RV camping near Canadian Tire Motorsport Park
The Castrol Victoria Day SpeedFest fills the Victoria Day long weekend in mid-to-late May with three days of racing at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park's legendary Grand Prix circuit in Bowmanville, Ontario. The schedule blends the NASCAR Canada Series with Radical Cup Canada, the Toyo Tires F1600 Championship, and other regional series, plus a marketplace of vendors and food trucks, a Canadian Tire Fun Zone for kids, and a Saturday night beer garden with live music. Spring weather in this part of Ontario tends to be mild and changeable, so layers and rain gear are worth packing alongside sunscreen. The weekend traditionally closes with a fireworks display over the circuit, a fitting send-off to the unofficial start of racing season.
Just about an hour east of Toronto, Bowmanville makes an easy long-weekend escape, and the track's on-site camping means you can settle in without hunting for a hotel room. Options range from open-field tent sites to RV spots near the skidpad and Turns 2 and 2a, so renters can choose a comfortable home base a short walk from the paddock. Traveling by RV means you set your own schedule, arriving early for practice sessions and staying late for the fireworks without racing back to a hotel across town. Your rental gives you your own bed, a kitchen, and a bathroom right at the track, which turns a long day of racing into a relaxed weekend rather than a rush. Parking your RV trackside also puts you in the middle of the camping community that has grown up around SpeedFest, complete with fellow race fans, tailgate cookouts, and shared excitement between sessions. For a group splitting the cost of the trip, an RV bundles travel and lodging into one, making a full weekend of racing more affordable than separate hotel stays and daily drives.

Canadian Tire Motorsport Park, Clarington, ON, CA
Driving in from Toronto, the most direct route follows Highway 401 east through Bowmanville before turning north onto Highway 35 toward the circuit. Watch for signs directing race traffic onto Concession Road 10, which leads straight to the Canadian Tire Motorsport Park main entrance, and give yourself extra time since SpeedFest weekend brings steady traffic along this stretch. RV drivers arriving for camping should follow the marked camper routes rather than general parking lanes, and expect to be held in a staging area if you arrive before the campground gates open. Once inside, camping traffic is directed toward the general camping areas near the skidpad and Turns 2 and 2a, or into the Family Area by the karting track. Take the approach slowly on event mornings, since fans, shuttles, and golf carts share the internal roads with camper traffic. Arriving a day early, if your schedule allows, gives you first pick of trackside camping spots before the busiest race day crowds arrive.

Frequently asked questions about renting an RV for Castrol Victoria Day SpeedFest
When does the Castrol Victoria Day SpeedFest take place, and how many days does it run?
Good news, this is an easy one to plan around: the Castrol Victoria Day SpeedFest runs every year over the Victoria Day long weekend in mid-to-late May, giving you three full days of racing at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park. Friday through Sunday typically covers practice, qualifying, and race day for series like the NASCAR Canada Series and Radical Cup Canada, so you can plan an RV trip around the whole weekend or just the biggest race days. Exact dates are confirmed each year on the official CTMP event page, so bookmark it once the schedule drops. Pro tip: booking your RV rental early for the long weekend means you lock in a rig before the holiday rush fills up availability around Bowmanville.
canadiantiremotorsportpark.com/pages/castrol-victoria-day-speedfestHow much does it cost to attend, and where do I get tickets?
You do not have to guess here: weekend passes and single-day options are both sold directly through the official Canadian Tire Motorsport Park site, with pricing tiers for general admission and upgraded experiences like the Grand Prix Club. Kids 16 and under get in free with a ticketed adult, which makes this an easy long weekend for families traveling together in an RV. Advance pricing tends to be friendlier than at-the-gate pricing, so locking in your pass before the long weekend is worth doing once dates are posted. Pair that with an RV rental and you are covering travel, lodging, and race admission in one trip, which keeps the whole weekend simple to budget for.
canadiantiremotorsportpark.com/pages/castrol-victoria-day-speedfest-event-informationWhat is the easiest way to drive an RV to Canadian Tire Motorsport Park, and is there RV parking?
Driving in is more straightforward than it looks: take Highway 401 east from Toronto, then head north on Highway 35 and follow the signed route onto Concession Road 10, which leads straight to the main entrance in Bowmanville. RV and camper traffic is directed to dedicated camping areas near the skidpad, Turns 2 and 2a, and the Family Area by the karting track, separate from day-visitor parking. If you arrive before the campground gates open, you will be held briefly in a staging area, so build a little cushion into your drive time on race weekend. Arrive early on the first camping day for the best pick of trackside spots before the crowd builds.
canadiantiremotorsportpark.com/pages/castrol-victoria-day-speedfest-event-informationWhat actually happens at the Castrol Victoria Day SpeedFest besides the racing?
There is plenty here beyond the start line: the weekend headlines the NASCAR Canada Series alongside Radical Cup Canada, the Toyo Tires F1600 Championship, and other regional series, so you get a full mix of racing styles across three days. Off track, the CTMP Marketplace brings vendors and food trucks, the Canadian Tire Fun Zone keeps younger fans entertained, and Saturday night's beer garden features live music before the long weekend traditionally closes with a fireworks show over the circuit. Full paddock access lets you get close to teams and drivers between sessions. Plan to spend full days trackside, since the schedule runs from morning practice through evening entertainment.
canadiantiremotorsportpark.com/pages/castrol-presents-victoria-day-speedfest-event-scheduleWhat is the weather like, and what should I pack for the weekend?
Late spring in this part of Ontario is genuinely pleasant for a race weekend, though it is worth packing smart rather than assuming sunshine straight through. Days in mid-to-late May typically run mild, while mornings and evenings at the track can turn cool, so layers, a light rain jacket, and comfortable closed-toe shoes cover most conditions. Sunscreen and a hat matter too, since you will spend long stretches trackside with little shade. Traveling in your RV makes packing easy since extra layers, camp chairs, and rain gear simply ride along with you instead of filling a suitcase. A folding canopy or awning setup at your campsite gives you shade or shelter no matter what the sky does that day.
Is the SpeedFest weekend suitable for kids and families?
Families are genuinely welcome here, not just tolerated: children 16 and under are admitted free when accompanied by a ticketed adult, and the Canadian Tire Fun Zone is built specifically for younger fans. Full paddock access also means kids can get an up-close look at race cars and meet drivers between sessions, which tends to be a highlight for young motorsport fans. The open camping areas give families room to set up a home base with an RV, keeping naps, meals, and downtime close to the action instead of far away in a hotel. Bring earplugs or noise-reducing headphones for younger children, since trackside sound levels get loud during racing.
canadiantiremotorsportpark.com/pages/castrol-victoria-day-speedfestCan I bring my own food, and what is available to eat on-site?
You will not go hungry either way: the CTMP Marketplace brings a rotating lineup of food trucks and vendors throughout race weekend, and a Saturday night beer garden adds drinks and live music into the mix. Camping guests can also cook at their own site, since small fires are permitted unless a local fire ban is in effect, which makes RV travel especially convenient for grabbing your own meals between sessions. Bringing a cooler and simple groceries in your RV kitchen saves both money and time compared to lining up at every meal. Just plan to pack out what you bring in, since campsite cleanliness is part of what keeps this camping tradition going year after year.
canadiantiremotorsportpark.com/pages/castrol-victoria-day-speedfestAre all RV types allowed at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park, or are there size restrictions?
Most RVs are a welcome sight here: the camping areas near the skidpad, Turns 2 and 2a, and the Family Area by the karting track accommodate everything from tent trailers to full-size motorhomes without a strict size cutoff. Because sites are dry camping with no electric or water hookups, self-contained rigs with their own water and power tend to have the easiest weekend. Generators are allowed between 8am and 11pm, which covers most RV needs for keeping the fridge and lights running. If you are renting a larger rig for the first time, check current event-specific camping guidelines on the official CTMP site before you book so you can plan your site and generator use with confidence.
canadiantiremotorsportpark.com/pages/campingCan I have an RV delivered near Canadian Tire Motorsport Park instead of driving one myself?
Skipping the drive is absolutely an option worth exploring: search RVezy for Bowmanville, Ontario with delivery enabled to see which local hosts can bring a rig directly to you rather than you picking one up. Delivery availability shifts with each host's calendar and location, so searching close to your SpeedFest dates gives you the clearest picture of what is available near the track. If nothing comes up right in Bowmanville, widen your search to nearby Ontario communities, since many hosts in the Greater Toronto Area deliver well beyond their home base for race weekends. Booking early gives delivery hosts more time to coordinate drop-off and pickup around your camping site, so start your search as soon as your dates are set.
rvezy.com/rv-search?SearchAddress=Bowmanville, Ontario&DeliveryCan I camp on-site at the track with my RV during the SpeedFest weekend?
Yes, and it is one of the best parts of the weekend: Canadian Tire Motorsport Park offers on-site camping ranging from open fields to treed backwoods spots, with RVs welcome in the general camping area by the skidpad and around Corners 2 and 2a. These are dry campsites without hookups, but there are two full-service washroom and shower locations, one in the infield near the paddock and another by the Canadian Tire Bridge close to Corner 8, so first-timers can set up close to those for convenience. A designated grey-water disposal area in the infield keeps cleanup simple. Reserve your spot early since trackside camping is part of what makes SpeedFest a tradition for returning race fans every year.
canadiantiremotorsportpark.com/pages/campingAre there hotels or other lodging options near the track if I do not want to camp?
You have options beyond the campground: Bowmanville and the surrounding Clarington and Durham Region area offer a range of hotels and motels within a short drive of Canadian Tire Motorsport Park, with more choices available in nearby Oshawa and Whitby. Most sit within 20 to 30 minutes of the circuit, which keeps your commute manageable if you would rather sleep off-site. That said, many returning fans choose RV camping specifically to cut out that daily drive, since parking a rented rig trackside means you wake up minutes from the paddock instead of stuck in long weekend traffic. Compare both options against your group's plans, since camping tends to suit multi-day race weekends best.
destinationontario.com/en-ca/attractions/canadian-tire-motorsport-parkWhat accessibility options are available for visitors at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park?
You are not left to guess on this one: Canadian Tire Motorsport Park's guest services team can walk you through accessible parking, viewing areas, and washroom locations when you contact them ahead of your visit. Reaching out before the long weekend, rather than on arrival, gives staff time to help plan your day around the accessibility features you need. Traveling by RV can also help here, since your rig gives you a private, accessible space to rest between sessions without needing to leave the grounds. Call or email the track directly using the contact information on their official site to confirm current accessibility services before SpeedFest weekend.
canadiantiremotorsportpark.com/pages/castrol-victoria-day-speedfest-event-informationWhat should first-time visitors know before attending the Castrol Victoria Day SpeedFest?
First trip to SpeedFest is genuinely exciting, and a little planning makes it even better: arrive early on your camping day since fans setting up before gates open are held in a staging area until camping officially opens. Bring earplugs, sunscreen, and layers, since trackside noise and spring weather both shift quickly across a three-day weekend. Full paddock access is one of the event's best features, so budget time to walk through and meet teams between races rather than only watching from the stands. Free fan shuttles circle the circuit, so you do not need to move your RV once it is parked. Settle into your site early and you will have the rest of the weekend to enjoy the racing without rushing.
canadiantiremotorsportpark.com/pages/castrol-victoria-day-speedfestWhat safety rules and campsite policies should I know before arriving with an RV?
Nothing here should catch you off guard: small campfires are allowed at your site unless a local fire ban is in effect, dogs must stay leashed with owners cleaning up after them, and you should keep your RV and vehicles locked with valuables out of sight when you step away. Fans arriving early with tents, trailers, or RVs before gates open are held in a staging area and must stay with their vehicles until camping officially begins. These policies exist to keep the whole camping community comfortable and safe across a busy long weekend. Following them is simple and lets you focus on enjoying the racing instead of worrying about your site.
canadiantiremotorsportpark.com/blogs/faq/can-i-camp-at-the-trackHow does RVezy support me if something goes wrong during my SpeedFest trip?
Renting for a big race weekend feels a lot less stressful when you know help is close by: RVezy backs every booking with customer service, protection plan options, and a mobile app that lets you message your host, check trip details, and get support from wherever you are camped at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park. If an issue comes up mid-trip, whether it is a question about your rig or a change of plans, RVezy's Help Center walks you through next steps and connects you with support. That safety net means you can focus on the NASCAR Canada Series action and fireworks instead of worrying about the what-ifs. Book with confidence and enjoy the SpeedFest weekend knowing support is a message away.
