Martin Garrix to headline last-ever Dutch Grand Prix in 2026

Martin Garrix is set to headline the last-ever Dutch Grand Prix in 2026. Taking place on a currently unconfirmed date, the Dutch DJ – who was voted No.1 in DJ Mag’s Top 100 DJs poll last year – will perform as part of the festivities marking the final F1 race at Circuit Zandvoort. This year’s race at the same circuit took place across the weekend of 29th – 31st August. In a statement, Garrix said: “The energy of the Dutch Grand Prix is incredible. As a huge F1 fan, it feels truly special to close this chapter and celebrate with fans from all over the world in the Netherlands. I’ve attended Zandvoort multiple times, and the energy from the crowd is unmatched.” Jan Lammers, sporting director of the Dutch Grand Prix, added: “The Dutch Grand Prix is about much more than racing alone; it’s a total experience. With Martin Garrix, we add an unparalleled musical spectacle. He’s not only one of the world’s biggest artists, but also an icon representing the Netherlands on the global stage. Just like Max Verstappen does in Formula 1.” The Dutch Grand Prix returned to the annual F1 calendar in 2021, but the decision has now been made to remove it from the calendar after 2026. Tickets to attend next year’s race can be requested here from Friday, 29th August until Sunday, 7th September. Tickets will be allocated through a draw during the week of 8th September with high demand expected.
