Sold some tickets a couple of weeks ago, money was refunded to the payment card, took about 3 days to show up. The wording on the ACO email is rather confusing!
Exactly the same for me.

I believe that there is already a viewing area near there, but only for corporate VIP's. Even if they did build one, I would be surprised if it were for the likes of us plebs.
+1 on this. The ACO have spent years trying to keep us away from the Mulsanne.... I can't see any reason why they would encourage us to go there now.

Club Arnage / Sell Or Swap / Le Mans 2025 - Three Grandstand Seats Needed (Potential Trade).
|
on: December 05, 2024, 08:48:22 pm
|
The arrival of my hard copy tickets today (yes, I remain old fashioned in that regard) reminds me that I was unsuccessful in getting what I need. I'm on the lookout for THREE grandstand seats together, ideally in T17/T18 but elsewhere if that's not possible. I have tickets for two seats together in T17, two more together in T18 and one single T18 ticket. To my surprise these have arrived as separate tickets (separate from the entry tickets). It is likely that I will also have two full week entry tickets for sale in due course as well.
NB I'm not looking to sell any of the tickets I have got yet (although I do have a potential offer already for the T17 tickets), I am looking for some kind of trade so that the three in my 'party' can actually sit together at the start/finish. Thanks.

probably put a new post in the for sale / wanted part as it will be clear as day light to people looking then rather than in here  Fingers crossed you get what's needed mind. Thanks Kev - I completely forgot about that - Doh!

Pierre Fillon, hang you head in shame
He ought to be ashamed! I'm another who will not be returning in 2025 after 22 years attending. Huge price rises, to crowded and it's lost it's magic IMHO. For me, no magic has been lost at all. It's still incredibly good value when you go for the full week. And the races themselves have been vastly better over the last 2 years (and that's what I go for). But the ticketing experience is becoming a lottery, even for those who have supported the ACO through thick and thin for many years. That's what saddens me.

Trouble is, without a membership you are pretty much guaranteed to get nothing, whereas with a membership there is some chance of getting something close to want you want!
Grandstands and some of the campsites are the big problem, we didn't bother with grandstands for next year and managed to get the camping and parking we wanted, but only by getting in the queue early.
You're right of course Geoff. I suppose I can be grateful for the fact that I don't camp. I have my accommodation sorted, car parking sorted too. Trouble is that health issues now make it imperative for me to have a grandstand seat and the facilities on offer in T17/T18 make it a no brainer. Booking for 2023 was fine, for 2024 not quite as good but I did OK, but this time, really bad. As I said, if the playing field was completely even I'd take it with a pinch of salt, but hearing of people (in various parts of Europe) having secured their tickets long before the online ticket office was supposed to open - that simply isn't right.

Better than last year, I would say..........
Not for me - compared to last year it was a complete disaster. Was in and waiting long before 10 am CET and of course then got bounced out and was made to wait the best part of an hour to get back in again. By that time there was next to nothing left in T17/T18. I ended up with 2 tickets together in T17, 2 tickets together in T18 and a single 'orphan' ticket in T18. A lot of use when there will be three of us. Complete shambles with tales of people getting in to the online ticketing and buying tickets long before the 10 am start. Like pretzel, I'm beginning to wonder why I am bothering to maintain my 27 year membership of the ACO. This year it has got me absolutely nowhere.
