The Indy 500 is taking over the Indianapolis Motor Speedway this Memorial Day weekend. Festivities are planned for the days leading up to Sunday’s race, which is set to start at 12:45 p.m. ET. This year marks the 107th running of the race, as one of the most significant events in motor sports.

Fans will descend upon Indianapolis for the tradition-rich event, and for those still looking to be among the estimated 300,000 attendees, entry to the race won’t necessarily break the bank. Using insights from SI Tickets, we have compiled a list of tickets available at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

General Admission

Ticket Price: $67

IndyCar fans can be a part of the greatest spectacle in racing for under $70, with a general admission ticket. This seat may not secure spectators the best vantage point of the 33-car field, but at one of the most action-packed sporting events, there are plenty of activities to enjoy and partake in outside of the race itself.

Snake Pit

Ticket Price: $80

The Indy 500’s Snake Pit is one of the race’s long-standing customs, known as a raucous spot on the infield to imbibe with fellow racegoers. After many iterations and eras, the Snake Pit has most recently evolved into a concert, which takes place before, during and after the race. This year, American DJ Kaskade will headline the event. For those looking to partake in the concert, general admission and Snake Pit tickets are sold separately.

Vistas

Ticket Price: $101

Vistas positioned around the oval offer an elevated view of the race for those looking for a clearer picture of the Indy 500. Sunday’s race is shaping up to be a thrilling contest, with Pato O'Ward and Alex Palou leading the odds heading into the weekend.

Paddock Press Penthouse

Ticket Price: $530

The uppermost level of the stand, the paddock penthouse boasts some of the best views of the pits and straightaway. Featuring an overhang, this seating area is shaded from the elements and has one of the best vantage points at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
