Autobacs Super GT, Nihon Matsuri to enliven Sepang Circuit this June


The Autobacs Super GT 2025 racing event, set to take place on June 27 and 28, will provide something special for fans of Japanese culture.
In collaboration with the annual Nihon Matsuri event, Autobacs Super GT 2025 in Malaysia will not only showcase racing action but also feature a cultural and food festival celebrating Japan.
Interestingly, that weekend will also witness the opening round of the 2025 GR86 Cup Series Malaysia, involving 30 racing vehicles from the GR86 category.
According to Fahrizal Hasan, Managing Partner at HARO Sports & Entertainment, “Super GT continues to be recognized for its carnival-like atmosphere. It is one of the international events that allows fans to get close to drivers, teams, and their favorite vehicles.”
“This year, the Super GT Malaysia Festival 2025 will present an exciting celebration themed around Japanese culture.”
A variety of activities have been organized for visitors, including an open pit session, pit walks, circuit safaris, and an exhibition featuring various booths and souvenir sales.
Tickets for the Autobacs Super GT 2025 Malaysia round went on sale on February 27.
For a limited time, purchasers can obtain tickets priced at RM80 for the K1 Grandstand, RM200 for the Main Grandstand, and RM2,000 for the GT Club Paddock Hospitality lounge at www.supergtmalaysia.com.
The opening round of Super GT 2025 will take place at Okayama International Circuit on April 13, followed by the second round at Fuji Speedway on May 4, and the third round in Malaysia on June 27-28.
The fifth round will be held at Suzuka Circuit on August 24, followed by Sportsland Sugo on September 21, and Autopolis International Racing Course on October 19, with the final round at Mobility Resort Motegi on November 2.
Super GT features a lineup of drivers and manufacturers from Japan (Nissan, Lexus, Toyota, Honda, and Subaru) competing in the GT500 and GT300 classes, alongside renowned manufacturers from Continental such as Aston Martin, Lamborghini, Mercedes-Benz, Ferrari, and BMW.
Malaysia remains the only race location outside of Japan for the 2025 racing season, after Super GT was last held in Thailand in 2019.
