The Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya has focused on the fans with this edition of the Gran Premi Monster Energy de Catalunya by activating a series of activities to be found across the venue to keep you entertained throughout the race weekend in Barcelona.
Find here the full schedule and information of the activities scheduled for this weekend, including all about the Fan Zone area, Kids Zone, Sustainability Meeting Points, Rider Fan Parade and post-race shows.
THE FUN ZONES
Kids Zone
There will be an area dedicated to children in the Crater Forest. There will be activities such as a cap decoration workshop and a tattoo workshop, a maze with giant balls, wooden games and a motorbike Scalextric track. Children will be able to meet up in this area on Friday and Saturday from 9:30 AM to 4:30 PM (with a midday break from 2 to 3 PM) and on Sunday from 9 AM to 3 PM.
Green Zone
The Green Zone, located next to the Kids Zone, will once again host activities reflecting the importance of caring for nature. Therefore, visitors will be able to find an artistic installation of mirrored cubes reflecting the most biodiverse area of the Circuit, as well as the Sustainability Meeting Point, a place to learn more about the Circuit’s work on sustainability, open on Saturday and Sunday from 9 AM to 2 PM.
Fan Zone
Behind the Main Grandstand of the Circuit, the Fan Zone will be set up, a regular meeting point for fans where the commercial area of the Circuit will be displayed. Official merchandising products of the MotoGP™ riders will be available for purchase as a souvenir of the event.
Monster Energy Area
Located behind Grandstand B, Monster Energy will once again have its own area where to show its magic and charms. The area has its own programme of activities, including FMX shows, visits from some of the riders sponsored by the energy drink brand and the Tissot Sprint podium on Saturday. In this space there will also be a giant screen to follow the activity on the track.
GET CLOSE TO YOUR FAVOURITE MotoGP™ RIDERS
Hero Walk
The Hero Walk will allow riders to pass through a designated area at the paddock entrance on both Saturday and Sunday mornings to chat with fans, take photos, etc. On Saturday only the Moto3™ and Moto2™ riders will pass through from 11:45 AM to 12:15 PM, while on Sunday the MotoGP™ representatives will do so from 10:20 AM to 10:40 AM. The Hero Walk is an activity reserved for Circuit Members, whose group will receive by e-mail the rules to be able to enjoy this experience.
Tissot Sprint Podium
Since last year, the MotoGP™ World Championship has held a sprint race on Saturday, known as the Tissot Sprint. This shorter but equally or even more exciting race will hold for the second year in a row its podium ceremony in a place within reach of the fans, on the stage of the Monster Energy zone (located behind Grandstand B). This way, the three podium guests will be just a few metres away from the audience at the Circuit.
Riders Fan Parade
On Sunday at 10 AM the Riders Fan Parade will take place, an activity focused on riders and fans. This initiative, which will be held shortly before the start of the races on Sunday, will allow MotoGP™ riders to ride around the track on a trailer to greet and cheer up the Circuit’s attendants. Along the route, the riders will stop in front of grandstands where there may be fan clubs and will be interviewed.
