If you are in Charlotte, it is a fun place to visit and good for all age groups. You can buy tickets at the booth or book online, either you it works. Consider family membership option if you are family of two and have 2-3 kids, as the family membership provides more value for money and you get two buddy passes which you can use immediately during the visit if you have more than two adults in your group. Simulation drive is included with the family membership, so value instead of combo tickets. It is a long line sometimes and probably most times to get into simulation. You can easily spend 3-4 hours at the museum, rest rooms are clean and very accessible.
We had an absolutely amazing time here. About $ 80+ for 3 people with 2 of our tickets being discounted military. There are packages you can purchase to include a simulator ride. Very interactive. You get a card to scan at the stations for more information or to activate the kiosks. You can take a picture and get your face and name on the large jumbo screen with your favorite drivers you select underneath your picture welcoming you. There was a simulator qualifier, the real thing and a timed pit crew simulator. Super cool museum to view the history of NASCAR, owner and driver history. Amazing time for all.
We visited early afternoon on a weekday, no waiting to get in and I recommend you pick a ticket package that best suit your needs. You may not want to take part in all the Halls attractions. We did the simulator and photo with lunch credit package. You also get a $10 speed gift shop voucher included. The displaces are beautifully displaced with detailed narration. We enjoyed ourselves.
My boyfriend and I came here for a day date, there was no line or anything- we like to do things that are fun and interactive. This was my first time at the hall of fame and there was more to do than I expected. The tickets are pricey but It would be a great place to bring kids if I had any. But it’s great for just adults too! I definitely recommend doing the racing simulation if you go, they were closing soon and let us do it for free and it was super fun, but typically you have to pay extra for it. We live uptown so we didn’t have to pay for parking but I suggest finding street parking and walking a little bit as opposed to a parking deck.
NASCAR Hall of Fame has many historical cars from the foundation of the company. It has a race car's time line. They show interesting information about combustion engines and racing engineering overall. In the second floor they have fun activities, for example driving simulations and even a station to practice how to provide maintenance to a car during a race. Similar to Pits Side Note: it as an inner bridge connection to the Charlotte's Convention Center. I think that NASCAR Hall of Fame is a must if visiting Charlotte. It was enjoyable, fun and very informative.
My first time visiting I went with some friends visiting from Canada and they were blown away by the whole setting, the courtesy, and especially by the virtual racing simulator. We participated in the pit stop speed competition and my kids enjoyed it a lot. It is a very recommended place for racing lovers.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNoPrice for adult entry$21–30
It's interesting and neat to see the cars. But for 34 dollars and 12 dollars for parking. Unless your a really big fan of racing save yourself some money and skip this. There's a 12 minute movie that was interesting. But the best thing that is offered is the simulation it will have a long wait unless your going to stay all day plan on going on it once. Nascar is a billion dollar sport and this was the best they could do for its hall of fame, sorry but it's a big disappointment.
What a fantastic experience. One of the friendliest environments I have ever been in. From the front desk to the workers on the floor it’s like they were all trained at Chick fil a. Super high level of customer service at the hall of fame. The exhibits were beautiful and the car simulators were awesome. But the most fun had to be the pit lane simulator where you physically have to do a pit stop on a car. Such a great place to visit I highly recommend it to anyone and everyone
We visited the hall of fame for a reception party. It was tons of fun! Everyone was extremely friendly and lively. Made for a really fun evening! The simulator and pit crew challenge was a ton of fun! Meeting Lightning McQueen was pretty cool too!Visited onWeekdayWait time1 hr+Reservation recommendedNot surePrice for adult entryFree
We visited on a Saturday afternoon and ended up spending over 4 hours. We weren't sure what to expect, but were very impressed. There are four floors of exhibits with a lot of interactive experiences. We enjoyed the movie, the qualifying simulator, and the racing simulator. The only thing we didn't try our hand at was the pit challenge. We had lunch at the cafe and both enjoyed the pulled pork sandwiches with Sweet Baby Ray's bbq sauce. They were really good and at a great price for the combo! They had so much to see, especially on the fourth floor, it was almost overwhelming! We would definitely go back and feel it was very much worth the price of admission. Great job NASCAR!
