2027 planning, 2026 costs etc
Discussion
Hi.
I've done 5 trips to Le Mans, the last in 2009.
I think we did 2004, 2005, 2007, 2008 and 09.
2 years at Houx Annexe, One on Beausejour, one on a private hosted campsite, one can't remember had too much fun/beer.
Always been in a convoy of 4-6 cars and camping.
Never bought Granstand tickets, fine with this.
I'm planning a 2027 trip.
Costs appear to have risen !
Can anyone give an idea of what you spent in 2026 and what I am to expect next year?

This year was the first time I’d been since 2004, no idea of costs tbh.
However one thing was the mass change in campsites and the lack of decent maps in the lead up to going.
I came across this next to a 24hr info centre and it’s probably the most comprehensive and current layout information (campsites, paths, stands, viewing areas etc) you can get and should remain mainly valid for next year. It has a handy 100mx100m grid to it too.

Just on my way back from LM. 4 people with 3 cars camping with travel destinations at Porsche curves (great campsite, challenging booking process).
Camping, race and ferry tickets was about £8-900 each. No grandstand tickets. Breakfast included each day. I’d guess I spent another £300 ish on food and drink. Then fuel and tolls. Certainly not cheap anymore and a very different experience to the old Houx annexe days. For better and worse!

1st time this year for me to have a grandstand seat - LeonardT20 - right in front of the start line/podium. I would definitely recommend getting a grandstand seat if you can run to the cost. The build up to the start was so good and being in the shade from the unrelenting 29deg sun his year was worth the cost!!! Watching the finish and the team celebration from the grandstand was really special. We stayed at Lycian Porsche Curves (highly recommended) and would budget around £1800 all in for the Thursday to Monday (all costs including food and drink, crossing, accommodation, grandstand etc). It can be done for a lot less though.
