In addition to the spectacular racing action, the track’s sensational popularity has helped draw even more interest over the years. After all, not many venues can claim that its name is a country music song title – Eric Church’s Talladega – as well as featured in a movie – Talladega Nights.

“NASCAR fans are truly the best sports fans, not only in the United States, but from all across the world,” said Talladega Superspeedway Chairman Grant Lynch. “We have all 50 states and more than 20 countries represented this weekend, proving that our fans are truly passionate about all that we have to offer at Talladega. It is truly accurate when we say, ‘This is more than a race, this is Talladega.’”

More than 70% of Talladega’s loyal fans come to the track’s race weekends from outside the state of Alabama. The enthusiastic racing loyalists that visit twice a year help to generate over $300 million annually for Alabama tourism.

“It’s a known fact that Talladega Superspeedway not only has the best racing action anywhere, but also throws the biggest party,” said Alabama Tourism Director Lee Sentell. “Talladega’s race weekends are attended by fans worldwide. NASCAR fans’ contribution to tourism in Alabama helps us showcase to those coming to Talladega everything that our wonderful state has to offer.”

An Alabama 500 ticket allows fans into the Colt Ford Concert Powered by American Ethanol on Saturday night in the infamous infield. Many upgrades are also still available, including the Pre-Race Pit Pass Upgrade, which allows fans to take a stroll down pit road and experience driver introductions and the driver question/answer session on Sunday morning with Brad Keselowski, Chase Elliott, Kurt Busch, Ty Dillon, Donnie Allison and Len & Eddie Wood. Sunday’s Alabama 500 will mark the final start for six-time Talladega winner Dale Earnhardt Jr.
