Spa 24 Hours: Tickets and camping

[delta0]

I'm planning a trip to Spa next year to see the 24 hours racing. I've been before and I rented a house nearby. I'm thinking of camping this time. I'm fairly seasoned with this and have found decent sites when travelling to Le Mans. What do people recommend? Also, does anyone know when tickets for the race next year are available?

No need to buy tickets in advance (grandstands are un-reserved), for camping search for Eau Rouge, or if you've got a camper / small motorhome you can park by the side of the road for free.

Thanks. I've never needed grand stand access at Spa. I go for the pit access in the centre though that is worth it. I will check out camping at Eau rouge.

Paddock access tickets are more expensive than general entrance, they're both relatively cheap though, €30-40 vs €60-70 IIRC, I don't bother with the paddock ticket. Book in early spring if you decide to go for Eau Rouge, it's mostly a Dutch family campsite so gets fully booked in prime holiday season. It's about 1/2 hour walk from the site to the Stavelot entrance, or you can drive up for a parking fee, 5 euros I think.
