FAQ - Useful Info

After two years of pandemic, the GP3R has decided to make a card only turn. Starting this year, it will no longer be possible to pay in cash for parking as well as the kiosks managed by the Grand Prix de Trois-Rivières. The food concessions have the choice to accept cash or not.

Here are the accepted payment methods :

• Interac
• Mastercard
• VIsa

Permits on site
Lunches, non-alcoholic beverages, children's strollers, dogs under 20 kilos on leash. Coolers are subject to random search.

Not allowed on site

• You will not be allowed to bring your own chairs on site. Wooden bleachers are available for general admission spectators, but space is limited.
• No glass containers or alcoholic beverages may be brought in from outside the venue. However, non-alcoholic beverages - including beer, wine and 0.0% alcohol spirits - in cans or plastic bottles are permitted.
• Weapons of any kind, drugs of any kind (including cannabis and its derivatives), bicycles, skates and skateboards, motorcycles, scooters and pocket bikes are not allowed on the site.

To access the site of the Grand Prix of Trois-Rivières, a child of 12 years old and less must be accompanied by an adult. Their access is free for the general admission.

To access the reserved grandstands, it is mandatory to have a ticket, even if it is a child.

People with reduced mobility can attend races in a stand located outside turn # 9 near the Cogeco entrance during the NASCAR weekend. This platform is located near the address 2250 Boul des forges!

This platform also features sun shelters.

In this area you'll find an adapted toilet, a bar and a food concession.

Also, a few public parkings in the area are identified as restricted mobility people parkings.

WEEKEND NASCAR

This year is the return of the Open House on the Friday of Nascar weekend (August 5, 2022)!

General admission is free on this day only. This allows access to the baseball style wooden grandstands. It is not possible to go in the reserved grandstands because they require a ticket.
