About the NASCAR Chicago Street Race
Our Sponsorship
“Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Illinois is part of the fabric of Chicago and Illinois. The NASCAR Chicago Street Race Weekend is taking place on the doorstep of our headquarters building, and we expect it to be an exciting addition to Chicago’s sports legacy,” said Stephen Harris, BCBSIL president.
“NASCAR has demonstrated its commitment to Chicago beyond the races — which aligns with our commitment to help improve the health and wellness of people across Illinois. We ‘DRIVE ACCESS’ to care and will work to drive access and opportunities for people from around Chicago to be part of the excitement surrounding the event.” This community activation builds on the legacy of BCBSIL supporting the city and its people."

Part of festival preparation is knowing your way around. Gear up for a safe and enjoyable experience and take note of emergency exits, water stations, medical tents, and restrooms.
Stay Hydrated
- Drink water throughout the day. Staying hydrated is key especially during the warm summer months.
- Empty plastic water bottles and hydration packs are permitted on the race grounds.
- Be sure to re-fill your plastic water bottle often at the hydration stations located throughout the park.
Wear Sunscreen
- Safely soak up the sun. Apply and re-apply sunscreen throughout the day.
- Attendees are permitted to bring sunscreen in non-aerosol containers in the size of 3.4 ounces or less.
Bring Essential Medications
- Don’t forget to bring your medications to the festival to ensure a fun and safe experience. See NASCAR’s prescription medicine requirements below.
- Prescription Medicine Requirements: Anyone needing prescription medicine must present the pharmacy-labeled container which states the prescription, dosage, and patient name to our medical staff at each entrance gate.
- Patrons are only allowed a sufficient supply of the prescribed medication for that day.
- Over the counter medications are allowed in a sufficient supply for the day.
