Whether you’ve followed it for years or you’re planning your first one, Bass Pro Shops Night Race tickets put you inside one of NASCAR’s most intense short-track atmospheres.
This page covers everything you need — from understanding how Bass Pro Shops Night Race works to finding the right tickets and knowing what to expect when you arrive.
The Bass Pro Shops Night Race is an annual NASCAR Cup Series event held at Bristol Motor Speedway in Bristol, Tennessee, typically scheduled in late summer/early fall (August–September) and run at night under the lights. It’s closely tied to Bristol’s reputation as “The Last Great Colosseum,” where fans surround the action in a steep, stadium-like setting and the racing is famously physical and loud.
On the competition side, this is a single main event on Bristol’s 0.533-mile high-banked concrete oval. The Cup Series field is typically around 36–40 cars, and the race runs roughly 500 laps with three stages and stage breaks that award points. The weekend also includes support series events, giving fans multiple ways to experience Bristol beyond the headline race night.
What’s at stake is big: the winner earns a trophy and full NASCAR Cup Series championship points plus stage points. In recent years, the Bass Pro Shops Night Race has carried added pressure as a playoff event, often serving as a cutoff/elimination race in the opening playoff round—where a win can lock a driver into the next round.
Bristol’s night race history includes many of the sport’s biggest names, with Kyle Busch among the most successful in Bristol’s modern era and past winners including Dale Earnhardt, Darrell Waltrip, Rusty Wallace, and Jeff Gordon. Modern contenders have included Kyle Larson, Denny Hamlin, Christopher Bell, and Chase Elliott. If you’re planning to attend Bass Pro Shops Night Race, browsing tickets early is the smartest move.
