The 2025 Singapore Grand Prix will bring the usual mix of on track action and off track events that F1’s original night race has become renowned for since making its first appearance in 2008. The 20 drivers began racing on a revised layout of the Marina Bay Street Circuit in 2023, owing to renovation works on the foreshore. The revised layout will be retained for 2025.

The Singapore Grand Prix is always well-attended, with a record 302,000 fans packing into the track for the first post-pandemic race weekend in Singapore in 2022. Attendance dropped in 2023 – less seats were available due to the renovation work – but tickets still sold out. A sell-out crowd nearing 270,000 fans attended the 2024 Singapore Grand Prix across three days. Read on for tips and advice to get the most out of your visit to the 2025 Singapore Grand Prix!

How to Get to Singapore & Marina Bay Street Circuit

Singapore’s Changi Airport, recognized as one of the best airports in the world, is a major hub with direct flights to 150 destinations in 40 countries. It couldn’t be easier to fly into Singapore for race weekend, and the experience is just as easy after you arrive, with reliable taxis, ridesharing and public transport to get you from airport to hotel.

With Marina Bay Street Circuit located in the city centre, it couldn’t be easier to get to the track. We recommend using the metro (MRT) for getting around during your weekend at the Singapore Grand Prix. You can find further advice on getting to and from the track, along with general advice about ride sharing, taxis and public transport, in this post: How to Get to Marina Bay – 2025 Singapore Grand Prix

Where to Stay for the 2025 Singapore Grand Prix

If you can stretch your budget, there’s some exception hotels within walking distance of the Marina Bay Street Circuit. The most popular hotels with the teams, some of which are very close to the pits and paddock, include Ritz Carlton Millenia, Pan Pacific Singapore and the Mandarin Oriental.

Other recommended areas still within walking distance of the circuit (or an easy metro ride) include Clarke Quay and Chinatown. The area around Orchard Road is also home to many good hotels, as well as the city’s biggest and best shopping malls. Provided you are close to a metro stop, most central areas of Singapore are worth considering as your base for the Singapore Grand Prix. Learn More: Where to Stay for the 2025 Singapore Grand Prix

Attendance Nears 270,000

The Singapore Grand Prix had been ranking within the top five best-attended races of the season before it was suspended due to the coronavirus pandemic. When it returned in 2022, it dropped to the ninth best-attended race of the year. However, the number of attendees increased in 2022 compared to 2019. While 268,000 passed through the circuit gates over the 2019 Singapore Grand Prix, the figure rose to 302,000 in 2022 – the highest number in the event’s history.

Since 2019, worldwide interest in the sport has increased and attendance figures have grown across the board. Prior to 2022, the Singapore Grand Prix last attracted in excess of 300,000 spectators in its inaugural year. Attendance at the event fell in 2023 as a result of the construction work around the circuit. However, the final weekend attendance figure still exceeded organiser’s expectations, with over 264,000 fans attending.

Attendance rose again at the 2024 Singapore Grand Prix, with 269,072 fans through the gates over three days. The 2024 event was the 15th anniversary of the popular night race. At the moment, the Singapore Grand Prix is the eleventh best attended race of the 2024 season.

How Much Does it Cost to Attend the 2025 Singapore Grand Prix?

The Marina Bay race has never been one of the cheapest to attend. Of the 24 races in 2024, the Singapore Grand Prix ranks as the seventh most expensive when it comes to the average price of three-day tickets. If you fancy a view of the pit lane and starting grid or opening corners from your grandstand, tickets will set you back over $1,000 USD on average. They’re the sixth most expensive tickets of this type in the 2024 season, behind only Monaco, Mexico and F1’s three American races.

We estimate that the average fan will spend approx. $2,640 SGD ($2,050 USD) on a trip to the 2025 Singapore Grand Prix. That figure includes 3-day grandstand seats, a 3-night stay in a hotel and daily spending money.

Trackside at Marina Bay Street Circuit

Be prepared for hot and humid weather for the Grand Prix weekend, but don’t be surprised if you’re caught in a seasonal downpour. Recent editions of the race have not been without sudden tropical rains, notable in 2017 and 2022.

Formula 1 is not the only single-seater series on offer at the Singapore Grand Prix. Support categories have not yet been announced for 2025, but this year the all-female F1 Academy raced in Singapore for the first time, alongside the Porsche Carrera Cup Asia series. Furthermore, the F1 drivers make an appearance in the popular Fan Forum on the Wharf Stage in Zone 1 on Friday and Saturday.

Big-Name Trackside Concerts

There’s always a wide range of musical acts performing across multiple stages during the Singapore Grand Prix weekend, which adds considerably to the festival atmosphere of the event. This year, Lenny Kravitz headlined after the race on Sunday, while Kylie Minogue took to the stage after qualifying on Saturday night and OneRepublic headlined Friday. Further sets from The Corrs, Disclosure, Kelis, Dean Lewis and Tones & I also took place across the Padang, Downtown and Wharf stages. If you want a good spot for one of the headline concerts, you may have to sacrifice watching some of the on-track action; a minor flaw of the tight scheduling on an otherwise unforgettable weekend! Performers and concert headliners for the 2025 Singapore Grand Prix won’t be announced until closer to race weekend.

Take in the Off-Track Sights in Singapore

The Singapore Grand Prix became an instant hit when it joined the calendar in 2008 as the sport’s first night race dazzled spectators. The rather unique feature of the on-track action being in the evening gives those attending the perfect opportunity to check out what the city has to offer (or sleep in), before heading to Marina Bay for a night full of racing thrills and spills.

There are a wide range of activities to enjoy in Singapore, be that shopping or eating in the bustling city centre, or taking time out at the beach and enjoying the natural surroundings of this compact Southeast Asian city state. The party doesn’t have to stop when the racing does – Singapore has a thriving nightlife, if you have the stamina for it!
