Preparations are underway for the Formula 1 Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix 2023, which is set to take place from 3 to 5 March, including even bigger plans for entertainment on and off the track.

Formula 1 is one of the world’s most prestigious motor racing championships, and this year’s race is set to feature a special mix of the most exciting racing and off-track entertainment. Bahrain International Circuit (BIC) is the setting for the Grand Prix spectacle.

Major highways connect the track to the airport, with five-star hotels, beautiful coastlines, and city hubs easily accessible for tourists who are flying into the Kingdom to experience and enjoy the event, as well as what the country has to offer outside the races.

Car and motorsport enthusiasts will be flocking to BIC on 2 March to enjoy a close-up view of the F1 pit-lane. The Kingdom looks to boost its tourism sector and has planned for a larger surplus of entertainment.

Bahrain Grand Prix ticket-holders are excited following the announcement that DJ Snake, a French rapper who received widespread fame when he earned two Grammy Award nominations for his composition and production skills, will perform as the first act at F1 weekend.

DJ Snake has won numerous distinctions including the Top Dance Artist on the Billboard Music Awards in 2016 for his song ‘Lean on’, the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards for Best Direction for his song ‘Turn Down’, and the Best French DJ in 2018 at the NRJ Music Awards.

Throughout his career, DJ Snake has earned over 37 billion audio streams, more than 100 platinum single certifications internationally, and seven billion YouTube views. The Daily Tribune earlier reported that signs have pointed to an even bigger number of F1 goers at this year’s F1 Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix, as BIC Chief Executive Shaikh Salman bin Isa Al Khalifa said that the circuit has enjoyed record ticket sales from its Early Bird offers.

The Kingdom aims to promote and highlight Bahrain as an attractive tourist destination for visitors attending the F1 Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix 2023.
