About this Event
It's another amazing Last Row Party! We have so much in store for 2026! Here's what's happening:
- An incredible location at Dallara IndyCar Factory, one of the biggest names in IndyCar
- Experience the heart of motorsports with behind-the-scenes tours to check out the cutting-edge engineering that powers top-tier racing*
- Drive in your very own LRP Race (OK, it's a simulator -- still super cool!) for bragging rights*
- Get your groove on with an amazing cover band straight out of the 80s and 90s, bringing the hits all night long
And, of course, you'll still enjoy the annual meet and greet and roast of the last three drivers who make up the Last Row of the Indianapolis 500.
Join us for the Last Row Party on Thursday, May 21 from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. In its 54th year, this annual event is one of the 500’s best events and we're ready to celebrate.
Don't forget to take home the best part: Last Row Party T-shirts can be purchased with registration for $30 pre-order or $40 at the door!
The 2026 Last Row Drivers will be announced shortly before Race Day! Past years' last row drivers have included Alexander Rossi, Ryan Briscoe, Tony Kanaan, Ryan Hunter-Reay, Ana Beatriz, Sebastian Saavedra and Takuma Sato. All were Last Row Party honorees and instant crowd favorites.
Tickets are $65 per person. Attire is casual.
