Jeddah to Host F1 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix for Fourth Straight Year

by Eddie Rayner

For the fourth year in a row, the Formula 1 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix will be held at the Jeddah Corniche Circuit. The race is scheduled for 7-9 March 2024 and will see changes to its previous weekend format, taking place on Saturday night to avoid a potential clash with the start of the holy month of Ramadan.

Commenting on the announcement, Prince Khalid Bin Sultan Al Abdullah Al-Faisal, Chairman of the Saudi Automobile and Motorcycle Federation (SAMF) and the Saudi Motorsport Company (SMC), said, “Everyone at SAMF and SMC is thrilled to welcome F1 back to Jeddah for the fourth edition of the Formula 1 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix next March 7-9.”


“Beyond the action on track, we are working hard to deliver another three days of non-stop entertainment for the whole family”


He noted that the Jeddah Corniche Circuit continues to be one of the most thrilling and challenging courses on the F1 calendar, with the previous three races in Saudi Arabia providing consistently superb, adrenaline-fuelled racing.

“Beyond the action on track, we are working hard to deliver another three days of non-stop entertainment for the whole family with some of the biggest names in music expected to return to our Main Stage once again,” Prince Khalid said.

The good times are not confined to the racetrack either, with the F1 weekend in Jeddah once again featuring an extraordinary roster of live music concerts by some of the world’s biggest artists.
