What is the Paddock? 

The Paddock is like the locker room by comparison to hockey, football, basketball or baseball. 

It is also known as the GARAGE area in the racing industry. Whenever the cars are not on the race track during an event weekend, they will be found inside the Paddock. Race teams are assigned a space for housing each car and its accompanying equipment, and the impressive, purpose-built transporter trucks that transform into a fully functional temporary garage for race weekend. 

A real hub of buzzing activity, this is where all of the backstage action goes down. Race teams and drivers use this area as their 'office' for the weekend. Team meetings are held to strategize and review performance while mechanics vigorously make precise adjustments to the cars between on-track sessions, looking for every little tweak to improve the cars performance. 

What is a Paddock Pass?

It's rare in the professional sporting world for fans to have 'game day' access to the locker room, athletes and equipment, but the Paddock Pass allows fans to be in the heart of the action amongst drivers, mechanics, officials, team owners and, of course, the 'other' stars of the show - the mighty machines themselves - the very Indy cars that will take to the track at record speeds in the main event.

Fans with a Paddock Pass can gain access and explore the Paddock throughout the event weekend. The best times to visit the NTT INDYCAR SERIES Paddock are following on-track practice or qualifying sessions, when the area will be a buzz of activity. Fans are encouraged to snap an #indyTO selfie, or snag an autograph from a passing IndyCar driver!   

This unprecedented access can be purchased for $75 giving you insider looks all weekend long. Get your Paddock Pass today!  

What are the Pits?

A lot happens in the Pits. It’s where the teams and crews watch and guide their drivers via radio communications during the race. It’s where drivers make "pit stops" to have their tires can be changed and cars refueled, and it’s where teams try to fix any car problems that may happen during the race. The Pits are action packed and exciting!

What can I see with a Pit Pass? 

You’ll get up close and personal with the cars, directly behind the pit boxes. You'll be able to watch the race team crew members at work from executing pit stops to tracking the race on their various monitors (they’re crazy technological). You’ll also be walking on restricted areas of the official race course, with access so 'behind-the-scenes' that these passes are sold in MINIMAL quantities, with MAXIMUM potential for jealousy-inducing Instagram posts!

What can I see with a Paddock Pass?

All Pit Pass purchasers will also receive a Paddock Pass. This pass provides access to the locker room of motorsports - the Paddock - also known as the garage area. Whenever the cars are not on the race track during the weekend, they will be found inside the Paddock.

When can enter the Pits with my Pit Pass?

Our HOT Pit Pass allows access to the Pits during ALL support series on-track racing action and for IndyCar practice, qualifying and Pre-race.  This means that during the Sunday afternoon IndyCar race you will have to clear the pits, for your own safety as the pits get super hectic as the cars come squealing in and out. Don’t worry- you won’t miss out, there is plenty of pit action throughout the three day event you'll have up-close access to!

Other notes:

Pit Pass holders must visit Enercare Centre, Salon 110 to sign a waiver and collect their Pit credential before being granted access to Pit Lane and must be 18 years of age or older.
