The spacious 35,000-square-foot Richardson Ballroom with seating for 1,800 in banquet rounds is complemented by the Crown Ballroom, which was unveiled in 2010. Connected to the NASCAR Hall of Fame via an over-street walkway, the 40,000-square-foot ballroom seats 2,400 banquet-style or 4,200 theater-style. The dynamic space features unobstructed views as well as an 1,800-square-foot permanent built-in stage with state-of-the-art audio/visual capabilities. Approximately 11,600 square feet of pre-function space is available just outside of the Crown Ballroom doors. Its accessibility to the NASCAR Hall also means groups can take advantage of this high-octane attraction for evening receptions and special events before utilizing the Crown Ballroom. The award-winning, in-house catering and dining team tempts taste buds with items for buffets, main meals, session breaks, hors d’oeuvres, lighter portions and special selections. All choices incorporate Southern influences, local ingredients, or a fresh spin on old favorites. The venue’s food court, appropriately named Delish, includes a Starbucks Coffee and three dining options: Bojangles Famous Chicken and Biscuits, Buon Cibo and Einstein Bros. Bagels.
Parking is available at prevailing rates in the NASCAR Hall of Fame Parking deck adjacent to the Charlotte Convention Center. Parking for guests with disabilities is also available here, but they must display proper state identification.
