Monaco Grand Prix Sets Attendance and Ticket Sales Records

 

The 82nd Monaco Grand Prix set a new benchmark for attendance, drawing an unprecedented 250,000 visitors to the Principality over four days. According to Monaco-Matin, tickets sold out more quickly than ever before — a trend that shows no sign of slowing, according to Automobile Club de Monaco President Michel Boeri.

In an interview with Monaco-Matin ahead of the race, Boeri emphasized the soaring demand: “Each year, sales are faster and stronger — and this year, we’re at full capacity.” That enthusiasm translated into the largest crowds the Grand Prix has ever seen.

From Thursday through Sunday, Monaco’s streets were transformed into a vibrant arena of noise, speed, and spectacle. Friday welcomed around 21,000 fans, while Saturday and Sunday each hit maximum capacity with 24,000 grandstand attendees.

This year's record-setting turnout reaffirmed the Monaco Grand Prix’s status as not just a crown jewel of the Formula 1 calendar, but also one of the Principality’s premier international attractions.

The figures, verified by Monaco-Matin, reflect the race’s growing popularity even amid increasing debates about the environmental impact of major sporting events. With every seat filled and the atmosphere electric, the Monaco Grand Prix once again proved why it remains a cornerstone of global motorsport and a magnet for fans worldwide.
