MyKad tickets, explained
Last updated: Oct 3, 2026
The cheapest way into Sepang this October is the MyKad ticket — discounted 3-day passes reserved for Malaysian citizens, including the famous RM200 "Madani" hillstand ticket. But the rules are strict, and the penalties are real. Here's everything, drawn from the Sepang International Circuit's official published guidelines.
The four official rules
- Malaysians only. MyKad-discounted tickets are valid for Malaysian citizens holding a valid MyKad — no exceptions.
- Bring your MyKad to the gate. Verification happens at entry. This is the rule people trip on: your ticket alone isn't enough.
- Wrong ticket, wrong person — consequences. If your discounted ticket doesn't match a valid MyKad, the organizers can deny you entry or make you pay the price difference on the spot.
- No refund if verification fails. A cancelled ticket due to failed MyKad verification is not refundable. Don't test this one.
The prices (3-day passes, tax included)
- G hillstand — RM200 (the Madani ticket; MyKad holders only)
- B hillstand — RM809.60
- C hillstand — RM809.60
- F grandstand — RM1,291.40
- K1 grandstand — RM1,386.00
- Main grandstand — RM2,083.40
Children aged 3–6 get 25% off (every category except G hillstand); under-3s enter free with no seat allocated.
MyKad vs international: what you save
Same seats, two price lists. A few head-to-head numbers:
- Main grandstand — RM2,083.40 (MyKad) vs US$565.40 (international)
- B hillstand / general admission — RM809.60 (MyKad) vs US$220 (international)
- G hillstand — RM200, MyKad holders only. There is no international equivalent; this is the famous Madani ticket.
For the remaining categories, check the live prices on bahraingp.com — and note the payment catch below, which applies to every purchase.
Availability, September 30, 2026: most MyKad categories are now sold out — only B General Admission (RM809.60) was still listed for MyKad holders. That can change; verify before you plan around it.
Not Malaysian? Read this.
International tickets run USD 218.90–566.06 for the same categories. A MyKad-discounted ticket that doesn't correspond to a valid MyKad will be invalidated — buying one as a non-citizen, or buying one from a reseller, risks exactly the denial-of-entry scenario in rule 3. This is also why the verification exists: scalpers were reported reselling tickets at up to 3x markup, and the MyKad check is what stops that inventory from working.
At the gate: have these ready
- Your physical MyKad. Verification happens at entry, and the ticket alone isn't enough.
- Your ticket or booking confirmation — the email from bahraingp.com with your order details.
- Time. MyKad verification is an extra check at the gate, and race-weekend gates open at 8:30am Friday and Saturday, 10:00am Sunday. Don't be the person sprinting at 12:25 for a 12:30 practice.
Quick answers
Can I buy a MyKad ticket for my non-Malaysian partner or friend?
No. Rule one is absolute: Malaysian citizens holding a valid MyKad. A discounted ticket that doesn't match a valid MyKad risks denial of entry or paying the price difference on the spot.
What if I lose my MyKad before the race?
The published guidelines don't spell out a lost-card process. Don't hope the gate will sort it out — contact Sepang International Circuit or Bahrain International Circuit before race day.
