F1 Canadian Grand Prix Tickets 2026

Canadian Grand Prix Packages

The Canadian Grand Prix is known to provide a variety of packages that are at more accessible prices than other events on the calendar. Grandstand tickets will provide spectators with guaranteed seating while Canadian Grand Prix hospitality packages deliver a far more comprehensive, premium experience.

General Admission Tickets: Your Canadian Grand Prix general admission (GA) tickets are you standard entry tickets. These tickets will grant you access to the event, and allow you observe the action at the Gilles-Villeneuve circuit. However, general admission tickets will not provide a guarenteed seat and instead spectators will get to move around the circuit and observe from one of the designated GA locations.

Grandstand tickets: Canadian GP grandstand tickets provide spectators with a seat in one of the 16 grandstands located at the Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve. Each grandstand offers a different perspective of the race. Some popular options include Grandstand 16, which offers views of the famous ‘Wall of Champions’, and Grandstand 12, which is a great choice for fans looking to see cars accelerate onto the back straight. All grandstand tickets provide spectators with their own reserved seat.

Hospitality tickets: If you’re looking for an upgrade then hospitality is a fantastic option at the Gilles-Villeneuve. With multiple official packages available, fans can select from a variety of premium ticket options including the F1 Live packages, which offers a guided Track Tour, championship trophy photo, F1 insider appearances and a pit lane walk.

Circuit Gilles Villeneuve Details

Location: Parc Jean-Drapeau, Montréal, Canada

First F1 race: 1978

Track Length: 4.361 km

Track Laps: 70

Track Turns: 14

Unique Features: The track is known for its scenic island setting and famous ‘Wall of Champions’.

Located on a man made island Île Notre-Dame, on the St. Lawrence River, the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve has been the home of the Canadian Grand Prix since 1978. The track was named in honour of the Canadian F1 legend Gilles Villeneuve after his death in 1982. It’s a semi-permanent track blending the public park roads and annually constructed racing infrastructure into a top class circuit.

The wall of champions is the track's most famous feature, after 3 World Champions hit the same concrete wall of the final chicane. These champions were Damon Hill, Michael Schumacher and of course Jacques Villeneuve. Jacques Villeneuve ironically cemented the ‘wall of the champions', his dad, Gilles Villeneuve being the first ever winner here only made the incident feel even more symbolic. The track has also seen many other historic moments such as Lewis Hamilton’s first F1 win and the longest race in the sports history in the famous 4 hour race in 2011.

The track is a real stop and go circuit with tight corners and closed in walls that make mistakes easily punishable. The old school feel of the track has made it a popular one amongst racers, Lewis Hamilton even stating that the track has always been ‘one of his favourites’. Spectators also view it as a must attend race, due to the fast paced straights and exciting overtakes.

Canadian Grand Prix 2026 Schedule

The upcoming 2026 Canadian GP is scheduled to take place late May with raceday currently set for May 24th. This event has always taken place during late spring or summer time, due to the unpredictable weather during the autumn and winter months. The race has most commonly taken place during Canadian summer time, but F1’s new regionised calendar has brought the race forward, into May, making it the earliest ever Canadian Grand Prix.
