The Best Fan Zones and Events at the Miami GP

We are back for the third annual Miami Grand Prix, taking place down south in the Floridian heat! Last year, the Miami International Autodrome saw Lando Norris claim his very first win in Formula 1 with McLaren to the surprise and excitement of all of his fans. The Miami circuit was introduced to the Formula 1 calendar back in 2022, where Max Verstappen took the win in his dominant season with Red Bull. The Miami Grand Prix is the first of three races that take place in the United States as well as being the first out of all the North American races, with the Montreal Grand Prix following shortly after in June.  

This year, the Grand Prix will run from Thursday, May 1st to Sunday, May 4th, 2025.

The Miami Grand Prix is possibly one of the busiest Grand Prix weekends, as it's filled with a plethora of events, activities, performances and experiences for all fans! Besides the on track action, fans can expect tons of off track action as well.
