TEMPO.CO, Jakarta – The MotoGP Indonesia is set to take place from October 3 to 5, 2025. The organizing committee has announced special ticket prices for West Nusa Tenggara (NTB) residents and civil servants who want to watch the race at the Mandalika Circuit.”The special ticket prices for NTB residents and civil servants enhance Mandalika’s position as Indonesia’s leading sportainment destination,” said Yusron Hadi, Head of the NTB Communication and Information Office, on Monday, September 29, 2025.In addition to providing wider public access, Yusron hopes that hosting the Pertamina Grand Prix of Indonesia will have a significant economic impact. The presence of tens of thousands of spectators is expected to stimulate the accommodation, transportation, culinary, and local micro-business sectors, bolstering NTB’s role as Indonesia’s sports tourism epicenter.The committee has prepared several categories for this program. Special ticket prices for local NTB residents and civil servants are available in the Premium Grandstand A category. From the original price of Rp 1,750,000, NTB residents can purchase tickets for Rp875,000 (a 50% discount). Civil servants can enjoy this category for Rp800,000.For the Premium Grandstand B, C, J, and K categories, the price has been reduced from the original Rp900,000 to Rp450,000 for NTB ID card holders and Rp400,000 for NTB civil servants.Regular Grandstand tickets, originally priced at Rp400,000, are now Rp200,000 for NTB residents and Rp185,000 specifically for civil servants.ITDC’s Director of Operations, Troy Warokka, claimed that the lower prices are a form of appreciation and solidarity. “The Pertamina Grand Prix of Indonesia 2025 will not only be a global motorcycle racing event but also a celebration with the NTB community,” he said.”This program provides a broader opportunity for the local NTB community to witness the action of world-class racers at Mandalika at more affordable rates, valid for three days,” he added. The goal, he concluded, is to ensure the local community can be a significant part of this global event in their own home.Editor’s Choice: Tears of Triumph: Marc Marquez Claims 7th MotoGP Title in 2025Click here to get the latest news updates from Tempo on Google News
