To order tickets from the Indianapolis Motor Speedway:
* Order on-line at www.indianapolismotorspeedway.com or
* Call 800-822-INDY or 317-492-6700 between 8 a.m.-5 p.m. (ET) Monday through Friday or
* Visit the IMS Ticket Office at the IMS Administration Building at the corner of Georgetown
Road and 16th Street between 8 a.m.-5 p.m. (ET) Monday through Friday.
Tickets for groups of 20 or more also are available.
Contact the IMS Group Sales Department at (866) 221-8775 for more information.
If you decide at the last moment to attend the race, do not let a lack of a
ticket prevent your from coming. There are always tickets available at the ticket
office. There are also many scalpers all along the outside of the track whom
you can purchase tickets from.
Not only can people renew their tickets, they can pass them down to their children.
Consequently, many popular seats are never available from the Speedway.
For instance in 2025, the following areas were sold out before tickets went on sale:
All Decks, All Penthouses, Stand E and Stand B.
Also, in order to reward long-time customers, popular seats are NOT available to
new customers. For instance, only people who have bought tickets for the past
25 years are allowed to apply for tickets in the Penthouse or Deck.
Below is a map that shows what seats are available to you depending upon how
many years in a row you have purchased tickets.






You can expect seats to be priced according to how good they are.
For instance:
* Seats in the corners are more expensive than seats along the straights.
* Seats that sit higher than others may be more expensive.
* Seats that are under cover may be more expensive.
* Bleachers that have backrests may be more expensive.
* Seats on the outside of the track may be more expensive than those on the inside.
Children must have their own seat ticket on race day if sitting in the stands.
The sooner you buy your tickets or passes or parking from the Speedway,
the more money you will save. The prices go up as the day of the event
gets nearer, but usually not by much.
A $9 Handling Fee is applied to each order if they mail the tickets to you.
You can arrange to pick your tickets up at the ticket office.
You can also purchase a $10 ticket to the Driver's Meeting which is held the day
before the race.
You can also buy electronic tickets instead of cardboard tickets. You can
then use your smart phone at the gate to enter.
If you wish to renew your tickets for next year, don't procrastinate. A few
months after the race, if you haven't paid to renew your tickets, the speedway
may sell them to someone else!

reserved seats.
GA allows you to sit anywhere that is open, except on Race Days.
On race days, you must have a Reserved Ticket to sit in the grandstands.
You can buy GA in advance from IMS and save a little money, or purchase it at the gate when
you enter the speedway.
GA can always sit on the grassy viewing mounds which are scattered around both the oval and
road course tracks. You can bring blankets or lawn chairs for use on the hills.
