Traveling by car

Just a short drive north of the Las Vegas Strip, Las Vegas Motor Speedway stands out in the desert as one of NASCAR’s most iconic stops. With the city’s endless entertainment on offer, a race weekend here often turns into a full Las Vegas getaway.

Due to the sheer number of visitors on race weekends, fans are strongly encouraged to arrive early. If you have a parking pass, carefully check the instructions printed on the back, as access routes may differ from standard directions. On-site police officers and parking attendants will guide traffic as lots open and fill.
