About The Experience
IMPORTANT: This a premium experience that requires ticket purchase for entry.
To get an up-close view of the hydroplanes and all the action on the water, visitors can purchase pit passes.
Pit passes give visitors access to the pit areas where the hydroplanes are kept and worked on, as well as to the driver and team areas where they can interact with the drivers and crew members.
Watch as the drivers prepare for their races, teams work on the hydroplanes, see the boats up close, and get a behind-the-scenes look at the action.
