A Milestone Celebration at Naval Base Coronado
NASCAR’s San Diego Weekend, branded as the Anduril 250 Race the Base, will unfold at the historic Naval Base Coronado in California. The event marks the 250th anniversary of the United States Navy, weaving military heritage into the fabric of America’s premier stock‑car racing weekend.
General admission tickets for Saturday and Sunday have sold out, leaving only premium hospitality packages available for fans eager to experience the action. These exclusive tickets grant access to enhanced viewing areas, curated hospitality suites, and additional amenities that elevate the race‑day experience.
All attendees must present a valid government‑issued photo identification upon entry, and each ticket includes a digital parking pass that must be ready for inspection. Parking lots and base access open at 7 a.m., with spectator gates unlocking at 9 a.m., ensuring a smooth flow of traffic into the circuit.
To mitigate congestion, officials are encouraging fans to carpool and use shared transportation options. The first 10,000 guests through the gates each day will receive a commemorative giveaway item, adding an extra layer of excitement to the early arrival experience.
The Qualcomm Circuit, a 3.4‑mile layout spread across the naval base, will host three marquee races: the NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series’ Navy 250, the O’Reilly Auto Parts Series’ United Rentals Driven to Serve 250, and the Cup Series’ Anduril 250. Each race promises high‑speed competition on a uniquely coastal track.
Fans are advised to wear comfortable footwear and stay hydrated throughout the day, as the event features extended hours for the Fan Zone, live entertainment, and post‑race activities that keep the celebration alive well after the checkered flag.
The partnership with Anduril and the involvement of local government agencies underscore a collaborative effort to honor the Navy while delivering a world‑class sporting spectacle. With the support of organizations such as Sports San Diego and the United States Navy, the weekend aims to create a memorable experience for both racing enthusiasts and the broader San Diego community.
