Hot Wheels Ultimate Drive-Thru will open weekdays and weekends throughout its 4-week run at Toyota Arena parking lot, with flexible pricing ($45-$60) for online and on-site ticket purchasing. The experience takes approximately 30 minutes from admission at the ticket booth to the exit of the drive-thru.

We attended the media preview just prior to opening to the public and here are our thoughts/highlights/tips.

  • Buy your tickets online and save $10 vs gate price.

  • Bring snacks and drinks as none are sold on site surprisingly.

  • Experience is 1 mile long and takes approximately 1hr 15 min to complete.

  • Be sure to scan the QR code you'll get upon arrival for audio soundtrack.

  • 2 Large photo opps are digital, you'll get 1 free. You will have option to buy both at $5 each.

  • If you have boys, this is definitely an event to consider.

  • Every car receives a 3 pack of Hot Wheels. Other Hot Wheels merchandise packages are available to pre-order and pick up on arrival.

  • Kids can play along with the "I Spy Challenge"

  • Event best experienced after dark!

Vehicles were well displayed but there were a few that needed more light. The "Light Tunnels" were really cool to drive thru. Overall if you have a car lover, Hot Wheels fan or Monster Trucks enthusiasts this is a cool and laid-back event to attend. We saw many people enjoying the event by standing up inside their vehicles and looking out their sunroof. Entire Drive Thru experience takes aprox. 1 hour 15 minutes to complete.
