Whilst there’s no on-track action on the Thursday, Silverstone is hosting an opening concert on the Thursday evening when David Guetta is headlining.
However; if you only have a 3-day (Fri / Sat / Sun) ticket, or tickets to any combination of Fri / Sat / Sun then you cannot access the Thursday opening concert. You’ll need to purchase an additional Thursday-only ticket; see ‘Tickets’ section lower down this page for how to do that.
4-day ticket holders can access the opening concert on Thursday.
You also need additional tickets to access the T1 afterparties. See more on that below.
Concert stages
The music performances will take place in a few main locations during the Silverstone F1 weekend.
Main Stage
The headline artists, including those playing at the opening concert, will be performing on the Main Stage that’s adjacent to the Wellington Straight, in what’s normally called the Concert Zone or the main Fan Zone. It’s outside and exposed to the weather.
The main stage is also where the Silverstone Formula 1 driver and team interviews will take place over the weekend.
Made at Vale Stage
The Made at Vale stage is located behind the Vale grandstand just next to Turn 14. Last year this was in a big-top tent behind the stand which means it was sheltered from the sun and rain. It’s behind the stand, so in no way obstructs the view of the track from the Vale grandstand.
Drivers Inn Stage
The Drivers Inn stage is located on the outside of Copse Corner (Turn 9) and will host a lot of tech talks and interviews with people in motorsport, as well as the Fast and the Curious podcast.
T1 Enclosure (Mahiki)
Music / set timings
See here for the full race timetable over the weekend. For details on exactly what’s on each stage over the weekend, check out the Silverstone website.
The headline artists will be performing after the final Formula 1 on-track action has finished each day at Silverstone.
Usually the music will start around an hour after the F1 is planned to end, but any delays to the motorsport will be likely to have a knock-on effect on the start of the performances.
The only exception to this will be the Silverstone Opening Concert. As that’s on Thursday, when there’s no on-track action, the music is likely to start on time.
Concert tickets
If you only have tickets for a specific day and want to see an artist performing on a different day, your best bet is to try and find single-day tickets for sale on either ViaGoGO or StubHub.
The same applies if you want to go to the opening concert on Thursday, but only have Fri / Sat / Sun / 3-day tickets. You’ll need a seperate Thursday ticket.
I’ve used both platforms for F1 tickets in the past, including for my trip to the Las Vegas GP, and have always had a great experience.
They also have a robust ‘FanProtect guarantee’ that gives you peace of mind that your tickets / money will be safe!
Opening concert
To access the opening party on Thursday evening, you need to have either a 4-day weekend ticket, or a specific Thursday ticket, in either general admission, grandstand or hospitality / VIP areas for the British Grand Prix.
A 3-day weekend ticket will not get you access to Silverstone’s opening concerts on Thursday.
Main stage during the weekend
To access any of the concerts on the main stage, you must have either a general admission, grandstand or VIP ticket that gets you access to the circuit for the F1 on the given day of the concert you want to attend.
Comedy Club
This year there’s also a comedy club on the Friday and Saturday evenings, taking place on the Village Enclosure stage.
Access to the Comedy Club is not included with your F1 ticket. Instead you need to purchase a seperate ticket through the Silverstone website which is £15 per night.
T1 After Parties
To access the T1 Enclosure for the DJs playing at the Mahiki After Parties, you need to either:
- Have tickets for access to the T1 or T1 VIP enclosures
- Purchase separate T1 After Party tickets
Anyone with any kind of Grand Prix ticket can add the separate T1 After Party tickets to their order. The costs for these vary from day to day, but the starting prices are as follows:
- Thursday – £20
- Friday – £40
- Saturday – £50
- Sunday – £40
Gates and access
The crowds in front of the main stage at the end of each day can be huge. If you’re watching the F1 from the other side of the track but want to be near the front of the stage, you’ll need to try and get to the stage at least 30 minutes before the on-track action finishes.
If you’re coming from outside the circuit, the main stage and Mahiki enclosure are most easily access through the main entrance gate, gate 19. But the other gets will also be open, you just might need to walk further within the circuit.
See my full guide to the Silverstone Entrance Gates for more information.
