Fan Tokens consist of:
(a) the base token that provides access to the Base Token Benefits and the opportunity to purchase Experience Tokens (Base Token); and
(b) experience tokens (that provide access to the ability to purchase and register for Experiences (Experience Tokens),
as each are further defined and detailed in clause 3.
You must purchase and hold a Base Token to purchase Experience Tokens – 1.3 Experience Tokens cannot be bought on their own.
1.4 Together, where the context permits, the:
(a) Base Token and Experience Tokens are referred to as ‘Fan Tokens’; and
(b) Base Token Benefits and Experiences are referred to as ‘Fan Token Benefits',
throughout these Terms of Use.
1.5 You can participate in Access24 via the Power’d responsive web app, available via desktop and mobile browsers (Platform).
1.6 You can purchase all Fan Tokens as and when they go on sale on the Platform.
2. ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS AND OTHER RULES
2.1 By purchasing Fan Tokens, accepting any Fan Tokens as a gift and/or otherwise using any Fan Token Benefits, you confirm that you have read, understood and agree to comply with:
(a) these Terms of Use;
(b) any terms and conditions applicable to your use of the Platform, including payment for your purchases and gifting of Fan Tokens (Platform Terms);
(c) any Fan Token Benefit-specific rules set out in the description of an Experience or other Fan Token Benefit (Benefit Rules);
(d) any Event attendance conditions, as amended by AGPC from time to time (displayed at Event entrances, viewable at www.grandprix.com.au and available by contacting AGPC) (Attendance Conditions);
(e) the terms and conditions governing any Trade Promotions (Competition Terms); and/or
(f) any other conditions, legislation and/or requirements specified in the Platform Terms, these Terms of Use, the Attendance Conditions or otherwise imposed by AGPC,
collectively, the ‘Access Rules’.
2.2 We may amend the Access Rules at any time. When we make changes, we will post the revised Access Rules on the relevant websites. You should review the Access Rules from time to time.
2.3 Any breach by you of the Access Rules may result, at AGPC’s sole and absolute discretion, in:
(a) your Fan Tokens being burned (i.e. permanently deleted and destroyed);
(b) AGPC refusing to fulfil a Fan Token Benefit; and/or
(c) you being refused entry to the Venue, or directed to leave the Venue,
with no further liability to you.
3. BASE TOKENS AND EXPERIENCE TOKENS
3.1 As set out in clause 1, Fan Tokens within the Access24 program consist of the Base Token and the Experience Tokens.
3.2 You must have a Base Token in order to purchase Experience Tokens – ie. you must either purchase a Base Token or be gifted one. Once you have a Base Token, you will have the ability to purchase any Experience Tokens that are available from time to time.
3.3 Base Tokens enable access to the following benefits:
(a) pre-sale ticket window access for the FORMULA 1 AUSTRALIAN GRAND PRIX 2025;
(b) access to purchase (for an additional fee) certain Experience Tokens;
(c) access to purchase (for an additional fee) 1 x Pit Lane Walk Experience Token;
(d) 1 x Thursday Park Pass ticket for FORMULA 1 ROLEX AUSTRALIAN GRAND PRIX 2024; and
(e) a 5% at-track merchandise discount,
together, the Base Token Benefits.
3.4 Experience Tokens represent access to a specific experience provided by AGPC (or third party providers) at the Venue or outside of the Venue (each an Experience). The Experiences that are available to purchase are detailed on the Platform. AGPC may release new Experiences after the launch of Access24 from time to time. These new Experiences will be communicated to Access24 account holders.
3.5 An Experience Token ties to a specific Experience and therefore you can only redeem an Experience Token for the Experience that it is tied to. For example, you may purchase an Experience Token for a Pit Lane Walk and you can only redeem that Experience Token for the Pit Lane Walk. Further, the details, location, times and capacity are different for each Experience, and therefore each Experience Token has different characteristics in terms of quantity, price and redemption processes. Such details will be set out in the Benefit Rules for each Experience.
3.6 Unless otherwise set out in the Benefit Rules for an Experience, holding one Experience Token grants one person access to that Experience. If a group of people want to access an Experience, each person in that group will need to have an individual Experience Token (although, one person may hold all of the Experience Tokens for a group in their Access24 account). For the Pit Lane Walk Experience, all individuals must also hold a Base Token to participate in the Experience (for example, if you want to purchase three Pit Lane Walk Experiences, you will need to purchase three Base Tokens and three Experience Tokens for the Pit Lane Walk).
3.7 The ability to purchase Experience Tokens, and therefore access all Experiences, is not guaranteed and Experience Tokens and Experiences are subject to availability. Experiences may only be available on particular days and there may be limited places available for certain Experiences, so you should purchase Experience Tokens as soon as they are made available to avoid missing out. Such details will be included in the applicable Benefit Rules.
3.8 All Fan Token Benefits are subject to the Event schedule, including the FIA and Formula 1® track schedule, and therefore may be substituted, rescheduled or cancelled, subject to clause 10.1. Where a Fan Token Benefit will be substituted, rescheduled or changed, we will notify you via the Platform and via email.
3.9 IMPORTANT: Fan Tokens do not provide entry to the Event or Venue. To access the Event, a separate event ticket is required which can be purchased here.
4. EXERCISING YOUR FAN TOKEN BENEFITS

(a) must be in possession of the relevant Experience Token to participate in the associated Experience (for example, if you have purchased an Experience Token for a Pit Lane Walk Experience, then gift that Experience Token, you no longer have the right to access that Experience);
(b) will receive credentials to access Fan Token Benefits, including Experiences, in your Access24 account, which may be in the form of a digital wallet pass which would need to be downloaded to either an Apple Wallet or Google Wallet on your phone, or other methods at Power’d and AGPCs’ discretion and communicated to you;

5.7 IMPORTANT: Access24 Fan Tokens are only valid for the 2024 Event and 2024 calendar year (including pre-sale benefits that apply to the 2025 event) and, Experience Tokens have no utility once they have been used and/or the Experience that they are held for has passed.
