Really fun watching the variety of races. 4 or 5 different race car categories, a few races for each category plus qualifying rounds. They also have a youth racing category (the youngest were 11-14 year olds).Go early for good seating on the top row, bring a blanket to drape on the back to block the sun. Everything is open to the elements, but on a hot summer night is it’s perfect. Great entertainment, the food was good. Burgers, fried pickles, nachos, chili cheese fries, hand dipped ice cream bars, taco truck, tamales, mexican street corn, fruit and Tajin. Be sure to bring hearing protection if you’re sensitive to loud sounds and especially for small children. The race track is really great about keeping the family zone alcohol and smoking free. Big section for those that want to enjoy those activities. Security was kind and professional to everyone who I saw was asked to move to the other section where alcohol and smoking was allowed. There is also an after party so to speak for fans and spectators to go meet and talk with the racers. We didn’t stay for that but a lot of people did. Races are all summer until Labor Day I believe. We also have a lot of fun every time we...

The seating is first come first served and it's typical aluminum bench seating with no backing. The entry process was simple and organized. We arrived at 6:15pm with the races starting at 6:30, grabbed a seat and the races began. I had my daughter and 4 yr old grandson and they loved it. It wasn't so loud that we needed ear protection. The prelim races were short and very entertaining. They had a class where people created basic cars to compete, like a minivan, sedans, etc they were painted crazy but the driving was terrific and chaotic. Plenty of crashes and spin outs for excitement. The food was your basic stadium food and the prices weren't horrible. The alcohol, in my opinion, was cheap $7 for a 24oz beer. This is great entertainment for a very good price. I highly recommend a...
Read moreI love going here. Racers from all over (California, Oregon, Washington, Utah, Colorado, Canada etc.)come to this short track. Plus our very own local guys. They have family friendly areas, non smoking areas, and my favorite...the north end!! Almost anything goes here for the 'North end Animals'!! It is honestly fun for all ages. From little children to the not so little children, this place has em all! I have been here many times for whether as a spectator or helping my friend and daughter with their race cars. The announcers are amazing. The crew that works here keep the show going smoothly each and every time. The safety crew are fast, efficient, and always on the spot! I have been to a handful of other tracks in Washington, Utah and Idaho and none of them touch how amazing Meridian Speedway truly is! Hats off to everyone who make this...
