Miami GP grandstand capacity boosted by 3,000 for year two

The 2023 Miami Grand Prix will host an increased capacity compared to the inaugural race, with event organizers adding 3,000 grandstand seats.

Last year’s first grand prix at the Miami International Autodrome featured an intentionally limited capacity to try and keep on top of traffic and access challenges, with the plan being to add further seating where possible in the future. It has now been confirmed that the grandstand capacity will be increased by 3,000 to take the total up to 56,000, with expanded hospitality numbers as well as general admission passes.
