NASCAR Tailgating Is More Than A Fun Thing To Do...It's A Way Of Life.
“We host upwards of 15,000 individuals in the campgrounds during Cup weeks,” Charlotte (N.C.) Motor Speedway Camping Manager Kristina Rose says. “Camping is a NASCAR staple.”
Campsites also are in high-demand at Watkins Glen International in Upstate New York.
“Camping is extremely popular at Watkins Glen International,” track spokesperson Chris Banker says. “In each of the last two years, we have created new camping areas due to demand for our NASCAR race weekends. A very large portion of our ticketholders camp on-site for events.”
Camping, or multi-day tailgating, is, without a doubt, a huge tradition in the NASCAR world.
“Darlington (S.C.) Raceway is the most historic track on the NASCAR circuit and has been open since 1950. We’ve had many campers here who camped at the inaugural race and continue to attend, even now, or pass on their camping spot to other family members who keep the tradition alive,” Darlington Raceway spokesperson Dennis Worden says.
Darlington Raceway has celebrated its tradition this past two race seasons with throwback weekends surrounding its historic Southern 500 race on Labor Day weekend. The throwback theme started with race car paint schemes but carried act by donning fashions of yesteryear -- like bell bottoms and platform shoes.
