Bringing a new level of excitement to Freedom Friday on Sept. 13, the Big Machine Music City Grand Prix is partnering with Hy-Vee for the “Hy-Vee Battle On Broadway,” a pit stop competition in downtown Nashville featuring five of the fastest pit crews from the NTT INDYCAR SERIES.

The fourth annual Big Machine Music City Grand Prix race weekend kicks off with the action-packed Freedom Friday, a free event, where INDYCAR and country music stars converge for Nashville’s most thrilling street festival. The showdown begins as the Hy-Vee Battle On Broadway features world-class pit crews and their precision and teamwork as they compete to be the quickest crew. Teams will compete for a share of a $50,000 purse.

Hy-Vee, named one of America’s favorite grocery stores, is an employee-owned company with more than 570 business units across nine Midwestern states. In addition to its partnership with the Big Machine Music City Grand Prix, Hy-Vee is the title sponsor for the NTT INDYCAR SERIES doubleheader weekend at Iowa Speedway.

Following the Hy-Vee Battle On Broadway pit stop competition, the excitement continues with Burnouts on Broadway and Brantley Gilbert's “WORLD'S LARGEST ALBUM RELEASE PARTY,” presented by 1st Phorm Energy. Multiplatinum country-rock singer Gilbert will debut his new album, “TATTOOS.” The Freedom Friday concert honors members of the military, police, first responders and frontline heroes kicking off the fourth annual Big Machine Music City Grand Prix's festival of motorsports and music.

New for 2024, the Big Machine Music City Grand Prix is the season finale for the NTT INDYCAR SERIES and INDY NXT by Firestone and will take place Sept. 14-15 at Nashville Superspeedway.
