Parking Blanc

[RobboC]

Has anyone got a spare space for Parking Blanc?

We have hotel rooms, and possibly pit lane access but no parking!

Available to buy online direct from the ACO. Go to lemans.org for online ticketing.

If there are any available now, also you have to be a member of the ACO

You don't need to be a member of the ACO to get a ticket for Parking Blanc. I know because I am not; yet received my confirmation of tickets for Parking Blanc yesterday from the ACO ticket office.
What you do have to do is apply early,this is first time in years of applying that I have managed to get a ticket, usually getting allocated Parking Blue which, in fairness is not too bad a substitute.

As flatout said, there's no need to be an ACO member. The ACO online ticket shop still has spaces available for all car parks and a good selection of grandstands. Only those seeking non-Porsche Curves area camping passes will be disappointed. The ACO do charge a hefty wack to have the tickets sent to the UK, but you can get around that by opting to pick them up on arrival. Apart from the lack of premium campsite availability, it's a no brainer, the savings you make are considerable.

Really? Have you got a link to ACO parking online?

We've always got in Blanc in the past, but friend did it via email etc

It is very simple. Just send an e mail to [e-mail] requesting a booking form. They send it to you as an attachment. You fill it in and either fax or scan it back to them. They then allocate the ticket and send you a letter confirming this. You then have to send payment if you want to take up the allocation. Hope this helps.

I can tell you that you'd be able to buy tickets for Bleu at the gate, and that it is opposite Blanc.

Or you could order the tickets on the ACO website

Quite amazed that they are selling Parking Blanc on the website, missed that one! Well done for pointing that out, I had missed it entirely.
I would question whether you can get Parking Blue on the gate. I had last year, as in previous years, pre booked, because of previous difficulties in getting in. People were being turned away whilst we were waved through, but I didn't stop to enquire why.

Maybe it's changed, but for 18 years i bought at the gate. I always got there mid-week though.
