The Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS F1 Team will bring a free fan experience to downtown Austin during United States Grand Prix week, October 22–25. Located at 400 Congress Avenue, the hub will give visitors a way to explore the team and the sport away from the circuit.
Fans will be able to try a pit stop on an F1 car, drive F1 simulators and explore a pit wall experience called “Trackside with Meta AI.” The hub will also display historic team memorabilia and a 2026 Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS F1 Team show car for photos. Daily giveaways are planned.
Mercedes-Benz will use the space to present its MANUFAKTUR personalization program alongside the new Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupé. The combination makes the hub part team experience and part vehicle display, with admission free throughout its four-day run. The announcement does not specify opening hours or whether individual activities require reservations.
