One property. The next chapter.

GRID+CLUB is the new F1inTO.

Same room. Same crew. Same race-day noise. F1inTO became the biggest race day in Toronto, and GRID+CLUB is what comes next: a new name and a club built around that room, so the people who fill it every race have somewhere to belong between them.

The letters

Three letters. Three crews.

Pick your lane, or take all three. Every GRID+CLUB newsletter has its own crowd, its own voice and its own reason to open it.

  • Letter 01Race week

    RACEDROPS

    The week of every race: where to be, what is on and how to get in. Read it, then clear your weekend.

  • Letter 02Community

    A letter and a community for women in Toronto’s racing world. Find your people, then find them a seat on race day.

  • Letter 03Between races

    Everything between race weekends. The season does not stop when the flag drops, and neither do we.

What members get

Get in. Get more.

Tickets for every race weekend, a free pass that gets you in first, prize drops in the room, every race day in pictures and a crew to run it with. All of it lands at launch.

  1. 01 Race-day box office

    Tickets for every race weekend.

    Seated, bar or walk-in: pick how you watch, book it in a tap and skip the scramble on race day.

    • Seated: Your own seat, eyes on the big screen
    • Bar: Up at the bar, in the thick of it
    • Walk-in: Turn up, get in, find your crowd

  2. 02 Grid Pass

    Free. And first in.

    The free tier of the club. Priority invites, prize drops and first dibs on race days, for signing up.

  3. 03 Prize drops

    Be in the room. Be in the draw.

    Prize drops land live on race day, on the big screens, in front of everyone. You have to be there.

  4. 04 Season albums

    Find yourself the morning after.

    An album for every race, ready to share the morning after. Tag the crew, relive the finish.

  5. 05 The crew

    Run race day with us.

    The volunteer crew programme puts you on the inside: the door, the draws, the app, the room. Want in? Say so on the waitlist.

  6. Waitlist open

    Put your name down at gridclub.ca. When GRID+CLUB launches, the list hears it first.

Own the room, not just the night.

Most activations end when the lights come up. A property keeps going: the same people come back, the list grows, the content compounds and every partner gets a year of attention instead of an evening.

We took F1inTO over, built it into Toronto’s biggest race day and are now growing it into GRID+CLUB, from the race-day checklist to the club. So we know what it takes. If your brand wants a community it owns, we can build it, run it and hand you the keys.

GRID+CLUB and F1inTO are independent fan communities run by Culture Cartel Live. They are not affiliated with Formula 1 or the FIA.
