Buy Tickets Online
The easiest and most reliable way to get Indy 500 tickets is through the official Indy 500 website. Prices range from $40to $150for seats and $20 for admission only. You can choose the general location of your seats, and if you are trying to sit near friends, you can choose the nearest, open seat. This is the best way to get tickets because you won't get scammed and it is more reliable. You can also buy tickets through another online ticket vendor; just make sure it is a popular, trustworthy site.
If all tickets are sold out at the online ticket vendors, a more risky choice is to try EBay or Craigslist. If you plan on using Craigslist, the best choice is to get the tickets from Indianapolis, because there will be many more tickets there than any other city. Make sure they have some proof that is it official. Usually they will give you their receipt from the purchase or a document they received from wherever they bought it to prove that it is original and not a fake or a copy. If you buy them in advance, you might be able to purchase two or more seats next to each other.
Get Tickets Locally
You can always go directly to the ticket vendor at the track, or if they are sold out, from scalpers the week of the event. Or you can send them money and your preferred seating location through the mail. They will send you your tickets or your money back in a short amount of time.
Other Tickets/Passes to Consider
Besides an admission (seat) ticket, they also offer parking and camping permits online for anyone planning to bring an RV or camp out for either the race day, or for 4 days. They also sell tickets for any of the practice days for $5 (each ticket is for one day) and $10 for any of the qualification days and for Miller Lite Car Day.
*ADMISSION tickets are free for any children 5 years and under. These are only for admission and NOT seats.
