MOTORSPORT – BAHRAIN International Circuit (BIC), ‘The Home of Motorsport in the Middle East’, announced yesterday the launch of its Early Bird offer with an incredible 20 per cent discount on tickets to the 2026 edition of the Bapco Energies 8 Hours of Bahrain.
The Le Mans-inspired spectacle will be taking place on November 6 and 7 of next year as the eighth and final round of the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC).
It will mark yet another thrilling ending to endurance racing’s biggest and most popular series, with the WEC’s 2026 champions in the Hypercar and LMGT3 classes being crowned in Sakhir.
BIC’s Early Bird promotion is available for a limited time only and its launch follows the massive success of this year’s WEC race, held at BIC less than a fortnight ago with record crowds attending. Fans are therefore invited to purchase their tickets as early as possible to take advantage of this limited-time discount.
Tickets to next year’s Bapco Energies 8 Hours of Bahrain are originally priced at BD11 for adults, inclusive of VAT, but with the Early Bird discount cost just BD8.8 per person for two days of top-class racing and entertainment. Tickets for children aged 12 and younger cost BD5.5 apiece.
WEC is one of the most prestigious series in all of motorsport and yet again Bahrain will be hosting the season finale, where world champions will be crowned.
Tickets can be bought online at bahraingp.com or by calling the BIC Hotline on +973-17450000.
The Bapco Energies 8 Hours of Bahrain in 2026 will be the 15th WEC race in Sakhir. It will also be the eighth time it is being held in its current eight-hour format, which is unique on the WEC calendar as the only race of this duration.
The 2026 WEC season gets underway in March in Qatar, and will feature races in Italy in April, Belgium in May, France in June, Brazil in July, and the US and Japan in September before heading to Bahrain.
