We’re thrilled and ready to welcome back
guests to the NASCAR Hall of Fame, the health and safety of our visitors and staff is
our highest priority, and b
ased on months of hard work from our teammates at
the Hall and Charlotte Regional Visitors Authority, we are confident we
are prepared to safely reopen. 

Winston Kelley, Executive Director of NASCAR Hall of Fame.


 Below are just a few of the measures being implemented at the
NASCAR Hall of Fame: 

  • In accordance with state and local guidelines,
    guests are required to wear face masks or coverings throughout their time
    at the Hall
  • Cleaning crews have increased cleaning frequency with
    special attention given to high-touch areas (elevator buttons, stair
    handrails, etc.)
  • Guests will be provided with a complimentary individual
    stylus to accommodate no-touch interactions with the Hall’s many
    touch-screen exhibits. In addition, interactive displays will be
    sanitized multiple times per day
  • Electrostatic/disinfectant sprayers will be used in
    high-touch areas including, but not limited to, the High Octane Theater,
    racing simulators, Pit Crew Experience, and Legends Room
  • Color-coordinated microfiber cloths are being used with
    a disinfectant cleaning solution to eliminate cross-contamination in
    high-touch areas
  • Dozens of hand sanitizer stations have been installed
    strategically throughout the building in high traffic areas
  • All NASCAR Hall employees have been provided with face
    masks and are required to wear them while on duty
  • Foot claws have been installed on all restroom doors
    for hands-free use
  • Cleanliness patrols are being implemented to
    disinfect high-touch areas throughout the day and to check that all soap
    and sanitizer dispensers are full
  • All team members have completed mandatory training
    sessions to understand and implement these modified procedures and
    sanitation practices to provide for the health of both guests and employees
  • CDC “Stop the Spread of Germs” posters and signage
    detailing proper handwashing/hygiene procedures in both English and
    Spanish have been placed in all bathrooms

In addition, the CRVA
is also pursuing Global Biorisk Advisory Council (GBAC) STAR certifications for
all of its buildings. This is the gold standard of prepared facilities and
the cleaning industry’s only outbreak prevention, response, and recovery
accreditation for them.

indicate proper spacing. Cashless transactions are also preferred for any
purchases once at the Hall.
