FORMULA 1 ROLEX AUSTRALIAN GRAND PRIX 2023

OVERVIEW

The Formula 1 Grand Prix event in Melbourne is renowned for its impressive infrastructure and meticulously crafted event build.

Each year, the Albert Park Lake precinct undergoes an extraordinary transformation as it prepares to host one of the most exhilarating motorsport races in the world. In 2023, the event surpassed all expectations, boasting the largest attendance in history and smashed the record-breaking numbers of 2022, with an incredible 444,631 fans across the four days!

The track layout was strategically planned to provide thrilling overtaking opportunities and showcase the skills of the drivers, who, along with their teams, thoroughly enjoyed their time down under. Additionally, the event build encompassed a vibrant and bustling atmosphere, featuring fan zones, entertainment stages, and food precincts that catered to the diverse categories of race-goers.

To accommodate the anticipated huge crowd, extensive efforts were made to ensure a seamless experience for all attendees. We focused on strategically planning cohesive egress points, providing extra amenities, and establishing ample food and beverage outlets to ensure everyone got the most out of their Formula 1 experience.
