The 37th Annual Performance Racing Industry (PRI) Show officially opens today in Indianapolis, kicking off with the Grand Opening Breakfast featuring welcome remarks from Indiana Governor Mike Braun and a conversation with motorsports legend Mario Andretti

Taking place December 11-13 at the Indiana Convention Center and Lucas Oil Stadium, the PRI Show is the largest trade show in Indiana and the premier destination for motorsports professionals worldwide. Produced by Performance Racing Industry, the event serves as the ultimate platform for innovation, networking, and business development across all forms of racing. 

Industry Support Stronger Than Ever 

The 2025 PRI Show is on track to be one of the largest in nearly two decades, with more than 1,060 exhibitors confirmed, including 161 first-time participants. This overwhelming response underscores the industry's deep commitment to PRI as the central hub for connecting, innovating and driving business forward. 

"The PRI Show reflects the strength and passion of the motorsports industry," said PRI President Michael Good. "Every year, we bring together the people, products and ideas that shape the future of racing. This year's event is bigger than ever, and we're proud to provide a platform where innovation and opportunity converge." 

A Major Economic Driver 

Motorsports is a major economic force in the United States, generating $69.2 billion in economic activity (and $2.75 billion in the State of Indiana), supporting 318,560 full-time jobs, and delivering $22.2 billion in wages and benefits, according to PRI’s Motorsports Economic Impact Study. The PRI Show amplifies this impact by serving as the global gathering point for the industry, where business deals are made, partnerships are formed, and innovation is showcased. 

According to Visit Indy, the PRI Show contributes tens of millions of dollars in economic impact as thousands of attendees and exhibitors fill every corner of the Indiana Convention Center and Lucas Oil Stadium. This convergence of industry leaders and innovators reinforces PRI's role in shaping the future of motorsports through stronger relationships with sanctioning bodies, expanded educational programs and a growing presence at race tracks nationwide.
