The Formula 1 Qatar Airways Azerbaijan Grand Prix returns to Baku from September 24–26, 2026, bringing world-class motorsport and thousands of international visitors to Azerbaijan’s capital.
The Baku City Circuit is one of the most distinctive tracks on the Formula 1 calendar. It combines high-speed straights with narrow technical sections passing through central Baku, along the Caspian Sea and beside the ancient walls of Icherisheher.
Staying in Baku’s Old City places visitors close to the circuit, spectator areas and many of the city’s principal attractions. The Maiden Tower, Palace of the Shirvanshahs, Caspian Boulevard, Fountain Square and Nizami Street are all within convenient walking distance.
Located inside the Old City, Sultan Inn Boutique Hotel offers an intimate 11-room boutique experience close to the Formula 1 action. Guests booking through the hotel’s
official website can use the promotional code
f1baku to receive a
20% discount for stays from September 23–27, 2026. Availability is limited, so early booking is recommended.
Major international events such as Formula 1 also increase global interest in
Azerbaijan’s real estate market. Many visitors use their time in Baku not only to experience the race, but also to explore property and long-term investment opportunities in rapidly developing destinations such as
Sea Breeze and Baku White City.
Rest Azerbaijan can arrange
airport transfers,
private tours, accommodation assistance and personalised
real estate tours as part of your Formula 1 visit.
