From September 11 to 13 , Madrid will host the 2026 FORMULA 1 TAG HEUER SPANISH GRAND PRIX, the first edition of the race on the Madring Circuit’s semi-urban track. Coinciding with this event, La Azotea makes its debut—a hospitality venue that combines signature cuisine with privileged views of one of the circuit’s most talked-about turns.
The project was conceived by MATCH Hospitality, a company specializing in VIP experiences for major international sporting events. La Azotea is situated above La Monumental, the banked turn on the track that has generated excitement among drivers and fans alike due to its technical demands. The structure is organized across several floors, featuring a restaurant, a panoramic terrace, lounge areas, and an afterparty on Saturday evening.
What sets this venue apart is not only the concentration of Michelin-starred restaurants under one roof, but also its exact location: right above one of the most banked and photographed turns on Madrid’s new circuit.
