Side events and preparations
MotoGP Lombok is more than just a race. The event has developed into a full festival experience, with side events taking place throughout the Mandalika area.
Visitors can expect music concerts, cultural performances, food festivals, and local business exhibitions during race weekend. These events add to the atmosphere and make the Indonesian Grand Prix one of the most unique stops on the MotoGP calendar.
Infrastructure around the circuit has also improved significantly in recent years. Road access has been expanded, parking areas have increased, and shuttle services operate between key locations and the circuit to help manage traffic.
What to expect at Mandalika
The Pertamina Mandalika International Street Circuit is widely considered one of the most scenic tracks in motorsport. Located right next to the Indian Ocean, the circuit offers spectacular coastal views combined with fast and technical racing sections.
One of the most iconic features of the track is its sweeping corners along the coastline, with Lombok’s hills rising in the background. The combination of natural beauty and high-speed racing creates a unique viewing experience for spectators.
Beyond the circuit, Lombok itself is a destination worth exploring. The island is known for its beaches, surf spots, waterfalls, and nearby islands such as the Gilis. Activities such as surfing, snorkelling, diving, trekking, and paragliding are all easily accessible.
How to prepare for MotoGP Lombok 2026
Planning ahead is essential for MotoGP Lombok, as demand for accommodation and flights to Lombok increases significantly during race weekend.
After securing your tickets, the next step is to organise transport and accommodation. Motorbikes and cars are the most common ways to get around Lombok, and both are available for rent.
It is highly recommended to stay slightly outside the Mandalika area to avoid heavy traffic and high prices. Choosing a quieter location allows you to enjoy the race during the day and relax in a more peaceful environment afterwards.
Extending your stay is also a great idea. Lombok offers far more than just MotoGP, and spending a few extra days exploring the island will make your trip far more rewarding.
Amazing Lombok Resort is an ideal base for your trip, offering a peaceful setting within reach of the circuit. After a day at the track, you can return to a relaxed atmosphere, close to nature and some of the most beautiful beaches in South Lombok.
With growing popularity, MotoGP Lombok 2026 is expected to be one of the busiest editions yet. Plan early, book ahead, and get ready to experience one of the most unique races on the MotoGP calendar.
