About this event

Race car fans can meet Indy 500 drivers at the Last Row Party on Thursday, May 23 from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. In its 52nd year, this annual event honors and roasts the three drivers who make up the last or 11th row of the Indianapolis 500 race.

In partnership with the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, the Last Row Party is held at the Hulman Terrace Club & Suites, which has a spectacular view of the track.

One of the 500’s best events, fans can eat, drink and laugh as drivers are interviewed.

And don't forget to take home the best part: Last Row Party T-shirts can be purchased with registration for $30 pre-order or $40 at the door!

The 2024 Last Row Drivers will be announced shortly before Race Day!

Past years' last row drivers have included Alexander Rossi, Ryan Briscoe, Tony Kanaan, Ryan Hunter-Reay, Ana Beatriz, Sebastian Saavedra and Takuma Sato. All were Last Row Party honorees and instant crowd favorites.

Tickets are $75 per person. Attire is casual.
