About Shanghai Grand Prix weekend
Shanghai hosts the Chinese Grand Prix at the purpose-built Shanghai International Circuit, located in the Jiading district about 30km from the city centre. A sprint weekend last year made it extra value — fans get more track action for their ticket.

Booking tips for Chinese GP
- ✓ Book as early as possible. Race weekend accommodation near popular circuits sells out months in advance. The earlier you book, the better your selection and price.
- ✓ Check Thursday–Monday. We recommend arriving Thursday to avoid rush-day travel, and staying until Monday morning to avoid post-race traffic.
- ✓ Read cancellation policies. Race weekends can be disrupted. Choose hotels with flexible cancellation where possible.
- ✓ Consider further out. Hotels within a mile of the circuit are premium-priced and often not worth the cost over a well-connected property 20–30 minutes away.
