According to our new analysis of 2025 Formula 1 tickets, prices in local currencies have risen year on year by an average of 5.4% (compared to 8.5% in 2024). Whilst prices have either remained either the same (especially at races with significant government funding) or risen more or less in line with inflation at the majority of races, we can observe large price hikes in local currencies at a handful of races, notably Australia, Hungary and Azerbaijan. Conversely, ticket prices have fallen substantially for the 2025 Las Vegas Grand Prix, though they do remain the most expensive tickets on the 2025 F1 calendar.

Demand Remains High, But Not Uniformly So

Demand for F1 tickets remains high, though well below post-pandemic ‘boom’ levels. The most in-demand tickets on the current calendar can be found in Australia, China, Canada, Austria, Hungary, Britain, Brazil and Abu Dhabi. Demand is less strong for the three races in the USA, notably Miami and Las Vegas. High prices are a large reason why tickets haven’t been selling so fast in the USA during the past few seasons, though ticket prices have come down significantly from their 2022-2023 highs. Local buyers in the USA have also realized they can save money by buying at the last moment and taking advantage of significant price discounts.

Increased Ticket Offer Complexity & Dynamic Pricing

We also observe that the ticket offer at many Formula 1 events is becoming more complex, which mirrors what is happening with ticketing for other major sporting events and concerts. Race promoters are looking to maximize ticket sales by introducing higher prices within each grandstand, e.g., for high seats with better views, or in sections with better views. This differentiation of ticket prices and categories within each grandstand is especially evident at the three races in North America. The controversial practice of dynamic pricing (which sees ticket prices rise due to higher demand at peak times) is also being used at an increased number of F1 events. Dynamic pricing has been used by the organizers of the British Grand Prix for the past few seasons, but was also introduced in Australia and Abu Dhabi in 2025.

For the purposes of this ranking, we’ve analyzed three common types of F1 tickets available at each race across the calendar; General Admission (the cheapest tickets available, which don’t offer a reserved seat), the cheapest available grandstand tickets (reserved seats), and grandstand seats opposite the pits and starting grid. To calculate the average price of 3-day tickets at each race, we’ve averaged the prices of the three ticket categories. Without detailed data for the number of tickets sold at each race in each grandstand, this average is only an estimate. Please be aware that ranking F1 ticket prices is not an exact science. Prices and exchange rates are subject to change. Scroll to the end of the article for more information about how these rankings were calculated.

China Sells 2025’s Cheapest F1 Tickets, Las Vegas Most Expensive 

At $193 USD, China continues to offer the cheapest average ticket prices on the 2025 F1 calendar. Other races with cheap average ticket prices include Bahrain ($274 USD), Brazil ($285 USD) and Japan ($305). It’s worth noting, however, that official tickets for the races in Shanghai and Sao Paulo (in particular) are snapped up very quickly by local buyers, forcing the majority of international fans into paying higher prices via international ticket sellers.

Hungary still offers the cheapest average ticket prices in Europe, but prices for the three ticket categories we have analyzed have increased on average by just over 50% in 2025. From offering the cheapest average ticket prices two years ago (and second cheapest last year), Hungary now offers the seventh cheapest average ticket prices. Forty years after joining the F1 calendar, the Hungaroring is undergoing major redevelopment work ahead of this year’s race, including the construction of new grandstands. The promoter has used this opportunity to raise ticket prices substantially. A lot of the increase in the average ticket price for this race can be explained by the fact that affordable ‘lower row’ tickets are no longer offered in the Hungaroring (previously Super Gold) grandstand opposite the pits and starting grid.

The average 3-day F1 ticket price across the 2025 calendar is $482 USD. This represents a 1.6% decrease over 2024 ($490 USD). When expressed in local currencies, prices for the three ticket types we have analyzed are on average 5.4% higher than in 2024.

At the other end of the scale, races with high average ticket prices include the United States Grand Prix ($685 USD), Mexico City Grand Prix ($688 USD), Miami Grand Prix ($750 USD) and the Monaco Grand Prix ($776 USD). Las Vegas continues to offer the most expensive average ticket prices on the current F1 calendar ($1,008 USD), despite average prices falling year on year by 37.6%.

Local Currency: Average F1 Ticket Prices 5.4% Higher in 2025

Formula 1 ticket prices have continued to rise in 2025 when expressed in local currencies, though at a lower level (5.4%) than in 2024 (8.5%). Comparing the three main categories of F1 tickets in our analysis, we can see General Admission ticket prices increasing at a lower rate (2%) compared to the price of the cheapest reserved seats (6.1%) and Main Grandstand seats (8.2%).

Ticket prices in local currency remained unchanged from 2024 to 2025 in China, Saudi Arabia, Belgium, Netherlands and Qatar, while prices were largely unchanged in Bahrain and Monaco. As we pointed out earlier, many of the promoters who kept prices steady for 2025 have less commercial pressure to increase ticket sales due to high levels of government support. Promoters in Italy (Imola & Monza), Spain, Austria, Singapore, Mexico and Brazil chose to increase local prices incrementally (by around 5-10% ), in line or slightly above current levels of global inflation.

Whilst advertised prices didn’t increase substantially in Australia, Britain or Abu Dhabi, the use of dynamic pricing makes it hard to determine the exact extent of price increases at these races. We can observe that the use of dynamic pricing in Australia saw grandstand ticket prices increase by as much as 55% over advertised levels. The largest official ticket price increases in 2025 can be observed in Azerbaijan, which saw an average increase of 40% on grandstand ticket prices, and Hungary, where prices for the three ticket types in our analysis increased on average by 51.4%.

The largest price reduction in local currency for 2025 is in Las Vegas, where average prices across the three ticket categories we analyzed fell by approx. 37% from last year’s levels. One major change leading to the steep reduction of grandstand ticket prices in Vegas this year is that stadium food and non-alcoholic drinks are no longer included in the ticket price. We also noted an average price reduction of 17.5% on tickets for the 2025 Miami Grand Prix.

General Admission F1 Ticket Prices 2025

Overall General Admission prices would have increased for 2025, were it not for the substantial reduction in the price of 3-day Flamingo General Admission tickets at the 2025 Las Vegas Grand Prix, which have fallen from $600 to $400 USD. The introduction of the Rocher area to Friday’s ticket offer at the 2025 Monaco Grand Prix has also seen a reduction in the overall General Admission ticket price of approximately 20%. The biggest price increases for General Admission tickets this year were in Hungary (25%) and Japan (33.3%), though it’s worth noting that GA tickets for both of these races still remain amongst the cheapest on the calendar.

The average price for 3-day General Admission tickets in 2025 is $226 USD, a 2.6% decrease from 2024 ($232 USD). In local currency, GA ticket prices have increased year on year by an average of 2%.

China continues to offer the most affordable General Admission on the 2025 F1 calendar, with 3-day access to three grassy areas at Shanghai International Circuit costing the equivalent of $66 USD. The next cheapest General Admission tickets on the calendar can be found at the 2025 Emilia Romagna Grand Prix, where 3-day access will cost you just over $100 USD. 3-Day General Admission tickets are still priced below $150 USD in Japan, Azerbaijan, Monza and Saudi Arabia. At the other end of the scale, General Admission access is most expensive at the North American races in Austin, Miami and Las Vegas ($389-430 USD), as well as at the British Grand Prix ($429 USD).

Please Note: 

Sometimes known as standing or roaming tickets, General Admission (GA) tickets offer the cheapest access to the circuit but without a reserved seat. It should be noted that the level and quality of access provided in General Admission areas varies considerably across the calendar. Some circuits offer access to various parts of the circuit with viewing platforms, while at other circuits you will be confined to a particular area or zone.

Advertised ticket prices for the Las Vegas Grand Prix do not include taxes or fees, which can add as much as 20% to the final purchase price.

GA tickets are not sold in Bahrain or Sao Paulo. For the purposes of this ranking, we provide instead the price of the cheapest grandstand ticket for these races.

Dynamic pricing is used in Britain. 3-day GA tickets have been priced from 269-379 GBP. For this ranking, we’ve used the midpoint value of 324 GBP.

GA (Park Pass) tickets for Australia are sold for four days, rather than three days.

Dynamic pricing was not applied to the sale of Park Pass tickets (Australia) or Abu Dhabi Hill tickets (Abu Dhabi).

Cheapest Reserved Seat F1 Ticket Prices 2025

Although prices for the cheapest grandstand at each race are virtually unchanged in USD from 2024 to 2025, we can observe some large price changes. The largest price increases of 33-35% were observed in Azerbaijan, Hungary and Australia. The largest price reduction in 2025 is in Las Vegas, where the cheapest grandstand seats at this year’s race are in the renamed Lewis Hamilton Grandstand (HG2) and cost $875 USD before taxes and fees, a 41% reduction from last year.

The average price for the cheapest 3-day reserved seats at each race in 2025 is $385 USD, a fall of 0.5% from 2024 ($387 USD). In local currency, prices for the cheapest grandstand tickets at each race have increased by an average of 6.1% from 2024 to 2025.

The cheapest 3-day grandstand seats in 2025 will cost you under $200 USD and can be found in Japan, Bahrain and Brazil. Other races offering cheap 3-day reserved seats include China ($203 USD), Hungary ($216 USD) and Monza ($238 USD). At the other end of the affordability scale, the cheapest seats are a lot more expensive in Miami ($670 USD), Las Vegas ($875) and Monaco, where you’ll spend $947 USD for three days in the X1 or X2 grandstands.

Please Note: 

At this price point, most grandstands are uncovered and more likely to offer bench (or bleacher) style seating rather than individual bucket seats. The cheapest grandstands at each race are also more likely to be located on a straight rather than a corner

Advertised ticket prices for the Las Vegas Grand Prix do not include taxes or fees, which can add as much as 20% to the final purchase price. Grandstand seats in Las Vegas no longer include stadium food and non-alcoholic drinks

Dynamic pricing is being used in Britain, but the price of the Farm Curve grandstand did not change before it was sold out

Due to dynamic pricing, the 4-day ticket price for the cheapest Button, Clarke, Waite and Webber grandstands in Australia ranged from $485-751 AUD. We’ve used the midpoint value of $618 AUD (Also note that grandstand tickets in Australia are sold for four days, rather than three days)

In Abu Dhabi, we have used the advertised ticket price for the North Straight Grandstand. (Only premium seats in the North Straight grandstand are subject to dynamic pricing)

Main Grandstand F1 Ticket Prices 2025

As we observed earlier, the largest price increase in 2025 for Main Grandstand tickets was in Hungary, where the Super Gold grandstand is being replaced by the Hungaroring grandstand in 2025. The removal of the much cheaper ‘low row’ tickets in the Main grandstand has seen the price for these seats in Hungary increase by a staggering 93.5%. In Australia, the official year on year price increase for Fangio tickets opposite the pits was only 7.8%, but the use of dynamic pricing saw these same tickets actually increase in price by as much as 55%. The price of Absheron A/B/D/E tickets in Azerbaijan has also been increasing substantially over the past few years, including a 40% hike this year. There was some better news for stateside fans, however, where prices for seats opposite the pits and starting grid fell substantially in both Miami and Las Vegas. Nevertheless, both grandstands remain amongst the most expensive on the entire 2025 F1 calendar.

The average price for 3-day Main Grandstand tickets in 2025 is $843 USD, a decrease from 2024 of 1.2% ($853 USD). In local currency, prices for Main Grandstand tickets have increased year on year by an average of 8.2%.

China continues to offer by far the cheapest seats opposite the pits and starting grid in 2025. 3-Day Grandstand A Low tickets in China were priced at only $321 USD. The next cheapest equivalent seats can be found in Bahrain ($478 USD), Australia ($506 USD) and Brazil ($538 USD). At the other end of the affordability scale, Main Grandstand tickets at seven races in 2025 are priced in excess of $1,000 for three days, including all three races in the USA, as well as Monaco, Azerbaijan, Singapore and Mexico. Despite a substantial reduction this year, Las Vegas still sells the most expensive seats opposite the pits, where you’ll pay $1,750 USD plus taxes and fees for a 3-day seat in the Heineken Silver Main Grandstand.

Please Note:

Main Grandstand seats are normally covered and are amongst the most expensive seats offered at each race, given that they offer views of both the pits and starting grid, as well as the podium ceremony

When there is more than one category of tickets in the Main Grandstand, we have chosen the cheapest tickets for the purposes of this ranking

Advertised ticket prices for the Las Vegas Grand Prix do not include taxes or fees, which can add as much as 20% to the final purchase price

Due to dynamic pricing, the 3-day ticket price for Hamilton B grandstand at Silverstone has ranged from 529-729 GBP. We’ve used the midpoint value of 629 GBP

Due to dynamic pricing, the 4-day ticket price for the Fangio grandstand in Australia ranged from $625-968 AUD. We’ve used the midpoint value of $796 AUD (Also note that grandstand tickets in Australia are sold for four days, rather than three days)

In Abu Dhabi, we have used the advertised ticket price for the Main Grandstand. (Only premium seats in the Main grandstand are subject to dynamic pricing.)

Grandstand seats in Las Vegas no longer include stadium food and non-alcoholic drinks

Due to the unusual track layout at Circuit de Monaco, the pits are not located opposite the starting grid. For this race we’ve chosen Grandstand T for this ticket category, as it faces the pits.

How F1 ticket prices were sourced and how these rankings were calculated:

Prices are for 3-day tickets, unless stated otherwise. 

Ticket prices have been taken from official sources (circuit or promoter website) and don’t include any transaction fees or taxes (if applicable). 

Regular ticket prices have been used for this ranking, rather than discounted or early-bird ticket prices that are offered for a limited period of time by some race promoters. For races which employ dynamic pricing, we’ve used mid-point prices.

Conversions from local currency to USD have been made at current exchange rates (April 2025). It’s worth noting that the USD has fallen against most major currencies in the weeks preceding the collection of this price data.
