Cheapest F1 Races to Attend in 2027, Ranked

Updated · Ticket prices last checked 29 September 2026

The cheapest F1 race to attend in 2027 is the Chinese Grand Prix in Shanghai: general admission cost about $55 (₹4,500) in 2026, and a 3-night weekend on the ground comes to roughly $855 (₹70,900) before flights. Next are the Hungarian Grand Prix ($975) and the São Paulo Grand Prix ($980) — though São Paulo sells no general admission, so its figure is the cheapest grandstand.

Most promoters haven't published 2027 prices yet, so the tickets below are 2026 prices. Expect 2027 to cost the same or more: Melbourne's 4-day GA has already gone up A$40 for 2027.

Every 2027 race, ranked by weekend cost

Weekend = cheapest 3-day ticket + 3 nights race-week hotel + food & local transport, one person, before flights. Hotel is a race-week estimate.

3 ways to cut the cost of an F1 trip

  • 1.Book hotel early. GP-week hotel prices are 3–5x the normal rate. The best rates go months before the event — often when tickets first go on sale. Waiting until 8 weeks out usually means paying double.
  • 2.Fly mid-week. Friday arrivals and Monday departures are significantly cheaper than Thursday–Sunday. If the circuit is near a major rail hub, trains often beat flights on price and convenience.
  • 3.GA over grandstand. At most races, general admission is a fraction of grandstand prices and still gets you trackside. Hungary and Austria have some of the best GA viewing on the calendar. At Interlagos there is no GA, so budget for a grandstand.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Which F1 race is the cheapest to attend in 2027?

The cheapest F1 race to attend in 2027 is the Chinese Grand Prix in Shanghai: general admission cost about $55 (₹4,500) in 2026, and a 3-night weekend on the ground comes to roughly $855 (₹70,900) before flights. Next are the Hungarian Grand Prix ($975) and the São Paulo Grand Prix ($980) — though São Paulo sells no general admission, so its figure is the cheapest grandstand. 2027 prices aren't out for most races yet, so this ranking uses 2026 ticket prices, last checked 29 September 2026.

How much does an F1 race weekend cost?

On the ground — a 3-day GA ticket, 3 nights of race-week hotel and food and local transport — from about $855 at the Chinese Grand Prix to $3,205 at the Monaco Grand Prix. Flights come on top and depend on where you fly from. Hotel figures are race-week estimates for one person in a room; sharing roughly halves that line.

Are 2027 F1 tickets on sale yet?

Only for a few races. British GP tickets went on general sale on 24 September 2026, with 2027 GA from £70 for Thursday and £299 for Sunday. Australian GP tickets go on sale on 6 October 2026, with 4-day GA at A$425. Most other promoters have a waitlist open but no prices yet.

Which F1 races have no general admission?

São Paulo and Sakhir appear to sell grandstand seats only, so the ticket figure in the table is the cheapest grandstand rather than GA. Everywhere else, GA is the cheapest way in — but it means no reserved seat, so arrive early for a good spot.

How much is the cheapest F1 ticket in Indian rupees?

General admission at the Chinese Grand Prix was about ₹4,500 in 2026 — the cheapest GA ticket on the calendar. Converted at 1 USD ≈ ₹83; Indian cards usually add a 3–5% forex fee on top. For reserved grandstand prices at every race in INR, see our F1 ticket prices in Indian rupees guide.

What does the weekend budget include?

The cheapest 3-day ticket (GA, or the cheapest grandstand where there is no GA), 3 nights of hotel at race-week rates (typically 3–4× normal), and daily food and local transport. It leaves out flights, which the region ranking further down adds for Europe, North America, Asia-Pacific and the rest of the world.
