In a historic first for Tennessee, Major League Baseball’s inaugural Speedway Classic at Bristol Motor Speedway on August 2, 2025, is on pace to shatter the regular‑season attendance record. With over 85,000 tickets already sold, this marks the first MLB regular‑season game ever played in the state and is expected to exceed the previous high of 84,587 fans, set in 1954 . Located in a NASCAR venue seating up to 146,000, Bristol has been transformed with a temporary baseball diamond, grandstands, 124,000 sq ft of AstroTurf, a massive videoboard, and a vibrant fan zone complete with music and a Ferris wheel to deliver an unforgettable experience . A major league matchup featuring the Atlanta Braves vs. Cincinnati Reds has fans across all 50 states (and beyond) clamoring for tickets—and the spectacle is only just beginning 🎉 .
