Frequently Asked Questions

When is the Macau Grand Prix held?

The Macau Grand Prix is held annually in mid-to-late November, typically over a race weekend spanning multiple days of practice and racing.

Is the Macau Grand Prix circuit a permanent racetrack?

No, the Guia Circuit uses public roads that function as ordinary streets throughout the rest of the year, converted into a race circuit only for the event.

Do I need to book tickets in advance for the Macau Grand Prix?

Yes, grandstand seating sells out well ahead of race week, so booking in advance is strongly recommended for a good viewing position.
