You can go to lemansrace.com and only get a phone number to call with extra charges, or ticket.lemans.org to just buy the damn things online.

Why two websites? Is one not legit or something? Their SEO is shit if you search “24 hours le mans tickets”, since most of the top results are just the one with a phone number. WTF?

Le Sigh...

Thanks, I’m trying to go through it, but even making an account I can’t find the country option of USA. Everything is in french too.

Thank god you linked English, apparently I was being dumb and was going through the french site translated by google, where USA was actually listed.

It was really easy when I went in 2013.

The first URL you gave is for a travel agent (it’s actually the one that’s advertised on Radio Le Mans regularly), not the actual ACO ticketing site.

Please do! Are you camping? I really want to but I don’t even know how you make that happen.

My French is beyond appalling, I spent maybe a half hour driving in Montreal and couldn’t deal. Trying to visit France to camp and watch a race is incomprehensible at the moment.

I am not camping, but a friend has and really really suggested camping during the week through the weekend for all the activities.

It is the same as buying regular tickets, you just book for camping in a certain area. With such an international event, I don’t think French is 100% necessary though I’ll have to let you know about that in June LOL.
