Sonoma Raceway Gears Up for 50,000 Fans at NASCAR’s California Event

Sonoma Raceway is set to welcome approximately 50,000 fans for the only NASCAR event in California this year, the highly anticipated Toyota/Save Mart 350, taking place on March 17, 2024. This three-day event will feature a variety of races and attractions, giving attendees a unique opportunity to experience NASCAR’s thrilling high-speed action live.

Gates will open at 10 a.m. on Saturday and 7 a.m. on Sunday, allowing fans to participate in several pre-race activities leading up to the main event on Sunday afternoon. The event is expected to draw significant interest from both local and out-of-state racing enthusiasts, making it a major highlight on the racing calendar.

High Anticipation Surrounds the Event

According to race officials, the combination of the event’s exclusive California appearance and the influx of visitors underscores the anticipated high turnout. The excitement surrounding the Toyota/Save Mart 350 is amplified by various attractions and practice sessions scheduled throughout the weekend, ensuring a comprehensive racing experience for fans.

Organizers have carefully structured the event to provide a memorable experience, with numerous activities designed to engage attendees before the race. However, public transport options to the raceway are unavailable, leading organizers to recommend early arrival and the consideration of rideshare services to navigate potential parking complications.

Traffic and Parking Advisory

Free parking will be available adjacent to the venue, but overnight parking is restricted to camping areas, which are already sold out. Traffic congestion is expected, particularly on Highways 37, 121, and Lakeville Road, where heavy flow is anticipated throughout the weekend. Organizers have identified peak traffic times and are advising fans to arrive early to minimize delays.

Officials stress the importance of planning ahead to ensure a smooth experience for all attendees. On Saturday, fans can catch the action of the NASCAR Xfinity Series on KRON4 News, further enhancing the racing weekend.
