Here’s what we’d do
Choose which COTA session the group actually wants before buying transport or admission. The operator lists October 22–25 for its 2026 event program; that range doesn't mean every ticket includes every day. Start with the exact session and ticket type.
How to make it happen
Go at your own pace.
- Before inviting
Choose the practical details
Compare official admission, parking and shuttle options, then obtain each person's agreement to the full cost.
- The shared part
Give the activity room
Use one arrival plan and a meeting point that still works if phones or queues slow the group down.
- A good ending
Finish at the agreed pace
Agree on an exit and reunion plan before the event begins.
Choose your version

Is this your kind of plan?
A race-viewing gathering at home. Lower travel commitment, but each viewing setup needs legitimate broadcast access.
- This is a dated 2026 planning reference. Recheck session times and ticket inclusions with COTA; no inventory is guaranteed.
- Confirm the date, meeting point or call link, and spending with everyone before committing.
