“Shifting the driver/crew chief meetings to The Classic Amphitheater provides another unprecedented Richmond fan experience for our loyal and dedicated fans,” said Richmond President Dennis Bickmeier. “In working with NASCAR, we continue to find unique ways to immerse fans into the sport.”

The NASCAR XFINITY Series driver/crew chief Meeting on Friday, Sept. 8, is open to fans with a Virginia529 College Savings 250 ticket. The gates to The Classic Amphitheater will open at 2 p.m. for fans to grab a seat for the meeting beginning at 3 p.m. No coolers will be allowed and fans are required to have a ticket to the race to attend the meeting.

The Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series Driver/Crew Chief Meeting on Saturday, Sept. 9, is open to 2017 Richmond Nation season ticket holders. Richmond Nation patrons who renew as part of the 2018 Early Bird campaign, July 7 through Aug. 31, will be eligible to receive preferred seating in the front half of the facility. All seating is limited and on a first-come, first-served basis.

To claim their spot in Saturday’s Monster Energy Series Driver/Crew Chief Meeting, 2017 Richmond Nation members must present their membership card at one of The Classic Amphitheater gates, which will open at 4 p.m.

The driver/crew chief meeting begins at 5:30 p.m., but a host of events will take place leading up to the event. Fans are encouraged to make their way to The Classic Amphitheater early as the event is expected to be full.
