Evening of Speed Drive & VIP Reception

The Drivers Reception returns to the Schenley Park Visitor’s Center for the first time since 2021, and there’s no better place to start your weekend. Located beside the Panther Hollow Bridge and directly along the course, this is your chance to step out of the paddock and into the spotlight, surrounded by fellow racers, crews, and fans who appreciate what you bring to the streets of Schenley Park.
From 6:30 PM to 8:00 PM, the track in front of the Visitor’s Center becomes a gathering point for the entire racing community. Cars on display, stories shared, and a relaxed atmosphere that lets you connect with other drivers before the competition begins.
At 6:15 PM, racers will parade from the paddock around the circuit to the reception, arriving at 6:30. They will park their race cars trackside in front of the Visitor’s Center for all to see, with the option to arrive in a support vehicle instead.
