Paddock
Garages, pit lane and a circuit lap.
The house reading
The oldest and narrowest race on the calendar, where overtaking is almost impossible and everything therefore happens on Saturday.
Qualifying matters more than the race. That is where the perfect lap decides Sunday, and Saturday is when the city has its best night.
Watching from the right terrace, or from a boat moored in Port Hercule, changes the experience entirely.

Where to stay
In 2027, EXPLORA I berths in Port Hercule from 2 to 7 June, around 150 metres from the circuit. The suite becomes your box.
ReadingSee the cruiseWhat changes in 2027
The 84th Grand Prix brings the most significant change to this circuit in decades. Monaco joins the ten sprint weekends, and gains two separate qualifying sessions, one on Friday and one on Saturday. On a track where overtaking is close to impossible and grid position decides the race, that changes what each day of the weekend is worth.
With two qualifying sessions, Friday and Saturday become decisive days. Anyone arriving only for Sunday misses the most dramatic part of the weekend.
Monaco is the first European round of the season, straight after Canada. The whole city shifts into race mode before the week even starts.
It is the smallest capacity on the calendar. Grandstand, terrace and boat are three different races.
Access
Monaco is the race where the place matters more than the ticket. The list below is what we arrange end to end, from the track to the early hours.

Circuit reading
A concise view of the places named on this page, from arrival in the principality to four perspectives on the circuit.
Garages, pit lane and a circuit lap.
Braking point and run to the tunnel.
Start, Rascasse and the pool.
Boat and finish line.
Conceptual map, not to scale. Each point marks an access perspective described on this page.
Paddock access, team garages, pit lane and a lap of the circuit, with service across the whole weekend.
TrackThe terrace over the most photographed corner in the world, looking down on the braking point and the run to the tunnel.
TerraceEach sector shows a different race. We say which one is for the start, which for the Rascasse and which for the pool.
GrandstandMoored inside the circuit, with service on board and the finish line in front of you. Where the race becomes a whole day.
SeaThe weekend’s classic after party, plus the team dinners and the sponsor nights.
NightThe long Saturday lunch and the night that does not end. Table reserved, entering by the right door.
NightSeven minutes between the airport and the Monaco heliport, both ways. On race weekend it is the only predictable transfer.
ArrivalWe arrange every one of these categories, and confirm in writing what is already secured before any payment. Anything that depends on a third party’s invitation is named as such in the proposal, never presented as settled.
Thursday 3 June
Formula 2 practice in the afternoon and the track reopening to the public at 7.30pm. The only day you can walk the circuit, and the best night to eat without fighting for a table.
Friday 4 June
With the sprint format, Friday is no longer a warm-up. The day ends with a qualifying session that sets a grid.
Saturday 5 June
A short race in the morning, main qualifying in the afternoon, and the fullest night of the year in town. The day that separates those who came to watch from those who came to take part.
Sunday 6 June
Drivers’ parade and the honour lap with the Prince before the start. Afterwards, the harbour and the terraces run straight into the night.
Days and times follow the Automobile Club de Monaco schedule and may change. We confirm in writing what is secured in each access category before any payment.
The difference
The date is public. What changes is everything around it, and who answers on the other end when something goes off plan.
A grandstand shows you the race. Paddock, garage and grid show you how it happens. We work the access first, then everything else.
Dinners, team parties and terraces over the circuit. That is where a race becomes a trip.
A closed circuit means impossible traffic. We set the timings and the routes beforehand, so you do not miss the start.
A schedule change, rain, a delayed flight. One person follows it from the first message to the flight home.
How it works
You tell us the date, how many are travelling and what you would like to see.
We check real availability of access, hotel and table, and send the proposal in writing.
We adjust until it is right. Only then is there a booking and payment.
Frequently asked
It depends on the date and on what you want. In the proposal we confirm in writing only what is already secured. When something still rests with third parties, we say so plainly rather than promise it.
There is no price list, because each trip is built once. The figure depends on the access category, the stay and the number of guests. The proposal itemises everything, with no obligation.
Yes. Groups change the logistics and sometimes open doors that do not exist for two people: a whole house, a private table, a boat. Tell us the number when you write.
Event calendars change, and that is not ours to control. When they do, we rebuild whatever can be rebuilt and tell you at once what is refundable and what is not, according to each supplier’s rules.
