]]> F1 has cautioned fans not to buy resale tickets for the sold-out livery launch event at the O2 Arena, as such tickets are invalid. The event, part of F1’s 75th anniversary celebration, sold out quickly, leading to inflated resale prices and potential scams. F1 advises on purchasing tickets only through official channels to avoid fraud.

F1 has issued a warning to fans regarding resale tickets for its livery launch event at the London O2 Arena, scheduled for February 18, 2025. The event sold out in just 45 minutes due to overwhelming demand. However, F1 emphasised that any tickets purchased through unofficial resale websites will not be valid for entry. They identified that some listings may include fraudulent tickets, and they only endorse sales from their official site or AXS Official Resale.

The Formula 1 livery launch event marks the beginning of the F1 75th anniversary season and showcases all teams and drivers ahead of the 2025 season opener. The fast sell-out of tickets at relatively affordable prices led to a surge in listings on resale platforms, where some tickets were being priced as high as £1000. F1’s stance against the resale market aims to protect fans from being scammed and to ensure they only purchase legitimate tickets.

F1’s warning against resale tickets highlights the risks fans face when buying from unofficial sources. The governing body, in partnership with The O2, is ensuring that only valid tickets through official channels will provide entry to the livery launch event. Consumers are advised to remain cautious and purchase tickets only through verified platforms.
