    RECORD BREAKING JEDDAH E-PRIX RETURNS: TICKETS ON SALE NOW FOR SPECTACULAR SEASON 12 DOUBLE HEADER

    Share
    Facebook Twitter Pinterest WhatsApp

    Tickets are now on sale for the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship ahead of its highly anticipated return to the Jeddah Corniche Circuit for the unmissable Jeddah E-Prix on February 13-14, 2026. 

    The Season 12 double-header promises two days of pure adrenaline as the world’s fastest electric racers go wheel-to-wheel under the lights at the world’s fastest street circuit. Fans can now secure their seats for this thrilling, all-electric racing spectacle via WeBook with prices starting from 100 SAR for single day tickets and 180 SAR for two-day access.

    An incredible night race event hosted in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the Jeddah Corniche Circuit will be lit up for Rounds 4 and 5 of the 2025/26 Championship, creating a one-of-a-kind motorsport experience blending cutting-edge technology, high-speed drama, and world-class entertainment under the floodlights.

    Last season’s double-header in Jeddah became the most-watched Formula E weekend in history, smashing records with 65 million global cumulative viewers.

    The 3.001km anticlockwise track, with its 19 sweeping turns and seaside backdrop, creates one of the most distinctive atmospheres on the global motorsport calendar. Under the lights, the circuit becomes a true test of precision and race craft. With the Attack Zone at Turn 13, fans can expect even more tactical racing, daring overtakes and edge-of-your-seat action.

    The excitement doesn’t stop on the track with fans of all ages able to enjoy an action-packed day of family fun at the Fan Village which features interactive zones, gaming arenas, and chances to meet their favourite drivers.

    All 2026 ticket holders can also watch the headline music acts perform once the on-track action and podium ceremonies conclude. An announcement revealing the headline acts will be made in the near future.

    Season 11 Recap

    In a thrilling final-lap showdown, DS Penske’s Maximilian Günther won the first ever Jeddah E-Prix race on Friday evening. The German driver seized his opportunity at the last chicane, overtaking Nissan’s Oliver Rowland right before the chequered flag. Taylor Barnard, who then drove for NEOM McLaren, took the final podium position in Round 3.

    On Saturday, Barnard broke a new record becoming the youngest ever Formula E pole sitter, aged 20 years and 259 days, after qualifying in P1 for Round 4. But he lost that leading position during the race as Rowland capitalised on smart energy management and a well-timed ATTACK MODE strategy to secure a dominant win ahead of Barnard in P2, and Jake Hughes who then raced for Maserati in P3.

    Season 11’s Jeddah E-Prix also saw the debut of the PIT BOOST feature in the all-electric championship. This system requires drivers to complete a mandatory pitstop mid-race to gain a 10% energy increase (3.85kWh) via a 30-second, 600kW ultra-fast energy boost. PIT BOOST t has since been incorporated into all subsequent double-header race weekends.

    Off track, international singer-songwriter, Akon, and Grammy Award-winning rapper, Lil Baby, wowed race goers with their headline performances on the fan stage.

    But they weren’t the only famous faces who attended the race with British boxing star Chris Eubank Jr., ex-Manchester city and current Al-Ahli footballer, Riyad Mahrez, and Georgina Rodríguez, social media personality, model, entrepreneur and partner to Portuguese football player Cristiano Ronaldo, being just some of the big names spotted at last year’s event.

    Alberto Longo, Co-Founder and Chief Championship Officer, Formula E said:

    “The 2026 Jeddah E-Prix represents a significant milestone in our continued partnership with Saudi Arabia, which has continued to go from strength-to-strength since our first race here in Season 5.  Jeddah’s commitment to innovation and sustainability aligns perfectly with Formula E’s vision, and we are proud to bring world-class electric racing back to one of our favourite cities for Season 12. We look forward to delivering an unforgettable event for fans across the region.”

    HRH Prince Khalid bin Sultan Al Abdullah Al Faisal, Chairman of the Automobile & Motorcycle Federation (SAMF) and Saudi Motorsport Company (SMC), said:

    “The return of Formula E reflects the strong growth of international motorsport in Saudi Arabia, supported by continued investment in world-class infrastructure, fan experiences, and event delivery. The Jeddah E-Prix has become a standout fixture on the global calendar, and we are proud to keep raising the bar. Formula E’s focus on innovation and the future of racing aligns seamlessly with our long-term vision for the sport. We look forward to welcoming teams, drivers, and fans for another unforgettable double-header under the lights.”

    Carlo Boutagy, Founder and CEO of CBX – promoter of the Jeddah E-Prix, said:

    “Last season’s inaugural Jeddah E-Prix was a landmark moment for Formula E and we’re excited to build on that incredible momentum as the championship returns to Jeddah in 2026. Saudi Arabia has embraced this event with remarkable passion and the Jeddah Corniche Circuit is built for spectacular night racing. Working together with our partners in the Kingdom, we’re committed to delivering a world-class double-header in 2026, where fans can expect even more speed, drama and entertainment which showcases cutting-edge technology under the lights.”
