As the Grand Prix Association of Long Beach works to find an alternate date for the postponed April 17-19 NTT IndyCar Series and IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship event held on its beachside city streets, ticket holders for the race weekend have been asked to remain patient as solutions are explored.
“In light of the announcement from the City of Long Beach prohibiting all large-scale events in the City through April 30, 2020, the Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach will not take place as scheduled on April 17-19,” the promoter stated on its official website. “While we recognize that this is a serious inconvenience for our loyal attendees, sponsors and other clients, nevertheless, this action is consistent with our primary objective of assuring the public’s safety and well-being at our event.
“We are in conversation with the City of Long Beach, various race sanctioning bodies and the Long Beach Convention Center to discuss the viability of rescheduling this event at a later time in the year. If that is not possible, then we look forward to presenting the Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach on April 16-18, 2021. Further details about possible refunds or credits will be forthcoming.”
Circuit of The Americas, host of the the final race within the March-April IndyCar cancellations, has yet to publish information on its ticket policy. RACER understands news of COTA’s ticket handling plans is forthcoming.
