BIC sells out Main Grandstand for F1
International Circuit (BIC), 'The Home of Motorsport in the Middle East', announced today that it has completely sold out all Main Grandstand seats for the Formula 1 Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix 2025. Less than 25 days remain until the Kingdom of Bahrain's most anticipated sporting and entertainment spectacle, taking place April 11-13 in Sakhir, and the excitement continues to build to all-time highs as the event approaches. BIC's Main Grandstand is the largest stand at the venue and holds a capacity of 10,500 spectators, offering some of the best views of the race weekend. It overlooks the F1 pit lane, the F1 teams' garages, BIC's main straight, the start and finish lines, and the winners' podium. The complete sell-out of the Main Grandstand follows BIC's announcement last week that it has also fully sold out the F1 Paddock Club and the circuit's Corporate Lounges for F1 weekend, setting the stage for yet another record turnout of fans. There is now only very limited availability for BIC's other grandstands, with Turn 1 and Beyon stands now over 95% sold, with low availability for University, and Victory grandstands. Fans who have yet to secure their seats are therefore urged to purchase theirs at the earliest to avoid missing out on this must-attend event. Hospitality options Some hospitality options remain but also with limited availability, as Paddock Club and Corporate lounges are already sold out. There is some availability in Champions Club and The Dome by F1 Experiences, both of which offer unique experiences to the race weekend. BIC is also offering a number of travel packages for the F1 Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix 2025 for fans wishing to attend from abroad. These have been curated in collaboration with Gulf Air Holidays and Bahrain Tourism and Exhibitions Authority. The packages offer a range of options, including return flights, hotel accommodations, grand prix tickets, and transfers – all at competitive rates. All those attending this year's F1 Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix will be able to enjoy non-stop action with F1 and its stellar support programme, as well as plenty of off-track attractions for the whole family. The entertainment will be headlined by a live performance from international dance music superstar Peggy Gou, who will be taking to the stage on the Saturday night of F1 weekend on 12 April. All those with tickets to the grand prix will be able to enjoy Gou's concert at no extra cost. Also, as major parts of this year's entertainment line-up, globally renowned act Circus Extreme is coming to BIC, the fan-favourite Ferris Wheel is back, a Kids Race Festival featuring popular characters such as Sonic the Hedgehog, Snoopy, Popeye Kids, and more will be on hand, as well as spectacular shows and an army of roaming entertainments. Meanwhile, a special charity auction has been launched by BIC to raise money for the Royal Humanitarian Foundation. With the generosity of many of the F1 teams, BIC has gathered an incredible selection of unique items of F1 memorabilia along with some amazing donations from Gulf Air.
