About the Corniche

Normally a city street open to residents enjoying the seaside views and attractions of this Red Sea city, on race days the Jeddah Corniche is transformed into Formula One’s fastest street circuit and the premier racing destination in the Middle East. Racers will reach a blisteringly fast speed of 322 kph (200 mph), with an average speed of 253 kph (157 mph) on this 6.2 km (3.8 mile)-long course.

Discover Jeddah

As suggested by the city’s unofficial motto “Jeddah ghair” (جدة غير) or “Jeddah’s different,” this charming coastal jewel lives up to its centuries-long reputation for accepting worldwide visitors and offering a diverse way of life. The city is known for its thriving arts scene, food and restaurant culture, stunning architectural influences, seaside escapades, and welcoming nature.
