When you first arrive on Bristol Dragway property,

Bristol Dragway.
Shuttle service will run from the Grandstand Suite
parking area to the Grandstand suite tower for all
grandstand suite guests.
Other Pertinent Information
Suite Access A suite ticket holder may enter
through any gate at Bristol Dragway. After gaining
admittance, suite guests should proceed to the Suite
Registration booth nearest their suite. Suite
Registration will stub the suite ticket and issue a
suite wristband. A suite wristband must be worn at
all times and must be accompanied by a suite ticket.
An adult must accompany minors at all times on
suite level. Everyone, including infants and children,
must have a suite ticket to access suite level.
Cabinet & Padlock Keys Please make sure you
have the cabinet keys for your suite cabinet before
race weekend. If you have lost your keys, please
contact your account representative and we will have
one made for you. There will be a $15 replacement
fee for lost keys. Suite holders are responsible for
locking their own cabinets and securing items at the
conclusion of each event day.
Other Pertinent Information
Suite Dress Code No tank tops, halter-tops,
swimsuits or athletic shorts are allowed. Shirts and
shoes must be worn at all times. This policy will be
enforced by suite security.
Food and Beverage Tower suites must order their
food and beverages through Levy Restaurants. Suite
menus will be mailed to you.
Food and beverages are included in the cost of the
grandstand suites so no ordering is necessary unless
you wish to order additional food and/or beverages to
be delivered directly to your suite. All grandstand
suites will have an A La Carte menu sent to them for
this purpose.
No coolers, outside food or beverages may be brought
to Suite Level.
Will Call Suite holders distribute tickets and/or
parking passes to their guests. Please contact your
account representative if you need special assistance
with Will Call. Guests picking up tickets at Will Call
must show photo identification and sign for the
credentials. Note: Bristol Dragway cannot accept
responsibility/liability for lost or stolen tickets held on
BD property.
We are happy to assist you…
