The Formula 1 2018 Singapore Airlines Singapore Grand Prix has attained the second-highest three-day attendance in the race's 11-year history, reflecting the continuing strong support for the event both from the south-east Asia region and the broader international market.

The eleventh edition of the night race has grown from strength to strength, with the Marina Bay Street Circuit opening its gates this weekend to over 263,000 attendees, an increase of 3.5% in average attendance over the past ten races.

Race promoter Singapore GP Pte Ltd attributes this positive figure to the buoyant profile of Formula 1 and as well as the variety of products introduced this year, such as the new lifestyle facility called Twenty3, enhanced Paddock Club and hospitality suites, family-friendly initiatives such as Pit Stop @ Empress Lawn as well as another world-class line-up of entertainment, including Jay Chou, Liam Gallagher, The Killers, Dua Lipa, Martin Garrix and Simply Red.
