(GONE) Astonishing F1 deal – get two VIP British Grand Prix tickets for 175,000 Hilton points

Hilton Honors has launched what is, almost certainly, going to be the best value hotel ‘experiences’ redemption of 2025 – if you’re a Formula 1 fan.

You can get two tickets to a VIP party at Silverstone to watch the British Grand Prix on Sunday 6th July for just 175,000 Hilton Honors points for two people.

You can redeem on the Hilton Experiences site here.

These tickets sold out within 15 minutes of our article going live – sorry.

Hilton operates the Hilton Garden Inn hotel which is built into the circuit at Silverstone, overlooking the Hamilton Straight. The hotel was built with a roof terrace to allow events like this to take place.

This is how the race day event is described:

Celebrate Hilton’s 20th anniversary with the McLaren F1 Team at the iconic British Grand Prix 2025! Get ready for an unforgettable experience at the home race of the McLaren F1 Team, as you and your guest will attend Sunday’s race at Hilton Garden Inn Silverstone.

Immerse yourself in the excitement from the exclusive Hilton Garden Inn Silverstone Rooftop, with prime views of the race and the legendary Hamilton Straight. Enjoy Hilton’s renowned hospitality with free-flowing food and beverage and vibrant entertainment throughout the day and into the early evening.

In addition to your experience, your day is inclusive of the following:

– Head to the Concert Zone to enjoy in-person driver talks at The Main Stage

– Explore the Entertainment Village and Sports Zones

– Giant screen playing live action-packed racing

– Access to post-race celebrations on Hilton Garden Inn Rooftop

– Live entertainment and DJs throughout the day

No children under 7 are allowed because, well, you’re on a roof. Children under 18 must be accompanied by an adult.

To clarify, two tickets for race day, Sunday 6th July, can be redeemed for 175,000 Hilton Honors points. It’s an astonishing deal.

You can redeem on the Hilton Experiences site here.
