Guest Services Usher Event Staff - Talladega Superspeedway

Overview

TALLADEGA SUPERSPEEDWAY was created as a palace of speed in 1969 by NASCAR founder Bill France, Sr., who coined it “the Greatest Race Track in the World.” At a mammoth 2.66‑miles with 33 degrees of banking in the turns, it is NASCAR’s Most Competitive venue. The “Fun” track prides itself on being family friendly, especially with the introduction of the Talladega Garage Experience in 2019 where guests are immersed into motorsports like never before.

The host of two major NASCAR weekends a year, the iconic ribbon of asphalt is easily accessible off I‑20, located between Birmingham, AL, and Atlanta, GA.
