UPDATE: PLEASE SEE THE LATEST POST REGARDING NO LONGER BEING ABLE TO HOST THE EVENT AT OLD FORT PARKER. WE CURRENTLY DO NOT HAVE A NEW VENUE.
The team behind the successful launch of the first Groesbeck Grand Prix - A Motorsports Festival is excited to officially announce dates for the second annual running of the event! Labor Day Weekend, September 4th-6th, 2021 returning to Old Fort Parker in beautiful Groesbeck Texas.
"We are working with our community partners, sponsors, and vendors to make sure that 2021 has even more to offer. In addition to the time trial and car show, we will be adding more food options, exhibits, and off-site activities such as automotive art shows, cocktail receptions, and one of a kind unique experiences" said Michael Satterfield, founder of The Groesbeck Grand Prix.
Event organizers have added an additional day and are working with other organizations to make sure that attendees have more than enough options for entertainment and recreation. Planning includes the addition of an automotive film festival, art exhibitions, an expanded vendor area, and additional off-site activities. With over 400 people gathering for the inaugural running and tickets selling out in advance, the staff is preparing for a much larger crowd in 2021 and is working with the venue management to improve the camping areas for those who choose to stay on site.
"We did a survey of our participants and attendees to see what they liked and where we could improve, parking and more food options were at the top of the list. We are also going to be adding more vendors and exhibitors to give people more to do on-site" said Amanda Genduso, event manager Groesbeck Grand Prix.
Participant registration will launch in Q1 of 2021, but drivers or show car owners who are interested are encouraged to contact event management as soon as possible. Ticketing information and more details will be posted on GroesbeckGrandPrix.com.
