“Spend less and do more.” That’s the wallet-friendly concept behind the “Sweet Home Alabama” all-in-one tickets, summarized by the Alabama Tourism Department as “admission to some of the best attractions and tours in the state, all for one low price.”
The “Birmingham-Area Multi-Attraction Ticket” is available in one-, two-, or five-day packages, and all three options include admission to the Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum. In 2011, the department awarded the museum “attraction of the year.”
Follow the LINK IN BIO to purchase the ticket that best suits your plans. We look forward to welcoming you at the front doors of the museum and sharing the world`s largest collection of motorcycles and Lotus race cars, among many other unique displays.

Kenny Roberts is still winning, more than 40 years after he hung up his helmet and steel shoe. Earlier this year, “King Kenny Roberts,” a documentary highlighting the world title-winning careers of Roberts and eldest son Kenny Jr., earned bronze Telly Awards in three categories: General Documentary: Short Form; Craft Editing; and General Branded Content.
Narrated by actor Ewan McGregor, the 16-minute film was produced by Draft, a creative agency based in Knoxville, Tennessee, in collaboration with the Roberts family, Goodwood Media, Yamaha, and the Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum. The film premiered at the 2024 Barber Vintage Festival in conjunction with the unveiling of the “World Champions” exhibit.
Founded in 1979, the Telly Awards honor excellence across all types of screens, both on and offline. Thousands of entries are received annually and reviewed by executives from television networks, production companies, agencies, immersive content studios, and streaming platforms around the world.
Draft also produced the 2023 film, “Garden of Speed: Barber Motorsports Park & Museum.” Built by George Barber in 2003, the museum and park are considered the largest philanthropic project undertaken by any individual in the history of Alabama. To watch “King Kenny Roberts,” follow the link in our bio.

Carl Fogarty is typically remembered, rightly so, for winning four FIM Superbike World Championships in 1994, 1995, 1998, and 1999—all on booming Ducati V-twins. Prior to his dominating performances on the 916 and its derivatives, however, the Blackburn-born Brit tallied three consecutive TT Formula 1 titles on Honda RC30s.
Why the history lesson? Well, the Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum recently acquired the very machine on which Fogarty won the 1988 and ’89 TT F1 crowns. In those days, the Isle of Man TT was part of the TT F1 series, and Fogarty won the 1989 750cc Production race on a second RC30 that was part of the same sale.
According to Fogarty, who previously owned the championship winner, the No. 4 RC30 is fitted with a full race kit. Both Hondas are currently in the museum’s restoration shop undergoing thorough cleaning and inspection in advance of their display, which will coincide with the 20th annual Barber Vintage Festival on October 3-5.

Reminder: The 20th annual Barber Vintage Festival is less than two months away. The legendary Eraldo Ferracci will serve as grand marshal for the October 3-5 event, which promises many fun-filled experiences, including BMW Motorrad Days Americas, Isle of Triumph, demo rides, and new-product reveals.
Last year, more than 500 vendors took part in the vintage motorcycle swap meet. A short walk from the museum, the swap meet is an irresistible gathering of machinery, difficult-to-find parts, and historic memorabilia that draws builders, collectors, racers, and the simply curious from all corners of the world.
Racing fans will be treated throughout the weekend to AHRMA competition on Barber Motorsports Park’s 17-turn, 2.38-mile road course, as well as at the dedicated flat-track and motocross venues. The festival has a free-entry policy for children 15 years of age and under with a ticketed adult.
Follow the link in our bio to buy tickets to the 2025 Barber Vintage Festival at Barber Motorsports Park. Volunteer opportunities are available throughout the weekend. Note: Admission to the Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum requires a separate ticket that can be purchased on-site.

If you could drive or ride three of the thousands of cars and motorcycles displayed in the Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum for three laps of the 17-turn, 2.38-mile Barber Motorsports Park road course, which machines would you choose and why would you choose them?
To get things rolling, so to speak, we asked Executive Director Brian Case, who has contributed both two- and four-wheel projects of his own design to the museum, for his favored trios.
Cars:
🏎️ 2024 Porsche 911 GT3 RS Weissach, because there is no substitute.
🏎️1984 Lotus 95T “John Player Special,” because of the iconic livery and the 760-horsepower turbocharged V-six.
🏎️1959 AC Aceca, because I love the classic shape of early ACs, especially the coupe.
Motorcycles:
🏍️ 1996 Britten V1000, because John Britten’s story had so much influence over me in the beginning of my motorcycle design career.
🏍️ 1992 Honda NR750, because it has oval pistons, it is one of only 300 produced, and it was not available in the U.S.
🏍️ 2020 Ducati Panigale V4 R raced by Scott Redding in WorldSBK, because it has 240 horsepower!
