BIC continues Green Ticket initiative for upcoming FIA WEC season-finale

Tickets to the Bapco Energies 8 Hours of Bahrain are available now. Tickets cost just BD5 for adults and BD2.5 for kids for the two-day weekend programme. They can be bought online at bahraingp.com.

Following the tremendous success of the ground-breaking Green Ticket initiative introduced for last year’s WEC race, BIC and Bapco Energies, in cooperation with the Government of Bahrain, will be bringing it back for the 2023 event. For every WEC ticket sold, a proportion of the revenue, matched by Bapco Energies, is donated to a fund which will directly support the planting of new Mangroves in Bahrain. This very special project funds a mangrove-planting programme in the Kingdom that supports the national target of quadrupling mangrove coverage across the island by 2035.
 
Off the track, BIC has lined up a number of colourful attractions for all the family to enjoy on both days. These are available at the BIC vending area, and they include stunt shows, a classic car show, car simulators, roaming performers, kids’ stage shows, and so much more incredible entertainment. 

Speaking at today’s launch, Shaikh Salman bin Isa Al Khalifa, Chief Executive of Bahrain International Circuit, commented: “The WEC offers fans an incredible mix of World Championship racing, exciting entertainment and family fun. With an open paddock, an amazing line of cars including the debut of Ferrari and Porsche in the Hypercar category, the Spirit of Le Mans is well and truly back in Bahrain. To be hosting the WEC season-finale for a fourth straight year is a tremendous honour, and we thank the WEC and its partners for trusting us to stage this wonderful occasion, where we can celebrate the series’ 2023 champions."
