It’s free to walk around downtown and enjoy the show and the buzz of activity, and it’s only $5 (free for kids 6 and younger) to go inside Century II to see the Million Dollar Car display, Gasoline Alley with 9 decades of racing cars and memorabilia, and the vendor booths. Bring some cash for food, drinks, and vendor booths. Some of the fun driving attractions may also charge a fee.

Blacktop Nationals events will be Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, in downtown Wichita, in and around the Century II Convention Center.
