ACO Enhances Spectator Experience for 2025 Le Mans 24 Hours
The Automobile Club de l’Ouest (ACO) has announced significant upgrades to the spectator experience for the 2025 Le Mans 24 Hours, set to run from June 10 to June 15. This initiative will introduce two new fan zones, increasing the total to five at the Circuit de La Sarthe.
The Karting Fan Zone will feature a “Racing Avenue paddock,” simulators, retro gaming, and the 24H Inside set, complemented by a viewing area for the Porsche Curves and Karting corner. The second new zone, located at Tertre Rouge, will include a rock-climbing wall, laser game, rope course, and a dance floor, all while providing direct views of the track between the Dunlop bridge and Forest Esses.
Returning this year are the three existing fan areas situated at the Concert area, East Gate, and the Family Fan Zone, which is adjacent to the Manufacturer Village. Each fan zone will be equipped with large TV screens, snack bars, and restroom facilities.
In addition to the fan zones, the Manufacturer Village will showcase brands such as Alpine, BMW M, Ford, Genesis, McLaren, Mercedes-AMG, Porsche, Toyota Gazoo Racing, and Iron Dames. The ACO H2 Hydrogen Village will highlight projects from Symbio, McLaren Applied, Multimatic, Bosch, Isoclima, Sobek, Momo, and Brightloop. Notably, a 700-bar mobile H2 filling station from TotalEnergies will be available for refueling demonstrations on Wednesday and Friday, underlining the event’s commitment to hydrogen technology.
These enhancements aim to create an engaging and immersive environment for fans, elevating the historic race’s reputation as a premier motorsport event.
