Watkins Glen International introduces special offer to 100th Indianapolis 500 ticketholders

INDYCAR fans fortunate enough to attend the historic 100th running of the Indianapolis 500 this Memorial Day weekend will have the opportunity to take advantage of a special offer put forth by Watkins Glen International.

Any ticketholder for Sunday’s race will be granted special pricing – $40 for General Admission tickets, $200 for (1) trackside or non-trackside camping spot – on the recently announced September 1-4 INDYCAR Grand Prix at The Glen, which marks the series’ first trip to the picturesque Finger Lakes region since 2010.

“We wanted to do something special for the dedicated INDYCAR fans taking in the 100th running this weekend,” said Watkins Glen International President Michael Printup. “We couldn’t be more thrilled to bring this great event back to New York, and hope this offer triggers some Labor Day vacation plans to upstate New York.”

Indianapolis 500 ticketholders looking to buy INDYCAR Grand Prix at The Glen tickets are encouraged to call 866-461-RACE (7223) and mention the Indianapolis 500 ticketholder offer to receive their discount, which is nearly 50% off of general sale pricing.

The 60-lap event, set to be broadcast live on NBC Sports Network and the Advance Auto Parts INDYCAR Radio Network, XM 209 and Sirius 212, will be the 15th stop on the 16-race schedule and will likely play an integral role in the chase for the 2016 Verizon IndyCar Series championship.
