Grandstand tickets for the Monaco Grand Prix provide access to a variety of viewing points positioned around the circuit, each offering a different perspective on the race. Popular locations include Casino Square, Sainte Devote, and the harbourfront, where spectators can watch the cars navigate tight corners and high-speed sections against the backdrop of Monte Carlo.

Ticket categories typically range from general grandstand seating to more premium hospitality options, with some packages including access to private terraces, catering services, and dedicated viewing lounges.

Throughout the Monaco Grand Prix, Port Hercule operates under strict security protocols, with controlled entry points and regulated access to ensure the safety and privacy of guests, teams, and event organisers.

Access to the marina is limited to authorised personnel and pass holders, with different accreditation levels determining movement within specific zones. Charter guests staying aboard yachts are issued dedicated marina access passes, which provide entry to the harbour, quayside areas, and designated hospitality zones.

These passes allow guests to move seamlessly between their yacht and Monaco’s key locations, including waterfront restaurants, nearby grandstands, and central areas of Monte Carlo. Additional security checks are typically in place during peak periods, particularly on qualifying and race days.

Exact opening times for the 2027 Monaco Grand Prix will be announced closer to the event.

Traditionally, race weekend includes practice sessions and support races on Friday, qualifying sessions on Saturday, and the main Grand Prix race on Sunday afternoon.
