There is no camping allowed in the general parking lot and non camping spectators must leave the grounds by 11pm each night (you are not allowed to camp in your car.)

RACE TRAILERS & PADDOCK SPACE

All paddock spots will have space for your car and your camping gear. Unused trailers will not be allowed in the paddock after setup and must be placed in the boneyard for the duration of the weekend. Each paddock space this year will have a strict 15’x40’ footprint. Additional space can be secured beginning July 1st for an additional fee. If you are bringing an RV Toter or other large footprint you will need to secure additional space. Additional space will be limited to 80x20 and can be secured for .10 per square foot.

Every vehicle and person staying on site for the weekend must have a festival ticket (or drivers ticket) AND a vehicle camping pass. 

SPECTATOR CAMPING: Vehicle camping passes include access for 1 standard vehicle and up to 4 passengers.

DRIVER CAMPING: The only attendees allowed to camp in the primary paddock are competition drivers and drift participants. Each driver receives one paddock pass for their on track vehicle and one pass for their support vehicle (additional vehicle passes must be purchased).

RV'S & CAMPERS

RV'S and Campers are permitted at Circuit Legends and require a RV pass for the weekend. RV parking is dry camping so there will be no water/sewer/electrical hookups in the RV area. Please bring enough gas and water for the weekend. RV/Camper pumping can be arranged by calling Enviro-Clean at (845) 590-5574.

For drivers there is no additional fee for RV’s; however, there is an additional fee for space that extends beyond your available foot space.

Scooters or motorized vehicles that are plated and have been used as primary transport into the festival, or as show vehicles, are allowed but must be driven at 10mph inside the venue. Any vehicles that are seen in violation of this rule may be impounded for the duration of the weekend. Bicycles, skateboards, swagways, etc. are all permitted.This is for your safety and the safety of your fellow attendees.

PETS

We love pups but for the safety of all attendees we strongly discourage bringing pets. It is our policy that should you absolutely need to bring your pet, it must be kept under the control of a leash or in your vehicle with adequate ventilation, food and water.

Pets are NOT allowed unattended in the campground. You must pick up and dispose of waste left behind by your pet. Should the pet cause harm or become a disturbance to other spectators, it will be grounds for ejection from the park without a refund. Pets are NOT permitted in Paddock areas during spectator events.

VEHICLE MOVEMENT

The only vehicles permitted to be moving around the facilities in the primary paddock are driver vehicles. There is no pop up limbo or cruising the grounds permitted. Additionally, there will be no vehicle movement permitted after 12:00am unless you are leaving the festival grounds. 

EXIT AND RE-ENTRY

Exit and Re-Entry will be permitted for all #GRIDLIFE Attendees. However exit gates will only be open during non peak times to aid in speed of entry for those waiting to get into the festival. If you leave the festival you must wait back in line to re-enter. So If you leave to get supplies, Wendys nuggets, or Coke Zero please plan to car pool and limit your exit to non peak times.

THINGS THAT WILL GET YOU KICKED OUT

We want you to have a good time and it's okay to get excited about #GRIDLIFE. But before you express that excitement, know what forms of expression can get you booted and banned. Burnouts, Revving, donuts in the grass, cooler smashing, neighbor harassing, S*it talking, fighting, thievery, excessive noise, banned substances, weapons, hot dog (or other) unapproved vending, late night 2 stepping, drinking while the track is hot, and excessive party fouls. Basically don't be a dummy.

2024 FESTIVAL MAPS

THE GRIDLIFE CODE

#GRIDLIFE is about the merging of multiple automotive cultures. We bring everyone together on common ground for 3 days of motorsports and automotive passion. We work incredibly hard to make sure #GRIDLIFE is an amazing experience for everyone that attends, and following these guiding principles can make sure you, and everyone around you, has the best possible time at #GRIDLIFE.

BE A FAMILY

Respect is number one on the grid. Take care of your friends and make an effort to make new friends. #GRIDLIFE works because of respect shared across the festival. Watch out for your neighbors and be an example of positivity for everyone you meet.

BE PREPARED

#GRIDLIFE is a multi day event. It's best to plan ahead and equip yourself and your campsite with everything you need for the weekend. Hydration, sunscreen, rain gear, chairs, coolers, backup power for your devices, etc. You don't want to spend the whole fest at the Wal-Mart.

STAY STOKED

#GRIDLIFE is for positivity and good times only. Leave the negative vibes, internet tolling, and the hateraid at home. Spend 3 days hanging with your friends exchanging high fives, helping others out, and getting down on the track, in the show, and at the concerts.

DON'T OVERDO IT

It's easy to get carried away with a good time. We've all been there, just try not to do it on the grid. Pace yourself throughout the weekend. You don't want to turn up to hard on Saturday and then forget to turn in during the first session on Sunday.

DON'T BE THAT GUY

Thinking about driving your silver STi around and stealing coolers? Or doing a sweet ass burnout by your camp site?Don't. You're ruining it for everyone. There are bad apples in every bunch, try not to be the bad apple in yours and if you must do a burnout, save it for the Wal-Mart parking lot.

KEEP IT CLEAN

Respect the racetrack, respect the staff, respect your neighbors, and keep your spot clean. Pick up after yourself and remind others to do the same. Hosting an event like this is a privilege we don't want to lose. It's up to all of us to leave the track as we found it if not better.
