[LM24] Questions about booking?

[JoshuaLeMans]

Hi there, I was currently booking my second trip to Le Mans but this time I'm camping and I kept on getting some errors on some things.

Firstly, When I tried to select my campsite it said that the only one available is AA EPINETTES. As I wanted to go for the Green section so therefore I'm close to the Village and the Paddocks if I wanted a trip into the areas later in the evening.

Secondly, When I finished our booking and tried to select the delivery it kept on saying that I can't go for either ENVOI SECURISE EUROPE/MONDE when I obviously do live in both Europe and the World. As I live in the United Kingdom. Scotland in fact.

So if someone could help me with this it would be grateful for me and my family.

Houx/TR/Maison Blanche/Bleu/etc. are sold out already from the website and can only be acquired through agencies sadly.

hi joshua,

as victor says, unfortunately most of the campsites have already sold out if you buy directly from the aco. if you're looking for another site your best bet is to contact one of the official ticket agents like 1st tickets or travel destinations who can put you on their presale list. it does cost more but you're much more likely to be able to secure the tickets you want.

regarding ticket delivery, it might be easier just to collect the tickets when you arrive at the circuit unless you and the family are doing a quick trip. that's what i'm doing with our grandstand tickets, we'll pitch up and then head over when we arrive.

Cheers guys. Booked my tickets now!

Another question for you guys. Are people allowed to stay in the campsite for another night on the Sunday. As I don't really want to drive back on the Sunday to be really tired as I will have been awake for well over 24 hours.

you can, but depending on which site you're in will depend on how much of your stuff you will want to have locked away safely in the boot away from prying eyes and grubby hands. if you get my drift.

personally i drive back on the sunday evening fine, with a couple of hours kip overnight during the race. but i also do calais-austria in one hit, so ymmv

As said the campsites start to empty pretty quick on sunday, but the more secure sites will still have plenty of people around on sunday so if you can try and get a space on one of them

I can't speak for what Epinettes will be like in terms of pitches/security/facilities but location-wise it's a decent shout. Not really a lot worse than either Houx site - it's just across the road in fact from what I can tell.

Easy access to the trams and supermarkets. I'd rather camp there than a lot of sites.

Yes, Epinettes should be a good choice.
There is always security risk especially on sundayevening, because of that we stay at our campsite and let the whole week pas by again. Love it.

Yep, made that mistake a couple of years back.
Went to a bar after the race, came back after a couple of drinks to find my entire tent gone.
Luckily all my stuff was in my car boot (except sleeping bag), but my brother had left his worn clothes in there and lost quite a bit.

Still, wouldn't expect someone to steal the actual tent though.
