Supporting the 2023 MotoGP
Governor Zulkieflimansyah’s request to increase flights to Lombok Airport stems from the need to facilitate the smooth arrival of MotoGP fans and participants for the Mandalika 2023 MotoGP. The MGPA, as the event’s organizer, aims to draw a significant audience to the race, making it a truly unforgettable experience for all.
Reduced Ticket Prices and Enhanced Accessibility
One of the key strategies employed by the MGPA to attract more spectators is by reducing ticket prices for non-VIP classes. This move aims to make attending the Mandalika 2023 MotoGP more affordable and accessible to a broader audience. However, it’s worth noting that VIP ticket prices have seen an increase compared to the previous year’s Mandalika MotoGP event.
