Over 50,000 spectators from Bosnia and Herzegovina, the region and the world are expected at the event, and all those who will not be able to join at the location will be able to enjoy the live TV broadcast at the Sport Club.
For the first time in history, a Formula 1 car will drive through the streets of Bosnia and Herzegovina, reports Anadolu.
Red Bull Showrun Sarajevo will be held on June 9 in Sarajevo and will transform the urban spaces of Sarajevo into a unique stage for an automotive performance during which the legendary Red Bull Racing Formula 1 car will prepare a memorable day for all visitors. The accompanying program will include musical performances, as well as performances by the famous German duo Red Bull Driftbrothers, and stunt motorcycle virtuoso Aras Gibiez.
Legendary F1 driver David Coulthard sent a message to the citizens of Sarajevo in front of Red Bull Racing, who emphasized that Sarajevo is one of the nine cities in the world that will host the Red Bull Showrun.
“You have won our hearts with your rich culture, colorful history, and the special spirit of the people in this area will make the event even more special,” said Coulthard.
Emphasizing that the Red Bull Showrun is the ultimate combination of motor sports, music and excitement, Jadran Crnogorac, in front of the organizers, pointed out that the car will pass along the route from Marijina Dvor to the Mechanical School and back past the National Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
“Bosnia and Herzegovina and Sarajevo certainly deserve such events and this is our dedication to the city. We would like to especially thank our patrons and partners, without whose support the implementation of such a large project would certainly not be possible”, said Crnogorac, adding that watching this adrenaline spectacle will be free for all visitors and fans.
Soon, however, a certain number of tickets for the Fun Pit zone and VIP seats in the stands will go on sale, for those who want the best possible view of the track.
The Minister of Transport of Sarajevo Canton, Adnan Šteta, emphasized that he is happy that the KS Government and the Ministry have created an environment for such events to take place in Sarajevo and that the team from Red Bull has recognized this.
“I am proud that we will be part of a worldwide project. For the first time, a car will pass on our roads and we are looking forward to June. We are preparing to make everything perfect. We will not reveal some things, there will be many surprises, and we will be a real support in order to send another phenomenal picture from Sarajevo to the whole world”, pointed out Šteta.
The Minister of Culture and Sports of Sarajevo Canton, Kenan Magoda, said that there are many events and projects that the ministry will support this year, but that the “Red Bull Showrun Sarajevo 2024” is one of the most significant.
“We are waiting for an all-day world event, full of sports, cultural and musical events. This is happening in Sarajevo for the first time and we believe that it will be a complete spectacle for everyone who will be present and everyone who will follow on television and online platforms. The space in and around the National Museum will be the center of events on June 9, so today we are sending a symbolic message from our museum that Sarajevo deserves to be on the list of the biggest events in the region and the world,” said Magoda.
The president of the Sarajevo Canton Tourist Board, Haris Fazlagić, said that this is a world show, an extremely high-quality and important event.
“We are also honored that it is happening in Sarajevo. The KS Tourist Board continuously supports projects that, among other things, represent Sarajevo as a cultural, historical, musical, gastronomic, and, of course, sports metropolis, from which we send positive vibes in order to attract tourists, and of course, a pleasant stay for all who come to various competitions and events. We wish the participants a special and exciting stay in Sarajevo”, emphasized Fazlagić.
The main part of the Red Bull Showrun, which includes driving a car in the city center, is planned from 14:00 to 16:00 on Sunday, June 9, but the organizer says that an all-day entertainment program with concerts and afterparties is planned so that visitors can have a full and fun day in Sarajevo.
Over 50,000 spectators from Bosnia and Herzegovina, the region and the world are expected at the event, and all those who will not be able to join at the location will be able to enjoy the live TV broadcast at the Sport Club.
