This new relationship will begin with select NASCAR and NASCAR team licensed merchandise in Walmart stores and grow in the future to include more merchandise and various sponsor products.
Participating Walmart stores will offer exciting merchandise such as T-shirts, racing flags, and tailgating food and beverages with even more selection of merchandise on Walmart.com/NASCAR. In addition, Walmart customers and NASCAR fans can save money by purchasing a discount ticket package available exclusively through Walmart.com/NASCAR for select NASCAR Sprint Cup Series races. Ticket packages include four race tickets, four hot dogs, four beverages and one race program for just $99, a savings of approximately $100.*
To help fans experience the thrill of racing, Walmart will also create NASCAR fan events at several stores in every race market throughout the season featuring real stock race car displays, special appearances by professional drivers, and racing simulator machines – perfect to safely get behind the wheel and feel the power of NASCAR.
“We know our customers are NASCAR fans, and we continue to look for ways to provide unforgettable family experiences as well as greater value in every aspect of their lives,” said Stephen Quinn, chief marketing officer, Walmart US. “We’re very pleased to introduce this program to our customers and help them save money while fully experiencing the excitement of NASCAR. “
“Millions of NASCAR fans eagerly await the start of the season and we are excited to get in high gear with this relationship with Walmart,” said Paul Brooks, senior vice president, NASCAR, president of NASCAR Media Group and a board member of the NASCAR Team Properties. “This program will allow us to get even deeper into product development over the coming years with Walmart helping us deliver exciting new products at affordable prices to our fans.”
The NASCAR Team Properties, which is open to any NASCAR national series race team that chooses to participate, explores merchandising opportunities in four key categories – apparel, collectable die-cast, toys and trackside retail. Team Properties currently consists of 11 teams, as well as NASCAR and represents more than 30 top drivers.
