About Chicago Street Course
Welcome to the Chicago Street Course, a temporary street-rircuit venue set in downtown Chicago's Grant Park. The start/finish line runs along South Columbus Drive in front of Buckingham Fountain, offering a unique urban racing experience on a 2.2-mile course with 12 turns. Since 2023, NASCAR Cup Series races (Grant Park 165) and NASCAR Xfinity Series events (The Loop 110) have brought festival-style racing weekends to Chicago, often paired with on-site concerts and vibrant race-weekend programming. We’ve got you covered with seating options, parking guidance, transit tips, and nearby hotel and dining recommendations to help you secure your seats and plan a smooth trip.
For a stress-free weekend, consider our affiliate hotel and restaurant partners for convenient stays and dining near the action. Our team can help you find the right seats—from Ground Pass (GA) to reserved Frontstretch Premier, Turn/Bench Reserved (e.g., Turn 12 Reserved)—so you can focus on the thrill of high-speed racing and festival experiences. Remember: downtown parking is limited; consider Millennium Garages and nearby structures, and ridesharing or CTA access for the easiest routes to Grant Park.
