KICK-OFF CANADA DAY WEEKEND WITH KIDDIE RIDES FRIDAY NIGHT

(Halifax, NS - June 26, 2024) - That’s right, Kiddie rides are back for the first time this season at Scotia Speedworld this Friday night. Kiddie Rides are one of Scotia Speedworld’s most popular events where kids get the unique opportunity to go for a ride in a race car with their favourite driver! Following Kiddie Rides fans will be treated to an evening of high-octane racing from the Bay Equipment Rentals Weekly Racing Series. On track this week are the Bluenose Pools Bandoleros, Strictly Hydraulics Legends, Toursec Mini Stocks and the Maritime Auto Glass Sportsman.

The format for Kiddie Rides is simple and safe. Drivers bring their cars to the front stretch and park. Once all engines are stopped, the grandstand gate is opened, and children come onto the track and climb into their favourite car. When all children are safely in the cars, drivers are led around the track at a safe speed by the pace car. After a few laps, the cars are stopped; the children climb out and proceed back to their seats in the grandstand to enjoy the rest of the show.

Kiddie Rides start at 7:00pm sharp so be sure to arrive early.

Admission for the Bay Equipment Rentals Weekly Racing Series is $20 for adults, $5 for youth (8-15yrs), children seven and under are free all season at Scotia Speedworld! Grandstands open at 5:00PM, racing will commence as soon as Kiddie Rides are complete. For more information, please visit www.scotiaspeedworld.ca
