Check Out These Events at Bahrain International Circuit This Weekend (November 22 and November 23)

Bahrain International Circuit (BIC) will have back-to-back days of experiences on track this weekend.

On Friday (November 22), visitors can enjoy Batelco Fitness on Track in the morning. This is BIC’s fan-favourite exercise activity for those looking to keep physically healthy.

The intensity then dials up a notch on Saturday (November 23) with Open Track Day, offering speed enthusiasts the opportunity to power along a Formula 1 host venue in their very own cars or motorbikes.

More on Friday’s Batelco Fitness on Track
Friday’s Batelco Fitness on Track is scheduled for 6am to 10am.

The activity can be done both on foot or on a bicycle – either individually or with a group of friends and family. Runners and walkers will be utilising BIC’s 2.550-kilometre Inner Circuit, while cyclists will get to ride their bikes along the 3.543-kilometre Outer Circuit, with another dedicated area for children’s cycling.

The cost to take part is BD2 for cyclists and BD1 for runners. Payment must be made upon booking. Children under the age of 12 can participate for free if accompanied by a paying adult.

BIC’s Batelco Fitness on Track Season Pass is also still available through the BIC hotline. This is ideal for regular participants as it grants access to all Batelco Fitness on Track events throughout the season, at the affordable price of just BD15. The pass gives users access to all Batelco Fitness on Track sessions which will be held multiple times each month, all the way through to April of 2025.

What You Need to Know About Open Track Day
On Saturday, Open Track Day will then be giving motorsport lovers the ultimate thrill with a drive like no other in their private vehicles. The day’s events will be held from 11am to 6pm along BIC’s 2.55-kilometre Inner Circuit.

Those interested in taking part can book their slot in advance at a reduced rate. The cost for the full day is BD82.500, while the half day is BD55, and a single session is BD22. If booking on the day itself, the cost is BD93.500 for the full day, BD66 for half the day, and BD27.500 for a single session. Instructor sessions are also available, while additional drivers and passengers can participate, all for an additional fee.

Driver etiquette is of ultimate importance, and there is no close or aggressive overtaking permitted. Overtaking is by invitation between corners and driving is monitored, with poor or dangerous driving being dealt with swiftly.
