Singapore Circuit Map: Marina Bay Track Layout, Zones and Grandstands

The Marina Bay Street Circuit is a 4.940km night-race track that runs through Singapore’s Civic District and along the waterfront. Unlike most circuits, Singapore sells access by zone as well as by seat, so your grandstand decides which parts of the circuit park you can walk into. This page shows the track layout, the four zones, the gates and where each grandstand sits.

The track runs counterclockwise. The pit straight and the first five turns sit on the Zone 1 and 2 side, while the Padang, Esplanade and Civic District corners sit in Zone 4.

2026 is a sprint weekend (9–11 October). The layout, zones and gates on this page stay the same. For what a sprint weekend changes for your visit, see our Singapore Grand Prix visitor guide.

Marina Bay Street Circuit Track Data

The Marina Bay Street Circuit has 19 turns. It had 23 until 2023, when the final sector was reworked, so older maps and guides still show the wrong number. We recommend you check any map you find for the 19-turn layout before you plan your seat.

Singapore Circuit Zones: Which Zone Your Ticket Opens

The Marina Bay circuit park is split into four zones, and each grandstand ticket opens some or all of them. Knowing your zone before you arrive saves you a long walk around the outside of the circuit.

Zone	What it covers	Gates
Zone 1 and Zone 2	The pit straight side and the early turns, plus the Bayfront stand in Zone 2	1, 2 and 8
Zone 3	A transient link between the zones. It is not a ticketed zone	None
Zone 4	The Padang, Esplanade and Civic District side of the circuit	3A, 3B, 4, 5, 6 and 7
Paddock Zone	Team and F1 paddock area. It is a restricted area	None

Most grandstands open all four zones. However, Stamford, Padang, Empress and Connaught open Zone 4 only. If you want to watch the pit straight or visit the Zone 1 stages, we recommend you choose a grandstand that covers all zones.

Marina Bay Corners: Where Each Grandstand Sits on the Track

Marina Bay has several distinct sections, and the grandstand you pick decides which one you see. The pit straight and Turns 1 to 5 are on one side of the circuit. The Civic District corners and the waterfront run home are on the other.

Turns	What happens there	Nearby grandstands
Turn 1	The heavy braking zone at the end of the pit straight, and the pit exit	Pit, Super Pit, Turn 1, Pit Exit
Turns 1–3	The opening corners, seen from the inside and the outside of the track	Turn 2, Chicane @ Turn 2
Turns 4–5	A sharp right at Turn 5, followed by one of the longest straights on the circuit	Republic, Raffles
Turns 7–8	A heavy braking zone and a quick exit at the Memorial corner	Stamford
Turns 9–10	Cars accelerate out of Turn 9 and set up for the Turn 10 chicane	Padang A, Padang B
Turns 11–12	The Civic District section, beside the Victoria Theatre area	Empress
Turn 14	A heavy braking zone and the last real overtaking spot of the lap	Connaught
Turns 16–17	Cars come off the long straight, turn left and head for the final stretch	Bayfront
Turns 17–18	A straight past the Singapore Flyer, on the run to the final corners	Skyline, Promenade
Final corners	The last two corners before the pit straight, with the Flyer in view	Marina Bay

These groupings are our own reading of the circuit layout, so treat them as a guide to general location rather than an exact boundary. For which of these stands we rank highest, see our Best Grandstands guide.

Which Gate for Your Singapore Grandstand

Singapore has eight gates, and they split cleanly by zone. Gates 1, 2 and 8 serve Zones 1 and 2. Gates 3A, 3B, 4, 5, 6 and 7 serve Zone 4.

Gate	Zone	Area
Gate 1	Zones 1 and 2	Republic Boulevard
Gate 2	Zones 1 and 2	Helix side
Gate 8	Zones 1 and 2	Helix side
Gates 3A and 3B	Zone 4	Stamford
Gate 4	Zone 4	Empress
Gate 5	Zone 4	Civic District
Gate 6	Zone 4	Fullerton
Gate 7	Zone 4	Marina Square and Temasek Avenue

We strongly advise you to check the gate printed on your ticket before you travel. For example, Raffles Grandstand ticket holders are directed to Gates 1 and 2. A gate in the wrong zone can mean leaving the circuit park and re-entering from a different side.

Singapore Accessibility: Terrain and Step-Free Routes

Marina Bay is a street circuit, so it works around existing bridges, kerbs and underpasses. As a result, step-free access varies a lot between zones. The circuit park map marks each underpass as either a ramp or a stairs route, and it also shows overpasses and wheelchair-accessible restrooms.

If you use a wheelchair, we recommend you enter through Gate 4 at Empress to reach Zone 4. The organiser advises this because the position of gates, barriers, overpasses and underpasses blocks other routes. A wheelchair-accessible platform is available at the Padang in Zone 4 for the evening concerts, and a dedicated wheelchair platform sits at the Empress grandstand.

For booking an accessible platform and what you need to bring, see our Singapore Grand Prix visitor guide.
