01 / The experience

Blanton Museum of Art

The Blanton is a practical indoor choice near the Capitol and Bullock Museum. Use it as the main visit on a city day or as the weather fallback when a regional drive no longer makes sense.

The museum is closed Mondays, opens 10:00–17:00 Tuesday–Friday and Sunday, and stays open until 20:00 Saturday. Wheelchairs are available first come, first served; accessible routes, lifts and restrooms are provided. Check the calendar for special closures before travelling.

Editorial notes & sources

Programme and transport reviewed 13 October 2026 against Formula 1, F1 Academy and COTA. The series timetable resolves both Academy race times; two Porsche race times remain pending because official sources conflict. Sunday final shuttle departure and exact Friday/Saturday headliner starts remain unpublished. Current 2026 grandstand accessibility is distinct from older ADA route guidance. Thursday access, concert upgrades and track access are separate decisions.

Dining expansion reviewed 13 October 2026; other venue information reviewed 12 October 2026. Ordinary opening hours do not confirm race-week availability. Duration allowances are editorial suggestions; prices and booking conditions are controlled by each venue.
