Substantial government funding allows the promoter of the race at Lusail Circuit to keep ticket prices affordable, and ticket prices have remained unchanged at recent edition of the race. Qatar Grand Prix tickets are the fourth cheapest of the season, according to our 2026 Formula 1 Ticket Price Ranking. Good quality accommodation is readily available in Doha at relatively affordable prices. As with most races in the Middle East, however, prices for hospitality suites at Lusail Circuit are higher than average.

Do you have any tips and recommendations on how to meet the drivers to take pictures or have their merch signed? I’m going to the Qatar Grand Prix and will be watching from the North Grandstand!!!
I think we need to wait for more information, but there should be some kind of appearances by the drivers on the stage in the Fanzone. As Qatar is not likely to have a large attendance, I think there’s a good chance that the drivers will also sign some autographs during this appearance. Otherwise, I’m not sure if you will be able to get to the area where the drivers arrive/depart the circuit to meet them there. As for where the drivers will stay, I’m not sure. But probably at the best hotels in the Lusail district.
