Looking for an easy weekend escape that delivers big-time excitement? Just under two hours from Huntsville, one of Alabama’s most action-packed events is ready to rev your engines.

The most thrilling event of the season returns to Birmingham at Barber Motorsports Park for the Children’s of Alabama Indy Grand Prix powered by AmFirst, happening March 27–29.

If you’ve been waiting for the perfect excuse to plan a quick road trip, this is it. Here’s how to turn race weekend into a can’t-miss adventure.

See all your favorite Indy drivers

If you’ve ever dreamed of experiencing the same drivers and machines as the legendary Indianapolis 500, this is your chance.

The Indy Grand Prix features 90 laps and 207 miles of heart-pounding action as elite drivers battle it out on one of the most scenic road courses in the country.

Often nicknamed “The Augusta National of Motorsports,” Barber’s 17-turn, 2.3-mile track delivers thrilling overtakes, tight corners and unbeatable views from nearly every angle.

It’s more than a race—it’s a full-on festival

The Piggly Wiggly Fan Zone is an all-ages playground packed with excitement. Think Ferris wheel, interactive activities, food trucks and live music that keeps the energy high all weekend long.

Want an even closer look? Head to The Garage for behind-the-scenes access to Indy cars and drivers. You can also stroll through The Henderson Auction Car Corral to admire exotic and vintage vehicles up close.

Multiple racing series = nonstop action

The weekend lineup goes far beyond one race. In addition to the headlining NTT INDYCAR SERIES, fans can catch:

• INDY NXT by Firestone
• Porsche Sprint Challenge North America by Yokohama
• Porsche Cayman Cup
• Mustang Cup

From sleek European performance cars to classic American muscle, every race adds a new level of excitement to the weekend schedule.
