Formula 1 fans and their families have more to look forward this time around!
The 17th edition of the Formula 1 Petronas Malaysia Grand Prix, is set to take place from the 27th till 29th March 2015. This year with the theme ‘Experience F1 Like Never Before’, Sepang, a world class racing circuit, will be transformed into a huge entertainment ground dubbed the ‘F1 Carnival’.
For years, SIC’s CEO Dato’ Razlan Razali, has been mooting the idea to make F1 a carnival that is as exciting on the track as it is off. In a recent meeting with Formula 1 Chief Executive, Bernie Ecclestone, Dato’ Razlan got the green light to make the upcoming Malaysian leg just that.
“He (Ecclestone), was open to the ideas we put forth to make the weekend even more exciting, It will have something for everyone, and I assure you it’s going to be spectacular”,
“What’s more with tickets as low as RM80, we are maintaining our status as the most affordable F1 event on the calendar plus the event starts an hour earlier making it ideal for family fun.” said Dato’ Razlan.
The F1 Carnival, has something for everyone, for the adrenaline fueled there is the XTrack-drifting, Go-Cart, for the kids and the kid at heart there is a water course cool zone, the carnival family zone and other fun family affair activities complete with a Ferris wheel, haunted house, carnival games and a relaxing zone where visitors can kick-back and enjoy food and drinks. The world-class after-race concert will also end the night on a high note.
“The after-race concert, which will feature multiple Grammy award winner Lenny Kravitz as the main act, will be opened to all ticket holders including the RM80 for free. It will be a healthy event free from alcohol and tobacco; with children to be welcomed as well. The early start time will also ensure that families can have fun but also leave early,” Dato’ Razlan said.
To top things off, one race ticket unleashes more than just the thrill of the race, ticket holders will get to enjoy selected activities at the F1 Carnival at no cost, get entrance to the after race concert and also be rewarded with One Ticket Unlimited which offers a list of discounts and promotions from various retail outlets and brands in Kuala Lumpur.
