Location and Transportation

Venue Address

Elko Speedway

26350 France Ave

Elko New Market, MN 55020

Located approximately 30 miles south of Minneapolis, the speedway offers easy access for Twin Cities race fans looking for a quick trip to a premier motorsports night out.

• Parking: On-site parking available, with ample space for event attendees.
• Public Transit: Limited public transit options available.
• Rideshare & Dropoff: Drop-off and pick-up are possible in the main parking area near the primary entrance.

Arrival Recommendations

Plan to arrive 60–90 minutes before the green flag to find convenient parking and your preferred spot in the general admission grandstands. Early arrival also gives you time to grab food and merchandise before the first heat hits the track.

Elko Speedway is an outdoor venue, and events are weather-dependent. Racing may be postponed or canceled due to rain, so check the forecast and the venue’s announcements on event day. For evening events, light layers can help as temperatures dip after sunset—those scenic sundown views over the oval are a bonus.

Since most fans drive, allow a little time for post-race traffic exiting the lot. With limited public transit options, planning a rideshare pickup in the main parking area can make your departure easier—just coordinate your meeting point before the final laps when cell service can get spotty during larger events.

Venue Navigation

The speedway’s layout centers around the 3/8 mile asphalt oval and a large general admission grandstand area designed for close-up viewing. Seating is straightforward, so you can focus on picking your favorite vantage point—start/finish, turns, or a higher row to follow the full field.

Concessions serve classic raceway fare including burgers, hot dogs, snacks, and beverages, and you’ll find merchandise stands open during events for team gear and souvenirs. Expect moderate walking from the parking lot to the grandstands on generally flat terrain—comfortable footwear is a smart choice so you can enjoy the night without distractions.

Security and Policies

• Bag Policy: Please review the venue’s official guidelines before arriving, as specific bag policies were not provided.

Post-Purchase Tips — Be Ready for Event Day

• Download your tickets before arriving — cell service can be limited.
• Bring a valid ID and cashless payment option.
• Charge your phone fully.
• Review venue policies in advance.
• Arrive early to claim spots near the start/finish line for the best view of restarts and the checkered flag.
• Keep an eye on the forecast—racing is weather-dependent and evening temperatures can dip after sunset.

Pre-Event Planning

Make the most of your race night by arriving a bit early to explore concessions and merchandise stands before engines fire. If you’re meeting friends or family, pick a clear landmark—like a specific grandstand section along the frontstretch—to regroup before the first green flag. With the general admission layout, getting there early helps your group sit together in your preferred vantage point.

Elko Speedway is known for its evening atmosphere and scenic sunset views over the track, so consider timing your arrival to catch golden hour before the main events. If you’re planning a full day, the speedway’s location about 30 miles south of Minneapolis makes it easy to pair race night with nearby attractions like the Minnesota Zoo or Mystic Lake Casino.
