NHMS in Loudon is offering family ticket deals for 2017
In conjunction with a NASCAR industry-wide effort to offer free NASCAR Camping World Truck Series and XFINITY Series tickets for children 12 and under next season, New Hampshire Motor Speedway announced a Fans First initiative to price select children’s tickets at just $10 each for the Cup Series events in 2017 on July 16 and Sept. 24.
This announcement came on Monday from Speedway Motorsports, Inc. as a company-wide initiative at its eight premier speedways across the country, including New Hampshire Motor Speedway, beginning in 2017.
“Coming to the races should be about fun, not finances,” said Speedway Motorsports’ President and Chief Executive Officer Marcus Smith. “Now a parent can get his or her child through the gates for an entire weekend of NASCAR events – including pole night, a Camping World Truck or XFINITY Series race and a Cup Series race – for just $10. This is one of the best, if not THE best, family values in all professional sports.
“NASCAR fans have passed down their passion for motorsports from generation to generation for decades, and through this new Fans First initiative, we’ll continue that legacy by introducing young fans to the sport and engaging them for years to come.”
With an adult ticket purchase, fans can buy up to two $10 tickets for children ages 12 and under to that same event in select seating sections.
“Family and tradition is at the hallmark of what we do here, and we take a lot of pride in ensuring that our youngest fans continue to have those same opportunities,” said David McGrath, executive vice president and general manager of New Hampshire Motor Speedway. “When you look at William Byron and Erik Jones, 18 and 20 years old, you see that the future of our industry sitting inside the cockpits of these Camping World Truck Series and XFINITY Series vehicles. As drivers like these make the transition to the Cup Series level we want to give our fans and their families an affordable opportunity to see the future of NASCAR today, while building a fan base for the next generation – which is the driving force behind this initiative.”
