Speedway Christmas, presented by Atrium Health, is the Southeast’s largest drive-thru holiday light show. It features more than 5 million lights on a four-mile course circling the iconic oval, pit road and infield road course. This event is great for sensory seekers, as the beautiful holiday lights can be viewed from the safety of the car. The show is open 6pm-10 p.m., rain or shine, and features synchronized lights-to-music on 101.3 FM, plus drive-in movies on the gigantic Speedway TV.
Traffic Tip: Friday and Saturday nights in December are traditionally the busiest nights and guests may experience extended wait times for entry. Consider Sunday-Thursday nights for quicker entry and arrive early.
Access to the festive Christmas Village in the infield is FREE with your ticket!
The Village is open Nov. 21-23; Nov. 27- 30; Dec. 4-7; Dec. 11-14; Dec. 18-23 and Dec. 25-28, but is closed on Christmas Eve.
