On-track activities guide at the Singapore Grand Prix
July 16, 2025
Purchasing tickets for a Formula 1 race can be both thrilling and perplexing. With a plethora of possibilities, it’s not always obvious what each ticket allows you to experience. Here’s a straightforward rundown of what’s included (and sometimes excluded) for the different types of F1 tickets, from General Admission to Hospitality packages.
The cheapest and most prevalent tickets are the general admission and grandstand options.
Tickets for General Admission allow access to the open public areas surrounding the track. Spectators can view the events from these spaces. However, areas are often first-come, first-served, making it necessary for viewers to arrive early to secure a good viewing spot. Some races offer grassy hills or bleacher-style zones that are effectively General Admission if you want to set up in a more vertical space.
Reserved Grandstand seating places you in a specific section of the track. At some races—especially smaller circuits without massive Grandstands—certain sections may feel more exciting than others, even if the crowds are smaller. Unless you’re in a Grandstand above the pits—where you’ll not only hear the roar of the action but also have access to big screens showing the full race feed, which many areas don’t offer. This is how you not only taste but also smell the high-octane atmosphere of Grand Prix racing.
Some circuits add benefits, such as concerts and live entertainment, to the extra fan zones they provide for the weekend. But this added value varies by event and isn’t always guaranteed, even in fan-favorite cities.
If you are a fan of F1, there is no reason why you should not enjoy the hospitality traced through the hierarchy of these much-sought-after global racing events. The sport is not only about the cars racing in circles—it also offers much in terms of the overall experience that goes with the weekend.
The Paddock Club is the number one hospitality experience in Formula 1. A Paddock Club ticket typically includes:
Depending on the race, prices can vary a lot, but you should budget for several thousand euros per day.
Just below the Paddock Club, the Champions Club packages provide excellent sightlines to the racing action, upscale hospitality, and even some Q&A time with racing insiders—without the kind of near-total exclusivity the Paddock Club has.
Certain packages are tied to individual teams (such as Red Bull or McLaren), offering a more branded experience that can include anything from team merchandise to very special garage tours, and even meet-and-greets with drivers.
In addition to F1’s official offerings, many races offer local hospitality options as well—think hotel lounges, rooftop viewing platforms, or yacht experiences (especially in Monaco). These vary widely in both quality and inclusions, but they often include food, drinks, and comfortable seating.
There are several things you will almost certainly not receive, even if you are the possessor of high-end tickets:
