Access via Suzuka Circuit Ino Station

The nearest station to Suzuka Circuit is the "Suzuka Circuit Inou" station on the "Ise Railway" that connects JR Yokkaichi Station and Tsu Station. It takes about 20 minutes to walk from the station to Suzuka Circuit. Since there are few trains, the congestion on the way back can be severe, but it is a valuable access route that can be reached on foot.

Access via Kintetsu Shirako Station

Kintetsu Shirako Station, where many Kintetsu limited express trains stop every hour, is the most important access point. You can take a shuttle bus to Suzuka Circuit from the station, so there's no need to worry about getting lost. During busy times, you may have to wait about an hour, but buses arrive one after another at the bus stop, so the line for the bus keeps moving. After the race, the line for the bus also extends right after the event ends, but at the same time, multiple buses depart continuously.

Direct Reservation Bus

In 2025, direct reservation buses will operate from major stations across the country. Using this service allows you to avoid congestion on your way to SUZUKA CIRCUIT. Return transportation is also secured, providing a reliable means of access. Although departure times are fixed, the biggest advantage is that once you board, you will be taken directly to your destination. It makes travel easy, so it is recommended for first-timers or those unsure about how to get there.

How to access by car or motorcycle?

If this is your first time attending, we do not recommend arriving by car, but we understand that some may need to access the venue by car. The biggest issue when driving is securing parking. We recommend reserving a parking space in advance. Be sure to secure a parking spot using the directly managed parking lot of SUZUKA CIRCUIT or the parking share service "Toku P". For motorcycles, parking is available in the front parking lot. Please proceed to the motorcycle parking area from the "Bus and Taxi Gate," which is closest to the Main Gate.

Avoid using the Suzuka IC access route

The closest interchange to Suzuka Circuit is Suzuka IC, but there is usually heavy traffic on the routes used here, especially on the way back, where the traffic jam can stretch endlessly. For those accessing via Aichi Prefecture, it is recommended to use "Mie Kawagoe IC" or "Yokkaichi Higashi IC". From the Hokuriku area, accessing from "Ogaki IC" is also recommended. If you are coming via Shiga Prefecture, "Koka Toyama IC" is recommended, although there may be some traffic, using "Kameyama IC" can also be an option. From Nara Prefecture, "Seki IC" on the Meihan Expressway is convenient.
