Bojangles Coliseum

Thanks to our friends at Williams Subaru of Charlotte and Williams Buick GMC, if you drive a Buick, GMC or Subaru to the expo, you have access to park in the VIP Lot!

Are you a Truist cardholder? Don't forget about all of the perks you've got this weekend! You'll get early access to the expo on Saturday starting at 9AM to get a first look at the merch. Be sure to bring that purple card to get a discount at checkout as well. After the race, swing into the Truist recovery lounge inside of Truist Field to take in what you just did out on the highway!

Plan your race weekend transportation!

We’re excited to partner with Area Transit System (CATS) this year who’s offering free bus and light rail using your bib as the pass! Be sure to download their app to get you to the start line as sustainably as possible! If that’s not an option for you, you can also jog, bike or carpool to the start line to be as sustainable as possible.

If you do happen to bike, Thule will be helping this year with bike valet at the main entrance to Truist Field. Next, there is free and paid street parking in uptown near the start line, but it will fill up fast. Lastly, there are many paid parking decks downtown. Be sure to arrive by 6:40am to prep, and get to your corral!
