How to Buy F1 Tickets for the 2025 Bahrain Grand Prix

Where to watch the action at Sakhir. The best grandstands tickets and hospitality suites at the Formula 1 Bahrain Grand Prix 2025.

Bahrain produces exciting racing under lights and with a low spectator capacity of approximately 30,000 fans, the trackside experience is relaxed and well organized. Choosing where to sit at Sakhir is easier than at most circuits; there’s just five different grandstands available. Prices remain relatively affordable, despite small price increases over the past few years. All grandstands are covered, but this is less of a factor now that most of the action in Bahrain happens at night, when temperatures are cooler.

Main Grandstand

As at most circuits, tickets in the Main Grandstand opposite the pits are the most expensive on offer at Sakhir. These are great for pits action, pre-race build up, the start and finish, but you won’t see much in the way of passing or other on-track action (see video above from the Main Grandstand). One advantage of the Main Grandstand in Bahrain is that the main fanzone is located directly behind. The main circuit gates and parking areas are also nearby.

Beyon Grandstand

The next most expensive tickets are in the Beyon Grandstand (previously known as Batelco). Beyon offers great views of Turns 7-10 and with lots of unobstructed views, Beyon is also best for amateur F1 photographers. If you want to meet drivers in Bahrain, this is the grandstand to choose because it provides access to the inner part of the circuit, near the pits and F1 Paddock. If you buy tickets for Beyon, you will have a much better chance of meeting the drivers as they arrive and depart the circuit.

Turn 1 & University Grandstands

The Turn 1 grandstand is located on the outside of the approach to the first corner at Bahrain International Circuit, and you will also get a more distant view of the cars going through Turns 2-3. Whilst the views are decent from Turn 1 grandstand, we’d argue that the views are actually better in the cheaper University grandstand, which is situated on the outside of the circuit overlooking Turns 2 and 3. University is comprised of three grandstands and is definitely the best choice for fans on a budget. The best spot to sit is at the top of University 2. One advantage of Turn 1 over University is that it is much closer to the main fan zone and concert stage, which is located behind the Main Grandstand (about 10 minutes walk from Turn 1 grandstand).

Victory Grandstand

Finally, the Victory Complex is another good budget option with two grandstands (each with their own big screen) located on the final few corners of the circuit. Victory 1 is better for Turns 11-12, whilst Victory 2 offers views of the final corner. Victory 2 is the better grandstand here, in our opinion, see video above. One downside of the Victory Grandstands is that they are some distance from all the activities in the fan zone, which is located behind the Main Grandstand. Whilst internal shuttle buses are available, it’s more hassle to get between these grandstands and the fan zone. A small concessions area is located behind the Victory grandstands, however.
