SINGAPORE: Formula One fans will be able
to get their hands on tickets to Singapore's first-ever Formula
One Grand Prix by the end of the year.
Corporate ticket sales will begin on 28 November, while public
ticket sales will start in mid-December.
Singapore Grand Prix, the organiser of the race, said ticket
prices would be kept affordable to ensure that many people would
be able to enjoy it.
Responding to Channel NewsAsia, Singapore GP, which controls
100 percent of the hospitality rights, said the cheapest ticket
is likely to be around S$50 for the trial races.
During the actual race day, tickets will cost around S$100.
And for the exclusive paddock area, tickets will cost a whopping
S$6,000 to S$7,000 each.
Singapore GP said it is fine-tuning the details, adding that
mid-range packages would be made available.
These packages could include exclusive use of sky lounges for
companies.
There could even be an outdoor party, similar to a mini Zouk-Out,
within the circuit park.
Some 80,000 to 90,000 people are expected to get a taste of
the F1 action in Singapore.
