Where to Find Visitor Information for Woodburn Dragstrip

Updated

Woodburn Dragstrip's official site (woodburndragstrip.com) has a dedicated Visitor Info section that gathers the practical details you need before attending — food, seating, tickets, driving directions, local hotels and restaurants. The homepage also points you to a synced Google calendar for event schedules and gate-opening times. Use these two entry points together: the calendar for when to go, Visitor Info for what to expect once you're there.

What the Visitor Info Section Covers

The site's "Know Before You Go" block links to a Visitor Info page described as covering:

  • Food options at the track
  • Seating
  • Tickets
  • Driving directions
  • Local hotels and restaurants

This is the single place the site directs you to for pre-trip planning, so start there rather than hunting through individual event pages.

Checking Event Dates and Gate Times

The homepage's "Stay Up to Date" section says all you need to know about upcoming events — including when the gates open — is available by syncing the track's Google calendar. The site also lists Upcoming Events directly on the homepage.

Practical approach:

  1. Check the Upcoming Events list for the date you're considering.
  2. Sync the Google calendar to confirm gate-opening times, which the site says are published there.
  3. Cross-check the Visitor Info page for tickets and seating before you commit.

The season runs March to October, per the site's own description, so plan around that window.

Getting There

The site provides specific directions from Interstate 5:

  • Take the Woodburn Exit (#271) and go west for about 1½ miles.
  • You'll pass through a roundabout — stay in the right lane to continue to the track.
  • After crossing the railroad tracks, the dragstrip is on your left, immediately past the Woodburn Golf Course.

Returning toward town, stay in the left lane through the roundabout to continue straight into Woodburn or turn left at the signal for the outlet mall.

What to Expect at the Track

The site describes ¼-mile drag racing with cars running 100 to 300 mph, and pitches the venue as family-friendly — from Jr Dragsters up to Jet Cars. Visitor reviews quoted on the homepage mention a food stand and bleachers, and describe the staff as friendly and accommodating. One reviewer notes traveling five hours for an annual show, which is a useful signal if you're weighing a longer drive.
