Greetings!

Don't miss out on all the April fun in Long Beach!

If you couldn't make it out to travel the track during Grand Prix View earlier this week, no worries, we have a list of things for you and the entire family to enjoy. Go big with the 45th Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach happening Friday, April 12 thru Sunday, April 14. This is an exciting time for the city when the downtown waterfront transforms into a race track for world renowned drivers.

The festivities will begin with two multiple Grand Prix of Long Beach winners—Sebastien Bourdais and Will Power— being inducted on Thursday, April 11, into the Motorsports Walk of Fame, and you're all invited!
