Recreational vehicle owners who also enjoy auto racing
should find themselves at home at Pocono Raceway – a fa-
cility that not only offers tailgating but also on-site camping
during race weekends.
Open since 1968, the raceway’s “tricky triangle” track has
been a frequent stop for NASCAR and Indy car races over
the past 50 years. Pocono will be hosting four races in five
days this upcoming season, starting on June 25 and running
through June 28 – including a NASCAR first two Monster
Energy Cup Series races on back-to-back days. The weekend
will also include competition from the Gander Outdoors
Truck and ARCA Menards Series.
Racing fans who travel by recreational vehicle to the
raceway have the option of camping on site at the facility’s
campground areas located within the infield as well as
outside of the grounds. The campsite offers electrical and
water hookups, water and ice vendors and bathroom facil-
ities which include showers. For June’s upcoming five-day
race weekend, a campsite offers parking for two vehicles as
well as two infield passes for guests.
After racing has concluded for the day, the racetrack offers
evening activities for campers – including bingo, paint-and-
sip, live music and fireworks.
For attendees only wanting to tailgate, parking is free and
the lots open at 6 a.m. Open campfires and barrel fires
are not permitted and tailgating is only permitted directly
behind spectator vehicles. Visitors also are encouraged to
be courteous of others in attendance and to not occupy
additional spaces around vehicles. Overnight parking is not
permitted in the general parking area, with racetrack staff
beginning to clear the lots around dusk.
During previous racing seasons, Pocono has offered VIP and
VIP Premium tailgating options. The VIP package includes
parking in a special, designated area closer to the track,
two parking spaces and passes for eight guests while the
premium package offers a canopy tent, table and chairs and
a cooler full of ice. Anyone interested should in these pack-
ages should contact the racetrack about availability.
