The 2026 Bahrain Grand Prix, which was scheduled on April 10-12, will not take place due to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.
With affordable race tickets and reasonably priced accommodation, the Bahrain Grand Prix is one of the cheapest destinations on the Formula 1 calendar. Whilst it is certainly possible to do Bahrain on a budget, spending can quickly add up if you eat at decent restaurants and drink alcohol, which is available but expensive. Tickets are now on sale for 2026. Whilst prices have risen slightly, Bahrain offers the calendar’s second cheapest race tickets according to our ranking of 2026 ticket prices.

Looking at the Russia-Ukraine war scene, is it safe to travel to Bahrain for Grand Prix !!
I think it’s fine to travel to Bahrain. The war in Ukraine is heartbreaking, but I don’t see any risk in travelling to Bahrain right now.
Hello Andrew,
For the upcoming race 2023 we have booked a whole weekend with 5 people total. We would like to spend the Thursday before for a pitwalk. Is this possible, where can we buy the tickets for the pitwalk.. ( 5 people ).
Greetings Peter.
Which race are you talking about? You commented on the Bahrain Grand Prix, but this race is already over for 2023 :) Once I know which race, I can give you a proper answer!
Hi I am thinking about going to the Bahrain GP. My wife and myself are both over 60 years old, how can we claim the 25% discount?
Thank you
David
Hello David, I don’t know of any discounts for those aged over 60 years old at this race. I should say that there are only limited tickets left, so I suggest securing your tickets as soon as possible.
Hi, I’m going to the 2025 Bahrain GP. We would like to spend the Thursday before for a pitwalk. Is this possible, where can we buy the tickets for the pitwalk?
You don’t need to buy separate tickets. Anyone with a 3-day ticket for the race can attend the pit lane walk on Thursday
