British Grand Prix

Silverstone is the heart of Formula 1 and a true British institution. The track offers high-octane wheel-to-wheel action thanks to some of the best high-speed corners in the world, like the slaloming Maggots and Beckets and the flat-out Copse Corner.

The host of the inaugural World Championship Grand Prix in 1950, Silverstone offers an electric atmosphere and a crowd full of knowledge and passion for F1 racing. The British Grand Prix is the single biggest sporting event in the UK, and with hospitality facilities that are second to none, it is undoubtedly one of the best F1 races to experience in VIP hospitality!

Monaco Grand Prix

No Formula 1 season is complete without a trip to the Circuit de Monaco. Monte Carlo provides a glamorous backdrop like no other, with superyachts filling the Port Hercule, located directly next to the track. The narrow streets and claustrophobic barriers provide drivers with a daunting challenge, requiring ultimate precision, every single lap.

Our hospitality packages for the Monaco Grand Prix offer an unrivalled raceday experience. Enjoy a 3-night stay in a 4* hotel in Nice or Cannes with transport to Monaco for each day of racing you attend. Watch all of the on-track action from the panoramic Grandstands T or K, or enjoy a terrace in the Beau Rivage offering unmatched views of the circuit’s first corner, Saint Devote.

Suzuka International Racing Circuit, the host of the Japanese Grand Prix, is one of the most technically challenging tracks on the F1 calendar. Its unique “figure-of-eight” layout creates fast, flowing corners that push the drivers and their cars to their very limits.

Japan boasts some of the most passionate Formula 1 fans in the world.

Canadian Grand Prix

The Circuit Gilles Villeneuve has been a mainstay on the Formula 1 schedule for almost 50 years. The circuit has a layout which encourages plenty of overtaking. It is most well known for the exit of its final chicane, the infamous ‘Wall of Champions‘. It was dubbed as such because three world champions, Michael Schumacher, Damon Hill, and Jacques Villeneuve, all crashed into the wall at the final corner’s exit in the 1999 Grand Prix.

The circuit is located on the scenic Île Notre-Dame in Montreal, and the whole city comes alive with a vibrant ambience during race week. Enjoy a mix of high-intensity action on the track and a welcoming, luxury atmosphere off it when you attend the Canadian Grand Prix in premium hospitality.

Belgian Grand Prix

The legendary Spa-Francorchamps is often cited by Formula 1 drivers as their favourite track to race on. The longest circuit on the 2026 calendar, at just over 7km, Spa’s intense elevation changes and the unpredictable nature of the Ardennes weather have created some of the most dramatic races in F1 history.

The most famous and perhaps most difficult section of the track is Eau Rouge and Radillion corners. After negotiating the first corner, drivers are met by a blind, uphill climb with a swooping left and right turn. With our Belgian Grand Prix hospitality, you’ll experience the Grand Prix like never before. Soak in the electric race-day atmosphere unique to Spa and enjoy the finest views of the action.

Singapore Grand Prix

The Singapore Grand Prix is the original Formula 1 night race. The Marina Bay Street Circuit offers a truly unmissable spectacle with the tight, demanding track glowing under the floodlights, and Singapore’s illuminated skyline providing a stunning horizon.

Singapore is widely considered the most punishing race in F1. Humidity levels can reach close to 90% with cockpit temperatures exceeding 60 degrees Celsius. Add to this a tight circuit with no high-speed sections, and drivers need to be at their absolute peak, physically and mentally. Elevate an already extraordinary weekend with a luxury hospitality package for the Singapore Grand Prix!

The Interlagos track features banked corners, creating challenging camber changes. However, the circuit also encourages plenty of overtaking with a mix of high, medium, and slow speed corners for drivers to tackle.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is typically included in a VIP F1 hospitality package?

While specific inclusions vary by circuit and package, most premium hospitality experiences offer prime trackside viewing, gourmet dining, and a complimentary bar featuring beers, wines, and soft drinks. Many also include exclusive extras such as pit lane walks, driver appearances, and luxury transfers to the circuit.

How far in advance should I book F1 hospitality for the 2026 season?

Because the best F1 races to experience in hospitality are in high demand, we recommend booking 9 to 12 months in advance. Popular races like Silverstone, Monaco, and the season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix often sell out their premium suites well in advance of the race weekend.

Is it better to book a full weekend or a single day of hospitality?

This depends on your goals. A three-day package is ideal for those who want the full immersive experience, including practice and qualifying sessions. However, for groups looking for maximum value, a Sunday-only race day package provides the peak excitement and the most value for focused entertainment.
