Manama, The Gulf Observer: Bahrain International Circuit – BIC, “The Home of Motorsport in the Middle East”, today announced that tickets for the 2023 Formula 1 Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix are completely sold out.

Following the exceptional demand during the sales period, the final grandstand tickets have now been snapped up by fans ahead of the hugely anticipated first race of the season this weekend at the Home of Motorsport in the Middle East, BIC said.

Ticket sales for 2023 have reached record levels across all areas. In addition to the complete sell out of all grandstands, Paddock Club, Dome Lounge and Corporate Lounges, BIC will welcome the largest number of international fans in its 19-year history, reflecting the continued appeal of the race across the world.

As the excitement for the race reaches fever pitch, lucky fans who have secured their tickets are set for a weekend of incredible racing and entertainment. The action gets underway on Thursday evening, with the pit walk offering all ticket holders the unique chance to get a view of the F1 garages and teams at work. This will take place at 7pm on Thursday, with gates open at 6pm.

As a result of the sell-out, BIC has issued the following important information for the 2023 event:

Please do not travel to the circuit this weekend unless you have a ticket or a confirmation for your tickets. There will be no tickets available for sale at any sales points.

Bahrain International Circuit urges fans not to purchase tickets from unauthorised sellers and BIC cannot take responsibility for tickets bought elsewhere. BIC reserves the right to refuse access if you are found in possession of a ticket not purchased via the authorised sellers or a forged ticket.

For those travelling to the circuit, due to the popularity of the event, fans are advised to arrive as early as possible, to avoid delays on entry. Fans should pay close attention to gate entry times, which are available on BIC’s website Bahraingp.com.
