Indianapolis Motor Speedway is hitting the road again in 2025 to bring the excitement of the Indianapolis 500 presented by Gainbridge to fans with free IMS Fan Fests throughout the state, including locations in Evansville, Fort Wayne, Bloomington and Indianapolis.

While each IMS Fan Fest will offer a unique experience, fans can expect attractions like an NTT INDYCAR SERIES race car on display, driver and special guest appearances, and a variety of other activations and giveaways. IMS is working with partners Molson Coors, Red Bull, Bottleworks, Electric Works and others to bring these exciting events to fans.

“IMS Fan Fests were added to the countdown calendar in 2024, and the response from fans was truly phenomenal,” IMS and NTT INDYCAR SERIES President J. Douglas Boles said. “Fans of the Indianapolis 500 are some of the most passionate in the world, and the Fan Fests give us an opportunity to celebrate the excitement of May before we all come together for Race Day, and I can’t wait to get to these events and share the excitement of the countdown to May with our fans.”
