“Aurum 1006 km powered by Hankook“, the greatest motorsport festival in Eastern Europe, returns to Palanga for the 24th time on 19-22 July!

Just like every summer, the Klaipeda - Palanga - Kretinga motorway will be transformed into the world-famous race track, where there will be no shortage of speed and excitement. In addition to the main 1006 km race, as every year, spectators will have the opportunity to see or even take part in many additional events.

Many motorsport fans marked the race date on their calendars, and now they have an opportunity to choose the best ticket and reserve the best spot to watch the race.

There are several types of tickets to satisfy the desires of fans. The general admission tickets will be the most popular, but the new edition VIP SUPERFANS tickets will be the most valuable, however, the number of these tickets will be limited. The VIP Superfans tickets will have access to private parking, shuttles services, VIP zone at the racing village, Pit Walk and Grid Walk options and even the special zone in the Pit box.

The promoters know how to make this event as comfortable as possible for all the fans and participants. The racing village will be built with parking options, a camping site, unique stands for participants, a food court and even a stage with the music on for the whole three days. The most important part of this event will be the action on the track that some people are waiting an entire year.

An entertainment zone will be open from Thursday to Saturday night, with many attractions for both children and adults.

“Klaipedos autobusų parkas” will provide complimentary transport from Palanga (bus stop at Vytautas st., next to the church) to the event and back.
