Besides the races, guests will be treated to a number of exhilarating performances over the four days as well. This year’s off-track entertainment will be headlined by superstar DJ and record producer, Martin Garrix, along with the world-renowned producer, songwriter, DJ and music marvel Kygo. The award-winning superstars will be performing some of their chart-topping hits and are certain to entertain and excite fans.

The Bahrain Grand Prix is the most significant event in the kingdom and contributes substantially to a number of sectors including the tourism and the motorsport sectors, amongst others. Our prolonged partnership with such an illustrious event is testament to the unrelenting ambition of Jaguar Land Rover Bahrain to positively contribute in every way to the advancement of the Kingdom of Bahrain.”
Apart from the main race that will be held on March 31, the four-day event will also comprise two highly competitive racing series from across the globe including the FIA Formula 2 Championship, formerly known as the GP2 Series, and the Porsche GT3 Cup Challenge Middle East. In addition, guests will be treated to a number of roaming acts, musical, dance and circus performances throughout the four-day event.

“This is the latest in a long line of strategic partnerships that Euro Motors Jaguar Land Rover has undertaken with BIC that strengthens our brands and positions them as vehicles of choice.
