[LM24] What Did You Get For 2024? (General Ticketing Chat)

[Bentley03]

To twist the thread title and ask/answer 'What did you get RID OF for 2024?', I've now discovered why no grandstand seats have been coming up for sale on the ACO ticket resale site. It's because you can't resell your entry/grandstand combo tickets on there, only parking, camping and entry without grandstand, it seems. I've just sold Expo and Mulsanne/Arnage parking tickets on the resale site this morning, but I'm unable to sell entry+T23 grandstand seat.

Maybe this was common knowledge, but it's been puzzling me for months now.

I've got a General Entry, BSJ camping and T10 Siko ticket to spare. Should add the general entry is combined with the grandstand.

In the last few days the amount of tickets for sale on the aco site and on forums(pistonheads is awash with them) has gone balistic, bargains are starting to appear so if you were not going before you have the chance to do it on the cheap

Yeah, I've had about 160 notifications of resales on the Telegram app just today....

It’s driving me insane!

Also I’ve been wondering with the ACO member thing to get in the enclosures what do you do? Turn up with your card and then they give you wrist bands? Or am I way off?

Not been for five years - I feel like a novice. Do they still give you bits of card to get in and out?

There is the option to mute the notifications on Telegram. When I last checked, it had racked up well over a thousand since I'd hit my 'driving me insane' threshold and muted it.

Best option for collecting members enclosure wristbands depends upon when you arrive.

3-8 June 10am-6pm from the Museum.
7 and 8 June from the ACO tent at scrutineering.
9 June (Test Day) then 11 June onwards from the reception at either the La Chapelle enclosure or outside Georges Durand (T17) during opening hours.

In 2021 they sent all the wristbands to members by post, which was great, then last year I discovered that I could pick them up at the ACO tent at scrutineering, which made me wonder how many years they've doing this, as it was far easier than joining the often very long queues at the circuit trying to pick them up before the cars hit the track for first practice (which for me is always quite an emotional moment, but that's me, a big softy).

you also have to purchase the adittional option to the membership to gain acces, just having the basic membership is no longer enough

Got tickets this week after returning from wedding in Cyprus T05 Goodyear rang B - hopefully stewards there.

Think I have parking at Panorama and I think ACO upgrade but need to check. Wrong ferry on return but now sorted - we only booked last August so not sure why problem

Packing for another trip before LM and LM this week

New tyres and service plus software update for LM car
Pretty much everything new around engine on family car (following low loader trip on way home from another trip) plus new fronts and a service on 3rd in last week plus a trip to Go Outdoors for new camping table and some lights - so hopefully pretty much all sorted now
