DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (January 24, 2024) – It’s the fastest way to bet and the only legal way to bet on sports in Florida. Daytona International Speedway announced today a partnership with Hard Rock Digital to make its Hard Rock Bet platform the Official Sportsbook for The World Center of Racing and an Authorized Gaming Operator of NASCAR.

The partnership brings together two globally recognized entertainment leaders to engage fans with on-site activations at the re-named Hard Rock Bet Fanzone and unique ‘money can’t buy’ experiences like pace car rides and behind-the-scenes event access. For the first time, fans in the stands will also be able to wager on NASCAR action unfolding live in front of them and 20+ other sports legally on Hard Rock Bet while rooting on their favorite drivers.
“Our fans are some of the most enthusiastic when it comes to representing their favorite drivers and now, they can take that passion even further,” said Frank Kelleher, President of Daytona International Speedway. “Between the Rolex 24 At DAYTONA, The DAYTONA 500, Bike Week Presented by Monster Energy and so much more, fans will be able to engage with them all in the Hard Rock Bet Fanzone right here at The World Center of Racing.”
The Hard Rock Bet app is available for download in the App Store and Play Store, and a web sportsbook experience can be accessed at HardRock.bet. New online players that sign up will receive a No Regret First Bet up to $100, providing up to $100 back in bonus bets should their first wager lose. With a 4.9-star rating, Hard Rock Bet is one of the highest rated online sportsbooks with an easy-to-use app, quick sign-up, fast deposits and withdrawals, boosts, and free online loyalty rewards.
“Just like Daytona International Speedway, Hard Rock Bet is built for speed with fast sign-ups, quick deposits and withdrawals, and rapid bet placement to get players in on the action,” said Marlon Goldstein, CEO of Hard Rock Digital. “We’re thrilled to partner with DIS to engage and entertain its dedicated worldwide fanbase like no one else can at the Hard Rock Bet Fanzone and on the Hard Rock Bet app on race weekends.”
Fans can first experience the Hard Rock Bet Fanzone during the upcoming Rolex 24 At DAYTONA, the season opener for the IMSA WeatherTech Championship.
The action begins as the drivers in the Mazda MX-5 Cup and the Michelin Pilot Challenge fight for the top spots on Thursday, Jan. 25 and Friday, Jan. 26. Then, fans will see drivers from all over the world prepare for 24 hours of nonstop racing, running from Saturday, Jan. 27 through Sunday, Jan. 28, in the historic Rolex 24 At DAYTONA.
Less than a month later, fans in Florida will be able to wager on the DAYTONA 500 (Sunday, Feb. 18 on FOX) for the first time.
