AUSTIN, Texas (March 26, 2014) – Circuit of The Americas (COTA) has partnered with GovX.com to provide discounts for military service members and first responders to the MotoGP Red Bull Grand Prix of The Americas, set for April 11-13. GovX.com is the largest e-commerce website for verified military and government members and their families offering exclusive savings on premium brands and sports and event ticketing.

“We are proud to support members of the Armed Forces and veterans at all motorsports events at Circuit of The Americas. Motorcycle racing is particularly popular with military families,” COTA Chief Marketing and Revenue Officer Geoff Moore said. “Partnering with GovX.com for the MotoGP race weekend and future events at COTA is a great way to show our appreciation for service members’ commitment and sacrifice. The special offer on three-day MotoGP tickets is also available to first responders—such as police officers, firefighters and EMS officials—who keep our communities safe every day.  COTA is proud to celebrate these heroes and their loved ones by offering them three days of MotoGP action and entertainment at a very affordable price.”

GovX Executive Chairman and Founder Tony Farwell added, “Every day, military service members and first responders, along with their families, sacrifice so much for all of the rest of us; it’s a special honor to bring them together with Circuit of The Americas to convey the community’s collective gratitude for their service.”

Children ages 12 and under receive free general admission with a ticketed adult.  So, in combination with COTA’s military and first responder discount, a family of two adults and two children ages 12 and under can enjoy an entire race weekend for only $118!
