Ticket Details - Williment Recommends:

Chicane Inside

Considered by many as the prime viewing location on the circuit, this grandstand provides breathtaking views of the action through the Chicane onto Wakefield Road. Drivers "thread the needle" and if they get it right it's awesome, but get it wrong and the run-off areas and barriers come into play. A Bytecraft Superscreen again completes the viewing package.

Barry Sheene Pit Straight

The largest grandstand on the circuit situated on Pit Straight offers the drama of race starts, finishes and pit stop action, plus conveniently located near catering and merchandising outlets. Three giant Bytecraft Superscreens are provided for Barry Sheene Pit Straight Grandstand patrons.

500 Club

The 500 Club is most popular with our clients. We have booked tables of 10 in this facility which is situated behind the Barry Sheene Grandstand. Your premium seats are in the Barry Sheene Pit Straight Grandstand with views of all the activity in the V8 Supercar Pits and on the start/finish line. Your Clipsal 500 hospitality package includes:

  • Premium reserved seating
  • Gourmet buffet luncheon, including beer, wines and soft drinks, between 11.30am and 1.30pm (Friday, Saturday, Sunday only)
  • V8 Supercar Paddock 4-day pass
  • Clipsal 500 event program

Williment Sports Travel can arrange tickets for any of the 12 Grandstands located around the circuit. For other Corporate Hospitality options please contact Williment Sports Travel for a quotation.
