POCONO INTERNATIONAL RACEWAY Reviews

First time going it was a blast lots to do when there wasnt a race foing on kid and pet friendly

Its a race way , you'll obviously love it. Make sure u know what kinda event it is and if its in your interest. The drive to this place was amazing ! Great place to just have a long drive too !

My Home Track. Huge in scope. Sit high a possible for view ot the entire track.

Very nice place, the workers tried their best to narrow traffic out of the area there best

Great track with decent facilities. You have to know when to come and how to get in and out of the track to avoid traffic, but if you do, it's a good time. The racing has been hit or miss, but I still keep coming back.

Outstanding facility. Fantastic track layout produces great Indycar races. Good concessions, clean bathrooms

Fun times watching the NASCAR races! And the way they direct traffic after a race is the best i have seen compared to NHMS & Dover

Very disappointed. This July 4th, 2015 there will be no fireworks display. For the past 3 years since moving to the Poconos full time, the July 4th fireworks have become a family tradition. This year, because there is no race scheduled, there are no fireworks. As a resident of this area, the Pocono Raceway is a large staple of this community. Local residents have to deal with the ungodly traffic that occurs during the multiple weekends throughout the year. As a leading business in this community, it is a shame the raceway put business first and did not put on a display for the local community that supports them year after year. I don't expect a free display, charge per vehicle, etc and enough people from the local community know about the yearly displays to have a substantial attendance. If you ask me this is a big fail by the raceway's PR dept.

Great time wish you could see all the way around the track

I've been going to Pocono since the mid 80's. Spent many years camping inside the track & my grandstand Tix are right at the start/finish line. Great place to share with family and friends!!!

Great place, fast track. Sorry to see it won't be on the Indycar schedule next year.

The track has always been kept in great condition every time I've gone on it.

Got the covered seats, but you have to climb every single step in the bleachers to get there. Only get them if you get deathly ill from the sun, or you won't move the entire race.

Fun! Went on a Saturday for the first time. I was disappointed to see the lack of vendors! I was ready to spend lots of money but the items weren't quality, sloppy displays and holy wow!! The food prices are threw the roof. I didn't drink alcohol because I was driving. A double shot $18 and a single shot $10. $4 for the 16oz bottles of soda and water! The blooming onion stand made my stomach hurt too say the least! Lol with all the staff smoking and standing around where's management to make them pick up some? I don't know... the truck race was cool tho. It would be nice to see more. I would go back on a Sunday to set if it's any better. Maybe Saturday sucks? If Sunday is like that, no i wouldn't go back but I'm not die hard either. It could be something really great. Just my opinion....

Great place to let go and party on the infield and there is always something new to do.

Awesome, Awesome Day. Wonderfully run. Every one was so pleasant. See You Next Year

My dad recently passed away,and he was a huge NASCAR fan. They were so gracious and allowed us to spread some of his ashes inside the complex. It was really moving..great place!!!

Awesome! Great day, friendly staff. Definitely will do again

It's all about the environment!! It's electric, almost magnetic.

Didnt actually make it into the track. But saw an absolutely amazing lantern festival in the parking lot! Words cannot describe the feelings I felt when they took off.

We were here for a NASCAR race, we were thoroughly impressed on the cleanliness, how everything was organized, everyone was friendly and all around great time!!

This was my first time going. I attended the Airshow and really enjoyed it. As someone who's a bit older, I chose tickets for the "bucket seats". These seats are a little more comfortable on my back than bleachers. I'll be sure to attend events here in the future.

Just arrived, our first time here. The camping check in was horrible. We have camped at 8 different tracks and never had a bad experience until now. Made us park in wet muddy grass to check in and damn near got stuck. You "checked" our trailer, dumb. Could have had all types of contraband under the couch, under the bed or in the outside compartments. All you did was poke your head in. Big waste of our time. Then, everybody in that camp group has to go through checkin.Then, you make us wear annoying paper wristbands all weekend. LAME!! Parked in a campground not in the infield, large area but only one set of bathrooms that we could find. And the bathroom/shower house leaves a lot to be desired. So far, this has been a miserable experience. Hopefully the race will be good. However, on a possitive note, Beautiful track, wonderful fan zone, great food. Read lots of complaints about the prices, but the food and drink prices were right in line with the other tracks we have been to. I did not like paying the same price for canping as we do at other track, but not being allowed in until thursday.
We usually go in on monday and camp all week. Sunday's race was incredible, weather was fantastic, we had great seats though somewhat uncomfortable. Aside from the check in and the poor shower/bathroom
situation it has been a wonderful weekend. Although, just found out why they did not scan our Saturday tickets. That was free to campers. Just decided two months ago to do that and those of us who had already purchased our campsite and tickets for Saturday and Sunday were just s.o.l. I know tracks do not give refunds for rain outs and such, but I feel in this case since they changed this AFTER tickets were purchased, they should refun the cost of Saturdays tickets. Definite thumbs down to Pocono for this.

All at the track was great, accept who won that day. Fun family day.

One of my favorite tracks on the Nascar schedule & only a 2 hr drive from long island but I'm not in favor with the new release entry policy

One of NASCAR's best, most dedicated tracks on the circuit.

Avoid the infield events. There are many Pocono Mountain Regional undercover police looking to make money from tickets. I was harassed and cited in June. The group of officers will stop and search you without cause or provocation -- and they enjoy being rough! The concert at the infield party is not worth the trouble and the police will be sure to bother you while there. I urge everyone reading this to avoid to the infield party on Friday and Saturday -- stay at your camp site where it is safe. Also avoid the fan party on Sunday.

Very open and well arranged venue. Food and drinks are expensive but not disgustingly expensive.

You got to go see a race it's the best we stayed in the infield and barbecued and had a great time

Track is very unique, staff was very polite and the bathrooms were very clean

Nascar Is Not My Thing. But then I found out you can rent this track to other Car Events.

Indycar race was amazing. Had no issue coming back the next day for the race after the Sunday rain out.

You can take your car there after. Omlleting 10miles (4 laps) in a stock car.
Although only have left corners, still a good place to excessive you sports car in a safe and friendly environment. Has two long enough straightaways to take your car to a top speed without getting a ticket or hitting a deer.

This place looks soo huge from the outside I've never been inside

One of my favorite racetracks to visit. The park outside has activities for kids and the food court has great eats. Everything you could want at the races, corndogs, coca-cola, funnel cakes, chicken fingers and burgers.

We will find out next year in 2020 how real they are.

Great event!!! I loved it!! Its a must do for everyone at every level, color, shape and size.

Efficient organization comfortable place but no shade relaxed atmosphere

Little out dated the food and drinks were way over priced facilities were not good seats were uncomfortable staff didn't know anything very disappointed left early not even half way through the race

First time here with the race team I m apart of, it was weird not having fans in the stands and only having the spotters above the grand stands. All in all, minus the inconvenience of the rain it turned out to be a great evening; even if it was still hot in a race suit.

Always a great experience while there with the different racing clubs we belong to. The staff is fantastic and always a pleasure to deal with.

Great value for your dollar. Super fun way to spend a day. If you enjoy loud fast cars, check this place out when a race comes through.

The higher you sit the better, but there really isn't a bad seat in the house. Went for an Indy car race with the family. Great value and a fun day at the track.

Super fun tour, highly recommend for all ages. Hope to go to a race there someday!

Amazing experience! Staff is friendly and helpful! Clean place!

The policy when you enter and leave you have a timed or no reentry back into the track WHAT!!!!!!!!!! This limited us from buying food and Pocono items to take home. I live 2 hours away and wont be back. I have been going Pocono since the very first race {Indy Car} 1971. Is this a Nascar policy or just a Pocono policy and if its a Pocono policy Nascar needs to be informed. Who wants to go in and buy items and leave the area and have 45 minutes to get back in or you cant see the race. Nice knowing you Pocono. another 2 empty seats. Maybe you should look at the empty stands and figure out how to fill them instead of empting them

Parking attendants need more training on how to deal with traffic. Though it has improved greatly over the years.

Not bad place to watch a race, however theres only one screen and unless your in middle of the grandstands cant really see it or the driver placement board. Activities around the fan zone were excellent

Great track and easy to park. However, the WORST track to leave! Don't expect to leave any time soon after the race ends. Seems they have a lot of people to direct you into the lots, but no one to direct cars out. Complete mess! Race was over at 6:15. It's now 7:40 and we moved about 200 ft.

Nice track nice area, clean restrooms. Barbecue areas in Pavilion where nice. Was there for a bike ride dirt bikes and quads.

I went at Night Right. The event is held in a square near the parking lot. There are many things written on the site, but there is no baggage inspection. There are bounces for children to play, so you can enjoy even if you go early. I took a chair, but if I have kids, I would like a rug. Thick is good because there is a rock. Because it is cold by blowing, take measures against cold! There will be considerable traffic on the way home.

Had a Great time with Cyndi and Patrick at the Pocono Raceway. They do a great job putting on a entertaining race.
