Irondale is about to pick up some serious speed. Popular indoor go-karting brand K1 Speed has announced plans to open its second Alabama location right here in Irondale.
The new facility, set to open soon, will bring the brand’s signature all-electric go-karts, professionally designed tracks, and high-energy atmosphere to our community. K1 Speed is known nationwide for delivering a fun and competitive racing experience for drivers of all ages — from family outings and birthday parties to corporate team-building events.
This marks an exciting milestone for Irondale, as it joins Hoover as one of just two Alabama cities to host a K1 Speed. According to the company, guests can expect more than just racing. The Irondale location will feature a lounge-style atmosphere, food and beverage options, arcade games, and space for private events.
K1 Speed first launched in California in 2003 and has since expanded to more than 70 locations across the U.S. and internationally. You can learn more about the company at k1speed.com.
We’ll share updates on opening dates and special events as soon as they’re announced — stay tuned, Irondale!
