Indy 500 Tickets Information

The Indy 500 is held every year over Memorial Day Weekend and is an American tradition. The 500-mile race, nicknamed the “Greatest Spectacle in Racing”, is held at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. The Indianapolis 500 is one of the oldest races in the world and has some of the richest history and traditions. The first 500-mile race that was held at Indianapolis Motor Speedway took place on May 30, 1911 - back when the rear view mirror was a new invention. Approximately 80,000 spectators showed up to watch Ralph Mulford take the checkered flag in his Marmon Wasp. Between 1912 and 1919, European motorists claimed the top prize in the event, before American drivers returned to dominance after World War I. The Indy 500 race has had many different names, including the International 500-Mile Sweepstakes Race, the Liberty Sweepstakes, or simply "The 500". The Indy 500 name, however, has stuck for the length of its history. It is considered part of the Triple Crown of motorsports, along with the Monaco Grand Prix and the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Take a look at our Indy 500 Winners page for a full list of all previous winners going back to 1911.

Traditions at the Indy 500 are plentiful, from the call "Gentleman, start your engines..." to the release of balloons during the singing of "Back Home Again in Indiana" and the drinking of a bottle of milk by the race winner. In 1933, driver Louis Meyer asked for a glass of buttermilk after winning his second Indy 500 race, setting off a tradition that continues to this day.
