About Emilia Romagna Grand Prix
The Emilia Romagna Grand Prix is an event in contemporary motorsport that incorporates two of the world's preeminent facets of racing: the technological pinnacle of Formula 1 and the venerated racing tradition that runs through Italy's DNA. Yet even as the event reflects the Italian enthusiasm for racing, it also offers an intense spectacle for fans, thanks to its three-day weekend of practice sessions, sprint qualifying, and the sprint race that precedes the Sunday main event. For 2026, organizers have scheduled the event for the weekend of May 15-17 at the Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari in Imola. This will mark the third edition of the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix in the modern Formula 1 era.
Emilia Romagna Grand Prix History
The circuit itself has evolved over time, growing more complex while maintaining its old-school charm. The courses received frequent revisions in the early to mid-2000s, with the FIA (the motorsport's international governing body) in association with the European Bank of Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) applying safety improvements to the racetrack.
Emilia Romagna Grand Prix Experience
This immersion has gotten even more intense lately, thanks to the introduction of the sprint format. In this case, it's not just the drivers and teams who have to deal with the four stages of practice, qualifying, and two races squeezed into just one weekend. It's also the fans who have to cope with an ever-increasing number of dramatic developments. This is the latest from the Formula 1 series, which kicks off in Australia in March. The colorfulness of this particular field of competitors, taken together with the various plotlines, serves up a goodly amount of both qualitative and quantitative return on our investment.
Experience the ultimate motorsport event!
The renowned Lewis Hamilton has come to a historic agreement with the iconic team Ferrari, combining Hamilton's wealth of championship experience with that team's long and glorious history. Hamilton will now work closely with Charles Leclerc, the Scuderia's other driver. Carlos Sainz is now with Williams, and adding him to that team gives it a boost with Sainz's very fresh viewpoint. Fernando Alonso is still with Aston Martin, and we should not forget that Hamilton's younger brother, Nicholas, is with Formula 2 team Virtuosi.

Emilia Romagna Grand Prix Venue Information
The Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari is an examination in old-school racing. And for race fans, that very fact is good to know. The circuit spans about 4.9 km (3.0 mi) and is set in the Emilia Romagna region, a part of Italy that is as beautiful as it is pastoral. While the sights and sounds of the machines at full throttle fill the air, the experience as a whole is one that is intimate, right on the edge of the action. For those fortunate enough to witness the happening in person, it doesn't get much better than that.
Imola Circuit Layout Guide
Certain places provide the most viewing pleasure. The main grandstand sits facing the pit complex with a direct line of sight to the start-finish line and the pit lane. The sightlines extend up and down the front straight and across the line at the end of the high-speed portion of the lap. The corners in between — but especially the Tamburello and Villeneuve corners — are where the real action takes place. You can almost reach out and touch the cars as they veer off to the left into a banking that forces them to make significant directional changes. You get to see the cars doing what they do best — cornering, nosing ahead of rivals. The chest-thumping, gut-intensifying, low-end-4-6-7 vibe of the Paddock Club as it opens wide to reveal the grid and the drivers' positions puts you closer to the action than most. But there's a seat for everyone and many ways to experience Imola.
These unforgettable moments highlight the ability of the Imola circuit to throw up dramatic, stirring incidents that reverberate across the F1 fandom worldwide. While many circuits have their own distinctive features, Imola stands out among all of them.
A counterclockwise direction: It is the only current circuit on the F1 calendar that runs in a counterclockwise direction, which puts different demands on the driver's body. Upward- and downward-sloping: With a total rise and fall of 68 meters, the circuit is decidedly not flat. The rise forces the cars to behave differently, and when they go up, they also slow down because they have red-lit heat correction on their left and right suspension arms. You can imagine the kind of heat the electrical current generates when you have that many electrical components packed so tightly into those arms.
How to get to Imola Circuit
It's a good idea to obtain parking permissions ahead of time, or to stay in Bologna's vicinity — you could even book a room in places like Casalecchio di Reno or Castel San Pietro Terme — where you can find the sorts of shuttle services to the race venue that will keep you from tying up in traffic with other race fans on the morning of May 29, 2026. Anyway, making all these arrangements the way I have just outlined helps to ensure a smooth run on race day, arriving happy and not harried.
Emilia Romagna Grand Prix Ticket Options
There are several tiers to the ticketing for this race (I say "this race" because a lot can change between now and 2026). First, there are General Admission tickets.
Weekend and Daily Passes
If you're looking for a bit more flexibility than a full week of racing, consider the Weekend and Daily Passes. The Weekend Pass bundles together access for all three days — you get to go for the whole race weekend, with a discount that makes it a better deal than if you were to buy individual day passes. The Daily Pass allows you to choose one day to attend, making it a good option for those whose travel plans just won't allow the luxury of a longer stay in Imola. Both passes are priced very reasonably, by the way, especially considering how desperately some venues (and F1 itself) need cash these days.
Listings for post-market tickets may show a slight increase above original pricing, depending on how many people want rush tickets, how many drivers really good at driving are showing up, and how many hard-to-get tickets there are for exclusive seating.

Those who buy tickets close to race weekend need not worry that they will be getting the tickets too late to be of any use; for these fans, electronic delivery is the safest bet for ensuring that they will have their tickets in hand by the time the cars fire up for qualifying.
For those who plan further in advance, delivery times stretching all the way to race weekend allow for the use of more old-school methods of ticket delivery, like postal services.
When to buy Emilia Romagna Grand Prix tickets?
Fans can, and should, plan for all sorts of contingencies — the weather in early May in Italy is notorious for being unpredictable, with rain possible and temperatures varying by as much as twenty degrees. Listings for post-market tickets may show a slight increase above original pricing, depending on how many people want rush tickets, how many drivers really good at driving are showing up, and how many hard-to-get tickets there are for exclusive seating.
Emilia Romagna Grand Prix Essentials
What to Bring
Racegoers should prepare by packing plenty of good, warm clothing that can be layered to suit whatever the ticketgates might be charging. Hearing protection is another essential. The sound of twenty F1 engines at full throttle tends to be a bit much for the uninitiated. And don't skimp on sunblock. Despite the chance of rain, sunburns to the extreme are a distinct possibility.
Accommodation Options
Imola's limited capacity means that would-be guests must think outside the box. The best and closest option is to book a hotel room in Bologna, where you'll find more than enough variety and a price range to suit all types of budgets. Along with hotels and hostels, Bologna has a decent number of Airbnb options.
If you can't find anything in Bologna, your next best option is to book a place in or around one of the small towns you're likely to drive through on your way to the track, such as Dozza, Faenza, or even Imola itself. And if you wait too long to make your reservations, you'll probably end up camping, which is actually an option in some of those aforementioned towns. We don't recommend it, though.
Food and Drink Information
Circuit food has a bad reputation, but it doesn't have to. If you cheap out on the food vendors, then yes, you'll get the kind of portable snacks and meals that are served at many an American fairground. Luckily, the in-house dining options at the Imola Grand Prix could easily appear on Italian restaurant menus outside the confines of this particular motorsport event.
