St Pete Grand Prix IHRA 2026
St. Petersburg, often called “St. Pete,” is a major coastal city on the Gulf of Mexico, defined by its massive urban waterfront and vibrant arts scene. The downtown area features the third-largest waterfront park system in North America, anchored by the St. Pete Pier, a 26-acre district with waterfront dining, a fishing deck, and a local marketplace.
The city is a central hub for Florida’s maritime culture, home to the St. Petersburg Municipal Marina and the historic Vinoy Resort. Visitors can explore world-class landmarks like the Dalí Museum and the Chihuly Collection, or take the free “Looper” trolley to the EDGE District for craft breweries and street murals. The nearby St. Pete Beach and Fort De Soto Park offer miles of white sand and protected waterways for boating and island hopping.
