NASCAR is committed to minimizing disruptions and educating residents, businesses, and organizations on what to expect leading into the event. We’ll continue to update the information below, so please check back often.

The following information is from the 2024 Chicago Street Race.

LOCAL INFO

The NASCAR Chicago Street Race hosted a Community Engagement meeting on Thursday, April 4, 2024, to share information about the 2024 Chicago Street Race Weekend.

Representatives from NASCAR, the City of Chicago, the Chicago Park District, and others were present to respond to questions from the community.

The City of Chicago and NASCAR officials have worked closely to develop a traffic plan that outlines street closures, parking restrictions, and pedestrian routes in and around Grant Park. As Chicago gears up to host the second annual NASCAR Chicago Street Race, residents and visitors are encouraged to be mindful of the traffic impacts and, safety measures.

As the course and viewing structures are assembled and disassembled, the City of Chicago and NASCAR officials are working to further minimize the impacts of street closures, parking restrictions, reroutes, and traffic. All businesses and residences will remain accessible during course set up, race weekend, and the break-down.
