Supporting program

For the 87th time, a motorcycle Grand Prix will take place on German soil. At the Sachsenring, MotoGP fans can look forward to five days of nonstop action. From Wednesday afternoon through Sunday evening (July 9–13), visitors will be thoroughly entertained at Germany’s only World Championship stop. Spectators will get their money’s worth even before the racing action begins.

The already diverse supporting program—featuring a pit walk on Thursday, rider presentations, concerts in the Karthalle, the Red Bull Race Circus, and many other highlights—is set to get a major upgrade in 2026. For the first time, the new Paddock Tour will open the doors to areas of the MotoGP circus at the Sachsenring that are normally off-limits to fans. Lasting about 60 minutes, guided tours on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday will take participants through Paddocks 1 and 2—past the team hospitality areas, along the pits of the MotoGP stars, and up to the pit roof with a direct view of the pit lane. The tours will also feature fascinating behind-the-scenes insights into the Sachsenring and the Liqui Moly Motorcycle Grand Prix of Germany up close. Tickets for the paddock tour are now available in the online shop.
