I'm still awaiting a reply as to why my membership number is not working at checkout.  >:( >:(

Have you tried loggin into your account first - does it let you in, and say the account is valid?
Baldrick, my Lord! But I can change it to Ploppy if it'll make things easier.

Tried that. Nice Lady at the ACO has sorted us out with a temp membership number that has worked. Sadly the Epinettes in my basket have long gone so we now have a double pitch in Prairie to luxuriate upon. As long as we are there... we have bicycles to get around on :angel:

Hopefully not in the part that floods in case.

Um which bit is that?  I’d best pack a spade for ditch digging activities!

The red section.

Houx is over the road from it and the circuit is on your left.

So just out of curiosity, I've just been on the ticket site again.

    Full week general entry tickets still available
    Still showing campsite availability for Beasejour, Clos Fleuri, Cormier, Prairie, Hippodrome 30 - all others sold out
    All parking places surprisingly still available but full week Expo and Panorama showing 'limited availability'
    All grandstands sold out

Just seen this on one one the ticket agencies:

'Prices are based on 2023 plus any ACO inflation increase'

I imagine there will be a few surprised customers ;D

From the ACO this morning -

From November 15, the ticket office will open to the general public, and new "Week Admission + Grandstand" Tickets will go on sale. You will access this new opportunity to get tickets.

From the ACO on FB -

Tickets go on general sale tomorrow – book early to be sure not to miss out! 💥
We are expecting to sell out quicker than ever before given the rush for tickets by ACO Members. 😎

Information for tomorrow:


Some grandstand packages and camping passes have been set aside for general sale.
You can purchase up to 6 tickets and two through the Green Ticket initiative.
As ACO Members have snapped up all available grandstand seats, tickets for a new grandstand at La Chapelle will go on general sale.

"given the rush for tickets by ACO Members." - so Monsieur ACO, you mean that artificially-induced rush that didn't need to happen whatsoever? I guess so.

I do have to go back on tomorrow AM and attempt to get another couple of GE/GS tickets for some late-comers.

Hopeing that I might get them at least in the same Grandstand, at a push the same block!

 ???

Will post update tomorrow!

For anyone hoping for something new or held back from the members ticketing... sorry.  Only the Chapelle grandstand which the ACO referred to yesterday.  Camping still BSJ, Prairie, Cormier and Clos Fleuri.  No more full week parking tickets - all sold out.

If you don't get in quick for those Chapelle GS tickets, I fear they'll be gone pretty soon.

* UPDATE *

Ayse is right - only Chapelle left today.
Managed to bag another 4 tickets.
Looks like it is unallocated seating - and tickets say it is not covered.
It was for sure this year.......

Going to have 2 Spare GE / GS at some point now..........

Unallocated, that's strange.  I know I've sat in that stand with a cover.....
