
Estela Vazquez PerezMay 25, 2014get a VIP on the pit side to get the sun and full action. Awesome views from anywhere.
Meredith BMay 11, 2015Always organized when I go but the ushers don't know much about amenities so better to find it on your own.
Amazing seats for the Indy 500 - or the Brickyard or any race!! Clear view of the pits and the start-finish line!
Joe LaiSeptember 18, 2013Track tour and museum is awesome! Don't bother with the Dallara factory tour. Historic venue that unfortunately had seen better days and could use a "Fenway" like restoration.
Hard RockerApril 6, 2015A definite must visit when in Indianapolis. Do the Grounds Tour. Great museum.
Flora GarrisonMay 25, 2013Don't forget your starting grid t-shirt. It's a great way to remember the race. Get them early, they go fast and they don't make a lot.
Sign your child up for the IMS Kids Club. It's the best! You get so much for only $25 all year. Easter, Indy, 400, RBIGP, Hslloween and Holiday Party's!
Honda PowersportsAugust 25, 2011If you're a motorcycle racing fan, there's nothing more exciting than MotoGP racing at the storied Indianapolis Motor Speedway! Trivia: Bikes raced here (8-14-1909) 5 days before the first auto race!
Hot WheelsMay 26, 2011Start your engines! The Team Hot Wheels Flame Riders app is free in the iTunes App Store this weekend only! Race around hazards & collect points possible on your way to victory. http://bit.ly/mCO3Ay
Eric McCutchanMay 28, 2012Don't expect to actually check in here very easily on race day. All the non-Foursquarers suck up the 3G/4G with data use on their own phones. AT&T needs to install more towers in Speedway.
Jason BibbMay 24, 2013Stop by The AAA Fan Experience for free prizes, a cool game show and Helio Castroneves appearance Saturday @ 10am
Josh WilliamsSeptember 16, 2010The place is really quite on a weekday night in September, but still pretty cool. You can feel the history when you climb the chain link fence entrance.- George HAugust 3, 2011If you're a motorcycle racing fan, there's nothing more exciting than MotoGP racing at the storied Indianapolis Motor Speedway!

ESPNMay 24, 2012Before you watch the new fancy cars race around the track, stop by the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Hall of Fame Museum to see some of the Indy 500’s oldest cars.

Anna SummittJuly 29, 2012No better track. If u can, get seats in Section E in the shade. They r worth the extra money.
Jim CotaFebruary 1, 2012Home of the world famous Indianapolis 500, Brickyard 500 and other racing events. Spend a few hours in the Museum.
