Portland International Raceway has found a winning formula for drawing crowds out to the track each summer. Formula E, in fact.

The international, all-electric racing championship was founded in 2014 and has since gained a worldwide following thanks to its nonstop, adrenaline-inducing action. Imagine drivers jockeying for position, and yes, occasionally crashing, on challenging courses around the globe.

Last year, the inaugural Portland E-Prix came to town. This Saturday, June 29-Sunday, June 30, the event is taking a second lap. In that spirit, fans can expect twice the entertainment at a doubleheader weekend featuring two qualifiers, two races, and two live music performances.

Guests will have access to the paddock, where drivers will be available for autograph sessions and meet-and-greets.
Exhibits in the kids' area designed to encourage their curiosity around innovation and sustainability. The FIA Girls on Track is an opportunity for ages 12-18 to gain an inside line on a future motorsports career.

In 2024, the stakes are amped up, as Portland is the last stop before Formula E's season finale in London this July. Tickets start at $20 for kids and $40 for adults.
