Who gets grandstand tiggits?

[SlimDK]

Does anyone know of ways to get hold of Mobil or Audi grandstand tickets without having to go through ticket agencies? They'll insist you buy camping, ferry tickets or whatever and they are hiking the prices right up. I'm being quoted double this year compared with just 2 years ago! Shame really.

Anyone have any luck buying direct from ACO?

How do you get into the Blue campsite these days?

Roll on June 14th.

... wait, 'till ACO says that you've got something ! And it's not always what you ordered...

I'm afraid averything is sold out for the moment... have to wait for canceling, but the waiting lists are soooooo long...

You just have to have a very good (and kind) French friend.

Funny that, the amount we have paid for the grandstand/Entrance has not gone up by much at all in since 95 when we first used the grandstand it always ends up being about £120 or less.
Last year we got the Grandstand from Page & Moy & Camping from Just Tickets, true we did end up with more entrance tickets than we needed but was able to flog them without a problem.

The agents are just that agents and at the end of the day need to make their margin like any other commercial company. If you don't want to pay for that peace of mind then you must go thru the A.C.O and let the fates decide what tickets you end up with.

Just to know, because I don't need to use them : do the agencies still have grandstands tickets in GB, or do they say it's all sold out too right now ?

I'm seeking for a White park ticket, but I'm on the waiting list... they sold me an Exhibition parking lot ticket (Parc des Expositions) for the moment, which is numbered as the white, but much more far (especially when you're freezing in the pits grandstands !)...

Now then Fab, I don't want to hear any of this talk about freezing at Le Mans. It will be gloriously sunny, so hot you could fry your eggs and bacon on the roof of a Bentley......

Are you sure you're not confusing with Paris-Dakar ?
