Tickets for the inaugural Spanish Grand Prix in Madrid went on sale to the general public on September 23. The general sale followed several pre-sale periods for holders of American Express cards and clients of Santander Bank. The organizers have utilized a form of dynamic pricing that has seen ticket prices increase markedly from the pre-sale phase to the general phase. Prices have also increased with successive ‘releases’ of tickets in the general sale, with second and third release tickets as much as 67% higher than the pre-sale. Please note that tickets are sold in several categories: Pelouse (General Admission), Bronze, Silver, Silver Plus and Gold. The Spanish Grand Prix in Madrid sells the sixth most expensive tickets of the season, according to our 2026 F1 Ticket Price Ranking. It’s also worth noting that hotel prices on race weekend in Madrid have also been very high, though it remains to see if fans are paying these inflated prices; perhaps prices will fall closer to race weekend.
