The festivities kick off on Thursday, May 1 and Friday, May 2 at the 500 Festival Mini-Marathon Expo. All Mini-Marathon and 5K participants will pick up their race-day materials at the event. Those materials include a bib/timing device, participant shirt and gear check bag. Participants must have their bib number (found in the April confirmation email) to receive a packet. NOTE: Packet pickup is not available the morning of the race. You must have a photo ID to look up your bib number at the Expo. You may pick up a packet for a friend if you have their bib number and a copy of their photo ID. The Expo is located at Lucas Oil Stadium in the North Exhibit Hall. The Expo opens May 1 from 4 - 8 p.m. and May 2 from 10 a.m. - 8 p.m. MORE: https://www.wthr.com/article/news/community/500-festival/maps-times-closures-2025-iu-health-500-festival-mini-marathon-registration-time-wave-finish-results-winners-course-parking-start-finish-line-schedule/531-f3950cfd-50fd-4137-9b39-d34cf05a6497
