ENTERING THE SPEEDWAY

Whether you’re heading to Kansas Speedway for the first time or returning for another race weekend, a little planning can make a big difference. From entry procedures to parking and security, here’s what to keep in mind before attending the AdventHealth 400.

Security and bag checks

All bags are subject to inspection at the gates. It’s recommended to review the official list of permitted and prohibited items in advance, covering everything from food and drinks to fan equipment. Items that do not meet the guidelines may be confiscated, and in more serious cases, could lead to removal from the venue. For full bag policy details, click here.

Tickets and access

Entry requires a valid ticket. Purchasing online is the most convenient and secure option, especially as popular categories such as reserved grandstand seating can sell out quickly. Always check your ticket for specific access details.

Parking information

Large crowds are expected, particularly for major Cup Series events, so parking areas can fill up early. General parking is available free of charge, though it may involve a longer walk to the gates. Premium parking options are available closer to the entrance for an additional fee. Off-site parking is limited, so follow local signage carefully to avoid penalties. Rideshare services like Uber or Lyft can also be a practical alternative if you’re staying nearby. For more details, click here.

Parking opening times

Parking lots for the AdventHealth 400 usually open several hours before the race, often by mid-morning. Arriving early helps you avoid heavy traffic, pass through security more efficiently, and enjoy the full pre-race atmosphere.
