As per the previous post any hospitatility provided by the works team will be for guests of Porsche AG only.
It may be that next year we may se some paid for hospitatility?
My brothers household is a 4 Porsche car family. Has been for 15 years, with each vehicle being changed for new every 3 years. The cars are: brand new 991 Turbo, brand new 911S, brand new Boxster and a Cayenne Turbo S (to be changed for new later this year). All bought via JCT600 in Leeds. I'm thinking this should qualify for some passes or preferential treatment from Porsche AG, UK or the dealer? Just a couple of pit passes might be nice. Anything really.It may be that next year we may se some paid for hospitatility?

If he already has the 991 Turbo, well ahead of the car being released by Porsche, I'd say he gets enough preferential treatment already. Magic919 said:

They change the goddamn model numbers every year and to me they all look the same anyway. Don't like Porsche's personally, just trying to find an angle to make my annual Le Mans trip a bit different! Not meaning to offend Porsche owners BTW.It's likely to be a 997 Turbo S as they were making those last year when I visited the factory.
It would be great if you could get some freebies, but there are UK customers that have spent more by far and are a good ad for the brand (some of whom post on PH).
Maybe Porsche UK will chuck a few tickets or passes out to the dealers. I'd be surprised if some of the GT3RS owners, particularly the 4.0 ones didn't get considered. Wouldn't hold my breath though.

He should get mailings from porsche UK HQ at Reading. They organise accommodation and various packages every year but its expensive and not based at the track. You get bussed in if I recall.
I have had two new 911s in the last two years but have never taken the offer up. We always organise the trip ourselves and camp in the true spirit of Le Mans.
PCGB used to do a package but that has stopped within the last few years.
