PARKING

Getting to the NASCAR Chicago Street Race is part of the excitement, and with the event taking place in and around Grant Park, you’ll be right in the middle of downtown Chicago. Whether you’re driving or taking public transit, there are several ways to make your trip to the race smooth and convenient.

While there is no official event parking, fans can use several public and private parking garages nearby, including the centrally located Millennium Garages. These facilities offer accessible parking spaces for vehicles displaying a valid placard or license plate. Parking rates vary by location and can increase during race weekend, so booking in advance is a smart move if possible. For more information and booking, click here. 

For many attendees, public transportation is the easiest and most efficient way to get to the race. The Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) operates an extensive network of buses and trains, with multiple stops within walking distance of Grant Park. Taking the L trains or CTA buses can save you time and help avoid the hassle of downtown traffic and parking. For more information and booking, click here.

Important

Due to the street race setup, there will be major road closures and traffic restrictions throughout downtown in the days leading up to and during the event. These closures may also affect bike paths and pedestrian routes. Be sure to check official traffic updates and maps before heading out. If you’re using a rideshare or taxi, plan your pick-up and drop-off points carefully to avoid restricted areas.
