C3 grandstands only left, few entrance tickets and the odd camping at BSJ or Clos keep popping up otherwise nothing

Seen many pictures in a group chat today that when people got in to buy tickets nothing is left

I emailed about the members area and adding an additional non member on completely sold out already ! (I though this used to be obligatory that you got the option of at least one non member)

I miss the days when you could bring in 3 more people for €15 each and any under 16s you had with you for free too, plus there was another members area before the ford chicane.

Way too many memberships being sold for the infrastructure available. The joy of WEC becoming so popular with the manufacturers I suppose.

They will keep something back to say "we sold out in record time"

Do you think they have any tickets left!

You never know they might have improved by 2026 and do tickets better. To me it is still good value compared to GP. Saddened that the campsite and ticket sales are such a shitshow. Having been on Terte Rouge and uncertainty about tickets, our group have split campsites, two of us have signed up for Team Langoustine, and the others are waiting for what the ticket agency have offered, find out mid December.
Since we have been going we have lost many campsites. Started camping on the Mulsanne behind the cafe. Official one closed without warning. Fortunately the farmer behind opened up. After a few years that closed. Another field was found, but we did not want to take the risk of that one closing so next year we had tickets for BSJ when you could camp in the field next to Porche curves. That went private campsite. Onwards to Technopark, 2 years and that closed. Then Maison Blanche and finally Terte Rouge.

For me, no magic has been lost at all.  It's still incredibly good value when you go for the full week.  And the races themselves have been vastly better over the last 2 years (and that's what I go for).  But the ticketing experience is becoming a lottery, even for those who have supported the ACO through thick and thin for many years.  That's what saddens me.  

You're right of course Geoff.  I suppose I can be grateful for the fact that I don't camp.  I have my accommodation sorted, car parking sorted too.  Trouble is that health issues now make it imperative for me to have a grandstand seat and the facilities on offer in T17/T18 make it a no brainer.  Booking for 2023 was fine, for 2024 not quite as good but I did OK, but this time, really bad.  As I said, if the playing field was completely even I'd take it with a pinch of salt, but hearing of people (in various parts of Europe) having secured their tickets long before the online ticket office was supposed to open - that simply isn't right.  

2 more days then the none ACO members get to tackle the incompetency. I mean people logged in ready to go that where ACO members and some people where in 2 hours before due to an error!

Trouble is, without a membership you are pretty much guaranteed to get nothing, whereas with a membership there is some chance of getting something close to want you want!

Grandstands and some of the campsites are the big problem, we didn't bother with grandstands for next year and managed to get the camping and parking we wanted, but only by getting in the queue early.
