Motor Speedway</a> in <a href="/wiki/Speedway,_Indiana" title="Speedway, Indiana">Speedway, Indiana</a>. The inaugural race was held in <a href="/wiki/1994_Brickyard_400" title="1994 Brickyard 400">1994</a> and was the first race other than the <a href="/wiki/Indianapolis_500" title="Indianapolis 500">Indianapolis 500</a> to be held at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway since 1916. In its inaugural running, the Brickyard 400 became NASCAR's most-attended event, drawing an estimated crowd of more than 250,000 spectators. The race also paid one of NASCAR's highest purses. From 1994 to 2020, the race was held on the 2.5-mile oval, for a distance of 400 miles. The race was put on hiatus for three years (2021–2023) in favor of the <a href="/wiki/Verizon_200_at_the_Brickyard" title="Verizon 200 at the Brickyard">Verizon 200 at the Brickyard</a> which was run on a <a href="/wiki/Oval_track_racing#Combined_road_course" title="Oval track racing">combined road course</a> and run a distance of 200-mile (321.869 km).

When the race course opened in August 1909, the track surface was crushed stone and tar. That poor surface was the cause of numerous and sometimes fatal accidents, so the track was subsequently repaved with 3.2 million <a href="/wiki/Brick" title="Brick">bricks</a>. Over time the bricks were paved over with asphalt, and now only a one-yard strip of bricks at the start/finish line remains exposed. </p><p>From 1994 to 2017, the event was held on the first weekend of August, or the last weekend of July.

After initially hosting <a href="/wiki/Indianapolis_Motor_Speedway_race_results#Automobile_races_–_oval" title="Indianapolis Motor Speedway race results">multiple race meets</a> in 1909–1910, it became a tradition that the Indianapolis 500 would be the only race held at the track annually.

At its inception, the "400 Festival", a local civic organization (similar to the 500 Festival in May), was founded to promote the event and organize various events in around the community in the days leading up to the race. After a handful of years, the 400 Festival disbanded. Since the 2000s, the annual Hauler Parade now kicks off the race weekend. The teams <a href="/wiki/Semi-trailer_truck" title="Semi-trailer truck">transporters</a> parade into the Town of Speedway, and the participants take part in an interactive fan fest with spectators. </p><p>Several of the key features of the Indy 500 pre-race traditions were dropped or tweaked. The <a href="/wiki/Purdue_All-American_Marching_Band" title="Purdue All-American Marching Band">Purdue band</a> was omitted, in favor of other schools from the state (<a href="/wiki/Indiana_State_University_Marching_Sycamores" title="Indiana State University Marching Sycamores">Indiana State</a> and <a href="/wiki/Indiana_University_Marching_Hundred" title="Indiana University Marching Hundred">Indiana University</a>). The song "<a href="/wiki/Back_Home_Again_in_Indiana" title="Back Home Again in Indiana">Back Home Again in Indiana</a>" was decidedly not included, however, <a href="/wiki/Jim_Nabors" title="Jim Nabors">Jim Nabors</a> was invited in 1994 to sing the national anthem. Unlike the Indy 500, a celebrity pace car driver is seldom used in NASCAR, and one was not used for the first many years of the Brickyard 400. In more recent years a ceremonial pace car driver has been added. <a href="/wiki/Chevrolet" title="Chevrolet">Chevrolet</a> has been the exclusive provider of the pace car (or pace truck) for all editions from 1994 to 2020. </p><p>In a slight contrast to the Indy 500, many of the national anthem performers invited have been from <a href="/wiki/Country_music" title="Country music">country music</a>, as a gesture to NASCAR's ties to the <a href="/wiki/Southern_United_States" title="Southern United States">south</a>. It also reflects upon one of the event's longtime sponsors - <a href="/wiki/Big_Machine_Records" title="Big Machine Records">Big Machine Records</a>. <a href="/wiki/Contemporary_Christian_music" title="Contemporary Christian music">Contemporary Christian</a> singers have also been invited several times. Traditions that were kept include a <a href="/wiki/Balloon_release" title="Balloon release">balloon release</a>, a <a href="/wiki/Flypast" title="Flypast">flyby</a>, and an <a href="/wiki/Invocation_(NASCAR)" class="mw-redirect" title="Invocation (NASCAR)">invocation</a> (The last two are part of most NASCAR events). Rev. Howard Brammer of Traders Point Christian Church conducted the invocation for every Brickyard 400 from 1994 to 2019, differing from the Indy 500, where the <a href="/wiki/Archbishop" title="Archbishop">Archbishop</a> of the <a href="/wiki/Roman_Catholic_Archdiocese_of_Indianapolis" title="Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Indianapolis">Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Indianapolis</a> is normally invited.
