A range of children’s attractions has been lined up at this year’s Formula 1 Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix taking place at the Bahrain International Circuit (BIC) in Sakhir later this month.
The sporting extravaganza is being held at the ‘The Home of Motorsport in the Middle East’ from April 11 to 13 under the slogan ‘The Desert Never Sleeps’.
The race marks the fourth round of the 2025 FIA F1 World Championship, and it will be celebrating the 75th anniversary of both F1 and the national carrier and grand prix title sponsor Gulf Air.
The highlight of the events lined up for the younger ones is the Kids Race Fest.
Children will be able to race their way through an action-packed weekend with stage shows, interactive activities and exclusive meet-and-greet opportunities with some of their favourite characters including Cartoon Network icons, Sonic the Hedgehog, Batwheels, PJ Masks and Popeye, among others.
Meanwhile, a special charity auction has been launched by BIC in the lead-up to F1 weekend, aiming to raise money for the Royal Humanitarian Foundation.
With the generosity of many of the F1 teams, BIC has gathered an incredible selection of unique items of F1 memorabilia along with some amazing donations from Gulf Air. The auction is now live and will continue until race day on April 13. It can be accessed on the mazad.app under the ‘BIC Memorabilia’ category.
Fans can also enjoy all that is on offer at the Beyon Money BIC Fan Village, open every day, from 1pm to midnight on weekends and 6pm to midnight on weekdays, at Block 338 in Adliya, until April 9.
Entrance to the village is free of charge, and it is a celebration of motorsport as it brings the spirit of F1 Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix to the public, in the heart of Bahrain’s capital.
All grandstand tickets have already been completely sold out, including seats at the Main, Turn 1, Beyon, University and Victory grandstands.
Fans who have missed out on these seats can still get tickets to BIC’s last remaining hospitality option, The Dome by F1 Experiences. There is limited availability.
