When logged in on the tickets site rather than the member site I think, anyway that's where I found mine.

Mine were available 20 minutes after I bought them yesterday, but that may be because I bought 'hard copy' tickets....

Ruddy hello what a shambles, was promised Houx camping by the ACO last month and had the email on tuesday headed up HOUX tickets but yesterday could not find the actual tickets in my account to pay for them, anyway bought race tickets as knew i had suitable camping. Sent email to aco to enquire how to see the camping tickets got reply today and also found tickets in my account, and they are for Houx annex not Houx, to far to walk for Kevin, they have not charged me for them (never had free tickets before). Have sent another email to ACO

Depending on where you are located on the site of H or HA the walk is less. The end og H is relatively close to the spacetower, half way H you need to cross over the track through a bridge. From HA if they open all gates you have the same issues with tunnel and stairs.Both are a long intense walk, without mobile help I think the sites are not suitable for invalide.
Just my opinion.

If you don't have them taken back I would prefer the Annexe to my current Beausejour pitch ;-)

So, as mentioned earlier, we have ended up with two tickets together in T17, plus two tickets together in T18 plus another single ticket in T18. These will all be hard copy tickets combined of course with full week general entry tickets. So we have choices to make (most of them fairly unpalatable) about where we will watch the start and finish from (in the knowledge that as soon as the seats start to thin out, we can sit where we like while the normal occupants are missing). The alternative is now to spend the next several weeks and months trying to find some better tickets. I'll probably start with an email to the ACO to see if they can do anything to help a member of 27 years who has been completely shafted.... Otherwise the initial plan of action would be to try and find another T17 ticket near to the two I have - or three T18 tickets together. So that's my starter for ten, if anyone has anything that might fit the bill that they'd be happy to sell or swap.

Frankly I doubt I'll use my Siko ticket apart from the start, but because it's bound into the GE I'm stuck with it. All I could select was a "tier 1" tribune and they just allocated it to me. Couldn't even select Dunlop or anywhere else.

I do have the club area pass so can at least use those.

If we are the norm then I suspect the resale area will be quite busy when it opens.

[Aysedasi]

The ACO tell me that all grandstands are now sold out. I’m assuming that means nothing left for non-members next week….

[Peter Mallett]

Or agents?

I think the agents will have been protected like last year.

Wasn't an extra grandstand built last year because the same thing happened?

[Aysedasi]

Yes, the unnumbered one. But I'm sure I saw that when I was in the ticketing page. It might be that they've kept some seats in there back as a sop to the general public.

Now sorted, 2 race tickets and 2 Houx camping, sorry claude but they took the annex ones back

If course they did, they may be incompetent but they are not stupid, especially if they can make more money ? It's good you got what you need

As i am now sorted and the ACO have been very generous i have said i will donate the cost of my camping tickets to the charity supported by the ACO (childrens heart foundation). At my suggestion the ACO have said they will try and arrange a presentation during le mans week to show both the ACO and le mans fans in a good light. I am sure some of those at the circuit might like to attend

Good for you Simon Having said that, right now I'm not in much of a mood to celebrate my 27 year old membership of the ACO....

[MartinSmith]

Unfortunately my father in law passed away this week... and I Missed tuesday... I have managed to get me and my son two full week tickets... but that is all, no thing else left for Tribunes, parking and/ore Espace priv areas

ce la ve as we say in spain

[Peter Mallett]

Condolences for your loss Martin. I suspect there will be plenty of tickets on the resale site in the new year. Fingers crossed.

There are tickets coming up on the resale site already - quite a few parking tickets. Those who used the Telegram app last year will find that it is now working again for next year's race tickets.

[Peter Mallett]

Some campsites too. Have to be quick though.

Thanks for the heads up. My brother is on the scrounge for a parking ticket.
