Iconic Attraction
Our Take
Hardcore racing fans don't need to be told why the IMS is extraordinary, but a visit to the Indy 500 should be on everyone's bucket list for the experience alone, kind of like the Kentucky Derby, minus the hats. It's massive a party, steeped in tradition and lore, that virtually shuts down the whole city for the day. If you're not visiting on race day or for any events leading up to it, the IMS Museum provides a ton of artifacts and history that should get you feeling the passion.
