TRAVELING BY CAR

Driving into Coronado for the NASCAR race is an exciting way to kick off your race weekend adventure. As NASCAR’s only street race, the event transforms the site into a thrilling motorsport arena, bringing fans right into the action. However, because the circuit winds through the city’s core streets, traffic restrictions and road closures are expected — making planning essential for a smooth and stress-free arrival.

If you’re driving to the event, be sure to check updated traffic advisories and closure maps released in the days leading up to the race. These will detail which streets are affected by the track layout and where detours are in place.

Parking around the circuit will be limited, but several parking lots within walking distance will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. Those staying outside the city may find it convenient to park at one of the suburban park-and-ride lots and continue by public transportation or shuttle service to avoid congestion downtown. Dedicated rideshare and taxi drop-off zones will also be established near major entry points for a quick and efficient arrival.
