Join the 500 Festival as we celebrate the month of May in Indy! It might be the sight of 35,000 runners streaming through the city streets on the first Saturday in May or seeing bands, celebrities, spectacular floats or a favorite driver the day before the race. It might be the spine-tingling sensation of 33 race cars, lined up in 11 rows of three, roaring down the front stretch at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway to take the start at the hallowed “Yard of Bricks.” It might be the winner drinking the coveted bottle of milk while posing with the Borg-Warner Trophy. Whatever part of the magical month captures fans’ imagination, everything in May in Indianapolis centers around the Greatest Spectacle in Racing!
