If you can’t make it to France next month to watch Corvettes competing at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the National Corvette Museum has you covered.
Continuing a tradition that began in 2015, the NCM has again arranged to show a special direct feed of the race, complete with commentary by the ACO, during a Le Mans Viewing Party at the Museum.
The race will be shown on the 28-foot screen in the Chevrolet Theater from 7 a.m. June 11 through 10:30 a.m. on June 12 – complete with live timing and scoring, refreshments, private Skypes from the Corvette Racing team, and even door prizes.
But if you’re interested in “the next best thing to being there,” as the Museum puts it, you need to hurry as space will be “very limited” and early registration is highly suggested.
The cost to attend is $150 per person and comes with many special perks, including 24-hour access to the Chevrolet Theater and the NCM Conference Center for viewing the race.
Admission also includes pastries, fruit and danishes on Saturday and Sunday mornings, lunch and dinner on Saturday, 24-hour soda and coffee service, cash bar Saturday from 5:15 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., Saturday evening ice cream sandwiches, snacks and refreshments all 24 hours, and drawings for memorabilia (must be registered participant and present to win).
The front grass circle entrance door (parking lot A entrance) will be covered by security from 5 p.m. to 8 a.m. so you are free to come and go at your leisure.
RV parking is allowed in the truck parking lot for Saturday night (no water hook-ups available) of this event. You can even bring in your sleeping bags, blankets, pillows, etc., to stay all night in the NCM. All activities are open to event registrants only.
