JAKARTA - Head of Formula E Executive Committee Ahmad Sahroni believes that the electric car racing event which will be held in Ancol can accommodate 50 thousand spectators.

Previously, the organizers had reduced the capacity to accommodate 50 thousand spectators to a minimum of 10 thousand due to limited land. However, without explaining the reason, the implementing committee canceled the capacity reduction.

"So it has been agreed that the number of Formula E tickets will be at least 50 thousand," said Sahroni in his statement, Monday, April 4.

Sahroni said, the audience chairs will be made with various classes. Therefore, his party also sells tickets at various prices, starting from the cheapest Rp. 350 thousand and the most expensive to millions of rupiah.

Sahroni revealed that ticket sales for the electric car racing event have not yet been opened. Ticket sales, he said, will start in May or a month before Formula E is held on June 4, 2022.

Then, Sahroni also promised that the organizers would provide various entertainment events that could be enjoyed by the audience and visitors, such as music concerts.

“The event will also be very lively, where we will hold a music concert filled with famous musicians and music groups. We will have three stages that will show entertainment from morning to night,” said Sahroni.

In addition, Sahroni also said that the Formula E event would facilitate MSME players to trade. Later, they will not only be given the opportunity to do business, but also to be given training on good service.

"In this event later, we will involve MSMEs, where they are not only given the opportunity to do business or sell, but also the opportunity to learn. These MSMEs will be trained to have international-class service standards," he explained.
