Talladega Superspeedway today announced that it has extended its partnership with Clyde May’s Whiskey and is introducing the “Clyde May’s Courtyard” that will be located in the brand-new Talladega Garage Experience, set to debut this October during the NASCAR Playoffs Weekend (Oct. 11-13) featuring the 1000Bulbs.com 500 and the Sugarlands Shine 250.
The Clyde May’s Courtyard (formerly known as the Beer Garden) will be a 10,000 square-foot area, perfect for fans to congregate, relax and grab delicious Clyde May’s Alabama Style Whiskey and Clyde May’s Straight Bourbon Whiskey with signature cocktails including the popular “Alabama Mule.”
It will be located just outside the Open Air Social Club, the centerpiece of the interactive Talladega Garage Experience, the prominent area of the Transformation Infield Project presented by Graybar. The mammoth 35,000-square-foot building will be lined on both sides by two garages that will house the top 22 drivers (11 in each) in the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series. Fans will receive exclusive access inside all of the Monster Energy Cup garage bays via an “up-close” fan viewing walkway where they will be just feet away from where the drivers and teams prepare the cars during race weekend.
Clyde May’s Whiskey, the “Official State Spirit of Alabama,” has been a partner of the 2.66-mile track since 2016 when the Clyde May’s Whiskey Tower Tavern was added in the center of the Tri-Oval Tower. Fans can still quench their thirst at the Clyde May’s Whiskey Tower Tavern as it will remain. The addition of the Clyde May’s Courtyard continues the long-standing tradition of bringing the best southern hospitality to the great fans of Talladega Superspeedway.
Fans with a Talladega Garage Experience admission can also enjoy FREE Wi-Fi, incredible $4 or less Value-Priced Concessions, a Kids Zone, Game Zone, entertainment stage for local music, Driver Q&A’s and other interviews, social areas, Gatorade Victory Lane celebrations after each race, as well as Sunday pre-race ceremonies and Driver Introductions at the Start-Finish line and much more!
The Sugarlands Shine 250 for the NASCAR Gander Outdoors Truck Series will kick off the track’s 50th Anniversary, action-packed weekend on Saturday, Oct. 12 at 12:30 p.m. CDT. The anchor event, the 1000Bulbs.com 500 Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series race, is scheduled for a 1 p.m. CDT start on Sunday, Oct. 13. Both will serve as key playoff events in each series.
