Indoor Kart Racing Birmingham: Epic Racing Sessions
The karts here are genuinely fast for an indoor track.
Epic Karting in the Centre of Birmingham is an indoor kart racing activity where you drive one of Europe's fastest indoor karts through three 10-minute races in a single session. The venue sits in Birmingham city centre with free parking, a licensed bar, and conference rooms for group events. You arrive 30 minutes before your booked time, receive a safety briefing, and get all equipment—race suit, helmet, gloves—provided; children can join from age 8.
The Experience
Teamworks Karting Birmingham runs the same format every day of the week: a safety briefing, then three back-to-back 10-minute races that add up to 30 minutes of actual driving time. The karts themselves are the draw—they're among the fastest you'll find indoors in Europe, which means the racing stays competitive even if everyone in your group is new to it. You pick your session time (off-peak on Monday, Wednesday or Thursday, or peak slots Friday through Sunday at 4pm, 5pm or 6pm), and the whole thing, from arrival to leaving the track, takes about 75 minutes.
The venue handles groups of all sizes, from a couple of friends to corporate teams and stag or hen events. It has three conference rooms that fit between 20 and 150 people, a fully licensed bar, and catering available—so if you're bringing a larger group, you can book racing time and then move into a separate space for food and drinks without leaving the building. Free customer parking means you don't hunt for a spot in the city centre.
Arrive 30 minutes before your start time. That buffer covers the safety briefing, getting into your race suit and helmet, and any last-minute questions before you're in the kart. The track runs every day, so you can book around your schedule rather than waiting for a weekend slot.

Is this one for you?Book an off-peak weekday session (Monday, Wednesday or Thursday at 4pm) if you want a less crowded track and lower prices; peak Friday-to-Sunday slots fill faster and cost more but let you race when most groups are available. Either way, the 30-minute format works for a quick adrenaline hit or as part of a larger group event without eating up your whole day.
Traveler reviews
Top questions
What do I actually do during the 30 minutes of karting time?
You drive three separate 10-minute races back-to-back on the indoor track. Each race is timed, so you're competing against the clock and the other drivers in your group—it's not a parade lap.
Do I need to bring my own racing gear or helmet?
No. Teamworks provides everything: race suit, helmet, and gloves are all included. You just need to arrive in clothes you can move in.
Can I bring children, and how old do they need to be?
Children can race from age 8 onwards. Younger children can come along to watch and use the bar and conference facilities, but they won't be able to drive the karts.
What time should I arrive if I've booked a 5pm session?
Arrive at 4.30pm. The 30-minute buffer covers the safety briefing, getting suited up, and any questions before your racing starts at 5pm.
Is there parking at Teamworks Karting Birmingham?
Yes, free customer parking is available on site, so you don't need to pay or hunt for a street spot in the city centre.
Can I book this for a group event like a stag do or corporate team day?
Yes. Teamworks handles group bookings of all sizes and has three conference rooms (for 20–150 guests), a licensed bar, and catering available, so you can combine racing with food and drinks in one venue.
