Arrive by 9 AM if you can. Parking fills up fast and you don’t wanna miss any of the action because you're stuck looking for a spot.

If you can, grab a bleacher seat in the turn 1 area. The view was incredible and the energy there is unreal. Way better than being stuck near the start!

My advice is to bring your own snacks and drinks. The onsite concession is limited and prices can be kinda high. I ended up spending more than I planned because I was hungry!

I recommend checking out the trail map before hitting the roads. Some trails can be tricky and I got lost for a bit! It took a while to find my way back which wasted precious ride time

Grab your snacks and drinks before you enter! The concessions inside are a bit pricey, and I found decent places nearby. Saves you some cash!

Use the bathroom before the game starts or during halftime. The lines can get really long, and I almost missed part of the second quarter waiting!

If you're looking for souvenirs, wait until the end of the game to shop. You'll beat the rush and perhaps find some clearance merchandise. I found a cool shirt half off!

Check for any promotions or discounts online before you go. I found a coupon that helped me save some money, and it definitely made my day even better!

Thomas December 3, 2024

Don’t forget to wear snug-fitting shoes. I wore loose sneakers, and they kept slipping off my feet in the kart. Also, leave the heavy jackets behind; it gets warm inside!

If you want to avoid the crowds, try visiting on a weekday afternoon. I went on a Wednesday around 3 PM, and it was the perfect time to race without a long wait

I suggest buying the multi-race package! It's a much better deal than just going for one race if you're really into it, and it gives you time to improve your lap time.

My advice is to check the schedule ahead of time. Not every game is a big deal, so if you're planning for a less crowded day, it might be better to catch a weekday game!

If you're looking to save some cash, bring your own snacks. The concession prices can be a bit steep, and I wish I had thought of it before!

I suggest taking a guided tour if you can. It's super informative and gives you a behind-the-scenes look at the history - definitely worth the extra time

Thomas December 10, 2024

My advice is to arrive around 30 minutes early to find the best parking spot. The crowds can get crazy, and you don't want to miss any of the pre-game atmosphere!

Check out the Hinkle Fieldhouse merchandise shop! They have some unique stuff. I grabbed a T-shirt and a mug, which made great souvenirs without breaking the bank.

My advice is to bring your own arrows if you can. The rentals were okay, but having my own made a big difference for my accuracy and confidence.

I suggest booking your lane in advance, especially on weekends. I didn't and had to wait longer than I liked. Save yourself the hassle!

Jack November 20, 2024

I think checking out their specials on weekdays is a good idea! I visited on a Thursday, and the rates were way better than the weekend prices

I recommend bringing your own snacks and drinks. Drinks inside can be pricey and it was a bummer for me when I saw the prices. Just pack a small cooler with goodies and you’re ready to go.

I suggest arriving around 3 PM to avoid the traffic jams and find decent parking. Trust me, you'll save time and get better spots. The earlier you show up, the less stress you'll have!
