Color Throwing at Cheekwood
Color packets are included in the price of admission. Every ticket holder will receive a pass to be redeemed for one packet of color. Color packets will only be available at the start of each Color Throw and must be used when received.
Please Note: While the color powder is non-toxic and environmentally friendly, the powder will be thrown and potentially may get in eyes and/or mouths. Most of the color powder will shake off or wash off, but it may discolor clothes and/or cloth automobile seats. Only the powder provided by Cheekwood may be used. Preferred color cannot be guaranteed.
No entry into the mansion permitted if you have taken part in the color throwing.
