If you plan to arrive at the circuit with your own vehicle, it is strongly recommended that spectators arrive early, as a special traffic protocol will be in place, and traffic congestion is expected on the roads surrounding the circuit and in the parking areas. Limited free parking spaces will be available, but ticket holders are encouraged to use public transport and carpool to reduce congestion.
For spectators requiring accessibility support, designated parking spaces will be available in compliance with the disability parking permit.
Attendees are requested to use Exit 29B and follow the Spectators signs to reach the designated parking area.

Uber services will be permitted up to Lusail Metro - QNB Station (red line), and spectators will have to utilize the shuttle service from and to Lusail Metro - QNB Station. Uber will not be able to drop spectators at Lusail International Circuit.
Before entering the circuit, all attendees are required to undergo a security check to ensure the safety of everyone attending. It is essential to review the list of prohibited and restricted items before planning your arrival to avoid having any items confiscated. Restricted items will be safely stored in designated offices for collection after the event.
Furthermore, please ensure that your mobile phone is fully charged, and you have sufficient cellular data, as you will need to display your ticket's QR code at the venue gates and grandstand entry points. Ticket scanning is mandatory each time you leave the grandstand or the venue security perimeter to avoid re-entry denial.
All spectators holding a valid ticket will be able to access and enjoy post-race concerts. The concerts will take place in a dedicated concert arena, and attendees can conveniently access it through the Fan Zone.
Organizing teams and signs will be present to guide attendees in the designated areas seamlessly. Concerts are scheduled approximately 1 hour after the race activity, and the gates will open for attendees 30 minutes after the end of the track activity.
The Fan Zone promises to offer a delightful blend of F1 experiences, entertainment shows, activations, games, and activities suitable for families and children. Food and beverage vendors will also provide a wide variety of international and local flavours.
It is recommended that attendees wear comfortable shoes and stay hydrated, considering the length and expansive offering of the event.
For parents with children, consider heading to the Info Point located behind the Main Grandstand to obtain bracelets with your contact details labelled with them to facilitate the search for missing kids.
Please adhere to the no-smoking policy, as lighters are among the prohibited items. Smoking is permitted only in designated smoking zones and is strictly prohibited in grandstands, food and beverage areas, and certain activation areas.
