One of the most immersive fan experiences in Formula 1 is the Singapore Grand Prix. It is, of course, a night race—and that adds to the ambiance—but what really differentiates the event is the sheer number of activities fans can enjoy during the day and between on-track sessions. Interactive installations, concerts, and brand activations fill multiple zones around the Marina Bay Street Circuit. Historically, it has delivered a true festival atmosphere.

Whether you're planning to attend or simply curious, this guide walks you through the types of on-track experiences fans have enjoyed in recent editions of the Singapore Grand Prix.

F1 fan zones: Where fans get hands-on

In different areas around the circuit—primarily in Zone 1 and Zone 4—there have previously been large fan zones packed with engaging, interactive displays. These have included:

  • F1 sim racing: Enthusiasts queued to drive virtual racecars around Marina Bay on high-end simulators, vying for the fastest lap times on leaderboards.
  • Pit stop challenge: Fans participated in mock tire-change challenges, racing against the clock to replicate the precision of a real F1 pit crew.
  • Car displays and exhibits: Real F1 show cars, helmets, and championship trophies were on display for up-close viewing.
  • Driver Q&As and autograph signings: Fans had opportunities to meet drivers or team members during scheduled appearances.

These activities often took place in the late afternoon and early evening, giving fans something to enjoy between the on-track sessions.

Team activations: Fan zones beyond the circuit

Teams such as Williams Racing have set up branded fan zones at off-track venues like Suntec City Mall. These pop-ups have featured:

  • Interactive simulators and esports rigs
  • Behind-the-scenes tech exhibits
  • Exclusive merchandise
  • Appearances by drivers or team representatives

These activations usually opened a few days before the race weekend, making them a fun destination for early arrivals in Singapore.

Live music and entertainment on circuit stages

The concert series has been one of the standout features of past Singapore Grand Prix weekends. Stages near the Padang and in Zone 1 have hosted a wide range of performers, from international headliners to local acts.

Artists like Red Hot Chili Peppers, Calvin Harris, Gwen Stefani, Westlife, and Muse have all performed in previous years. Shows typically took place before or after qualifying and the race itself. Fans with Zone 4 access have historically been able to enjoy the Padang Stage without needing an extra ticket.

Smaller stages around the park also hosted DJs, dance groups, and street performers throughout the day.

Circuit access after the race

In previous years, fans with tickets in certain areas—particularly Zone 1—were allowed to walk on the track after the final session. This included:

  • Access to the pit straight and podium area
  • Opportunities to walk through Turns 1 and 3
  • Photo ops on the finish line and near pit lane fencing

Access varied depending on ticket type and security arrangements, but this track walk has offered fans a memorable way to end their day at the circuit.

Side attractions inside the event space

The circuit park has also featured a range of other attractions, such as:

  • Craft and creative booths: Fans could make their own memorabilia or get creative with themed activities.
  • Family zones: Lighter games and activities were available for younger fans.
  • Brand pop-ups: Sponsored activations and local partnerships brought unique themed experiences to life.
  • Merchandise stalls: Spread throughout the venue, these offered official GP and team gear.

While the specific offerings have varied each year, the general layout and range of interactive experiences have remained consistent.

Why fans love the on-track experience

What makes the Singapore Grand Prix stand out—beyond the racing—is the emphasis on everything that happens around the cars. As a night race, the daytime is packed with activity. That means:

  • Plenty to do between sessions for both casual fans and diehards
  • Cultural and entertainment programming alongside motorsport
  • A festival-like atmosphere that lasts from gates open until long after the checkered flag

These extras have become a defining part of the event for many attendees.
