One of Formula 1’s flagship races, the spectacular Singapore Grand Prix took the sport into a new realm. The series’ first night race around a perilous street circuit, with conditions pushing the drivers to the absolute limit.
Away from the circuit, the Grand Prix hosts the world’s biggest music acts in a post-race celebration, while fans enjoy the sights, food and culture of this city-state.
With the track taking over the streets of Singapore, the circuit utilises a number of pre-existing grandstands (including one of the biggest on the calendar) as well as pop-up structures.
As most fans recommend wandering from stand to stand and soaking up the different vantage points around the city, this guide will take you through the best stands at Marina Bay, and help you decide which ticket is best for you.

Note: You will notice that none of the grandstands are fully covered. Despite the normally tropical climate in Singapore, it has hosted wet races before. Such as in 2017, when the heavens opened and wreaked havoc at the start of the race. We recommend keeping an eye on the weather forecast, and packing a reusable poncho for any trip for the race.
