Italian Grand Prix Tickets

Monza sells around fifty grandstands, every one of them named in Italian, and it has no Gold or Silver tier system to guide you. Here is what each ticket type actually gets you, real prices for each stand, how single days compare with the full weekend, and an honest read on what is still available with the race two weeks away.

Sun, 6 SEP

Race day

Italian Grand Prix tickets start at around €119 for a single Saturday on the General Admission grass, and run past €5,000 for a three-day hospitality lounge. A three-day grandstand seat starts at roughly €375. Your choice comes down to two things: which days you want, and which corner you want to sit at.
Here is how we would pick, depending on what matters most to you.

  • You want the cheapest way in: General Admission, called Circolare Prato at Monza. You stand or sit on grass banking inside the circuit, and you can move between viewing areas across the day.
  • You want a seat without spending much: Grandstand 20, Rettilineo Parabolica Esterna. It is the cheapest reserved seat P1 Travel lists for the full weekend, and it looks onto the run out of the final corner.
  • You want the braking and the crashes: the Prima Variante stands, numbered 8A and 8B. This is where the cars arrive at over 340 km/h and stop for a tight chicane, and it is the most common place for first-lap contact.
  • You want the Tifosi at full volume – the Ascari stands, numbered 12 to 18. This section runs deep into the park, it is where the Ferrari flags are thickest, and it is quieter on price than the main straight.
  • You want the grid, the podium and the track invasion – the Laterale Destra stands, numbered 26A, 26B and 26C. They sit on the start-finish straight opposite the pit lane, they are covered, and they are among the closest seats to the track when the barriers open after the race.
  • You want lunch, a bar and shade: Hospitality. P1 Travel sells six Monza lounges, from the Race Club on Friday at €500 up to the Schumacher Lounge across all three days at €5,250.

WHERE TO SIT

Before you compare prices, it helps to know that Monza does not group its tickets the way most circuits do. There is no Gold, Silver or Bronze tier here. The circuit sells General Admission plus a long list of individually named and numbered grandstands, each priced on its own. Two extra product types sit on top of that, and both are sold by ticket partners rather than by the circuit itself.

General Admission (Circolare Prato)

Standing access to designated areas, with good views of the track between Turns 2 and 9. There are two GA zones (1 & 2). A couple of Zandvoort-specific rules catch people out:Circolare Prato is Monza’s General Admission ticket. It gives you access to the grass banking on the inside of the circuit, with viewing areas spread around Curva Grande, both Lesmo corners, the approach to the Ascari chicane and the entry to the final corner. There is no reserved spot and no allocated seat.

This ticket includes: entry to the circuit for your chosen day or days, access to all General Admission grass areas, and access to the fan zone.

Not included: a seat, a numbered place, shade, or a guaranteed view of a screen. Screens are only visible from some parts of the Prato.

Best for: fans on a budget, and anyone who would rather move around the circuit than commit to one corner. We recommend you arrive early on race day, because the good banking fills up long before the race starts.

  • Grandstand-ticket holders do NOT get GA access here – unlike most circuits – because of limited capacity. GA is its own separate ticket.
  • GA still includes fan-zone and performance access.

Best for: budget fans who want to be in the dunes for the atmosphere and don’t mind standing.

Grandstands

There is one exception worth knowing. The official price list marks Grandstand GF, Gradinate Interno Parabolica, as unnumbered. You get into the stand, but you choose your row and seat when you arrive, so arriving early still matters.

This ticket includes: a reserved seat in the stand printed on your ticket, entry to the circuit, and access to the fan zone.

Not included: access to any other grandstand, and in most stands, shade. Only a handful of Monza grandstands are covered.

Best for: anyone who wants a guaranteed view of one part of the circuit. Since the price gap between the cheapest and dearest stands is very large at Monza, this is the category where doing a little homework pays off most.

Grandstand with Open Bar

This ticket includes: a grandstand seat and open bar access for the day or days you book.

Not included: the lounge, the catering and the trackside terraces that come with the hospitality lounges below. We have not been able to confirm which physical grandstand this product uses, so we recommend you check that detail at checkout before you book.

Hospitality

Monza’s hospitality is sold through partners rather than directly to the public, and P1 Travel lists six lounges. Race Club is a private suite beside the starting grid with a view of the pit stops. Dolce Vita Lounge is a trackside terrace at the final corner. SGP Club pairs an off-site lounge with a seat in Grandstand 22 and a shuttle bus. Schumacher Lounge is air-conditioned, sits behind Grandstand 6A at Turn 1, and displays Michael Schumacher memorabilia. Garden Lounge and Fans Club both combine a lounge with a trackside grandstand seat.

This ticket includes: lounge access, an open bar, a served lunch, and a reserved seat or terrace, depending on which lounge you pick.

Not included: paddock access. Monza does not sell paddock passes to the public at all.

Best for: corporate guests, and anyone who wants to sit down in the shade on a hot September afternoon in Italy.

COST OF GP WEEKEND

The table below shows what P1 Travel is charging for the full three-day weekend, stand by stand. Monza prices vary far more between stands than at most circuits, so the same weekend can cost you €375 or €2,050 depending only on where you sit.

How to read this: these are per-person prices for the full Friday to Sunday weekend. Prices move with demand and availability, and the cheaper stands tend to disappear first, so please confirm the live price before you book. Single-day prices are further down the page.

Monza keeps this simple. Every ticket type, General Admission included, is sold either as a three-day weekend pass or as a single day for Friday, Saturday or Sunday. There are no two-day combinations from the circuit and no packages that add a tour or a pit walk.

Single-day prices show you how much the weekend is really about Sunday.

A few things are worth knowing before you choose.

Friday is the value day, and not only on price. Friday tickets are the cheapest of the weekend, and Monza has traditionally run Friday as a free-roam day. That means a Friday ticket has let fans sit in almost any grandstand they like, with Grandstand 1 Centrale the usual exception. If you are deciding between stands for a future visit, Friday is the day to try them out. We should flag that the circuit has not published this rule for 2026, so please treat it as the long-standing pattern rather than a guarantee.

Saturday is the cheapest day with real competition. Qualifying decides the grid, the support races run, and Saturday General Admission at €119 is the lowest entry price of the weekend at P1 Travel.

Sunday costs the most and sells out first. Race day carries the highest single-day price at every stand, and General Admission for Sunday is already gone at P1 Travel.

The three-day pass is one ticket, not three. Monza issues the weekend pass as a single coupon that cannot be split by day. You cannot give Friday to one person and Sunday to another, which is a real difference from some other rounds.

Availability, honestly. The Autodromo Nazionale Monza currently states that only Friday 4 September and Saturday 5 September remain on sale through its own channels. Sunday and the three-day pass appear to be gone at the source. If you want race day or the full weekend, an official reseller is now the realistic route, and we would not pretend otherwise.

Autodromo Nazionale Monza, 5.793 km, 11 corners, and the fastest circuit on the Formula 1 calendar. Cars run at full throttle for around 80% of the lap and reach top speed on the 1.1 km start-finish straight. Key viewing spots: the Prima Variante (Turn 1, the heaviest braking zone of the year), the Roggia chicane, the two Lesmo corners, the Variante Ascari sequence, and Curva Alboreto*, the long final corner still widely called the Parabolica. General Admission areas run along the inside of the circuit.

Weekend schedule

All times local (CEST). Italy is CEST = UK + 1 hour = US Eastern + 6 hours in September. The 2026 Italian Grand Prix is a standard weekend, so there is no Sprint. Formula 2, Formula 3 and the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup all support the race.

Where to sit: a quick orientation

A short orientation here. For the full stand-by-stand ranking, please see our dedicated guide.

  • Grandstand 1 Centrale – the start line. The grid, the lights and the first launch. It is Monza’s most expensive stand and it is covered.
  • Grandstands 26A, 26B and 26C Laterale Destra – the pit straight. The pit lane opposite, the podium to the right, and covered seats. Popular with anyone who wants to reach the track invasion quickly.
  • Grandstands 8A and 8B Prima Variante – Turn 1. The heaviest braking of the season and the most likely place to see first-lap contact.
  • Grandstand 22 Parabolica – the final corner. Covered, permanent, and the most complete view of Curva Alboreto from entry to exit.
  • Grandstand 16 Ascari – the Ascari chicane. A fast, technical sequence deep in the park, and one of the best-value premium views on the lap.
  • Grandstand GF Gradinate Interno Parabolica – inside the final corner. Monza’s cheapest stand, and unnumbered, so arrive early for a good row.

Buying tickets at Monza: what to know before you check out

Your ticket has no name on it. Monza issues bearer tickets rather than named ones, so a ticket you cannot use can be passed to somebody else. This is unusual on the Formula 1 calendar and it makes buying for a group much simpler.

There is a limit of ten tickets per account. That limit includes any promotional tickets, and the circuit does not sell group tickets to the public at all.

You can leave and come back. Entry and exit are allowed as many times as you like during the day, though you will need to show your ticket at access control each time.

You can upgrade from Prato to a seat. If you hold a single-day General Admission ticket for Friday or Saturday, the circuit lets you buy a grandstand upgrade, either online or at the ticket offices on the day. Sunday and three-day passes are excluded. You must show both your original General Admission ticket and the upgrade at the gate.

Two discount routes exist, and both close early. American Express cardholders get presale access, and ACI members get a reduced rate on selected stands. Both open long before the race, so they are worth knowing for 2027 rather than for this year.

Stick to official channels. The circuit’s own site, TicketOne, formula1.com and authorised resellers are the safe routes. With Sunday sold out at the source, unofficial marketplaces carry a real risk of invalid tickets.

First time at Monza? Read this before you pick a ticket

Three things shape the Monza experience, and each one should influence which ticket you buy.

The Tifosi are the point. Ferrari’s home race draws the loudest and most partisan crowd of the season. If atmosphere matters more to you than sightlines, the Ascari and Prima Variante sections deliver it more cheaply than the main straight does.

The track invasion is a tradition, not a promise. After the race, fans have long been allowed onto the circuit to gather beneath the podium once the cars are cleared. It depends on race control and security on the day, so it is never guaranteed. If joining it matters to you, the stands nearest the start-finish straight get there first.

September in Lombardy is hot, and Monza has very little shade. Only a small number of stands are covered. If you burn easily or you are bringing children, we strongly advise you to check whether your chosen stand has a roof before you book, rather than after.
