The Australian dollar has been relatively weak against major international currencies in recent years, making the race at Albert Park a cheaper proposition for fans traveling from overseas. The Australian Grand Prix also represents very good value for money when considering the high overall standard of accommodation, circuit organization and service levels. On the downside, ticket prices have been increasing in recent years due to very high demand. For 2025, the Australian promoter implemented dynamic pricing for the sale of race tickets, which increased ticket prices even more when ticket sales were launched. According to our 2025 Formula 1 ticket price ranking, Australia is the eighth cheapest race to attend on the current calendar. The cheapest four-day reserved seat at Albert Park costs 11% of the average net monthly wage in Australia. Compare the weekend cost across the 2025 F1 calendar here.

Are these prices per person? Have been looking at hospitality experiences but no where does it tell you if the pricing is per person
Yes F1 pricing – either for grandstand or hospitality – is always per person
The F1 experiences sold out quick, are most taken by resellers , travel agents to resell as packages?
Yes, they did Peter. Sorry if you missed out. I think there’s a few factors here. Biggest is that these packages went on sale before the general release of tickets for the Australian GP. So the demand is even higher. Secondly, I do work for the F1 Experiences brand and know that they have a big network of sales agents in Australia. I’d say this network was responsible for most of the sales yesterday. Keep an eye out though, as I think some more packages will be added.
