Zandvoort Circuit

Grandstand: PIT

As given away by the name, the Pit Grandstand offers you a pole position view of the pit lane. Watch as teams feverishly work on their cars to ready them for a run around this short but challenging circuit. The Pit Grandstand has one of the best views of the track, with the F1 fanzone and ample food, drink and merchandise options easily accessible from this grandstand.

Covered from the elements, the Pit Grandstand allows you to watch the pre-race build up and see the cars at their highest speed on the main straight, as well as being one of two DRS zones on the track. The Pit Grandstand will also give you a view of the post-race podium celebrations.

Grandstand: MAIN

The Main Grandstand is the biggest stand on the track, and as seen on television feeds also has an unrivalled atmosphere. This grandstand will give you a view of the main straight and sits further toward turn one than the Pit Grandstand. Here you will see the majority of overtakes being completed as the cars get a run out of the final banked corner into a DRS zone.

Also on the main grandstand you will have a view of the pit exit, watching as drivers exit the tight pitlane into the first corner of the track. You will feel incredibly close to the action here, and whether a Max Verstappen or not – you will find it impossible to not join in the orange party vibes.

Grandstand: TARZAN-IN

Short for “Tarzanbocht” (Tarzan Bend), the grandstand that sits at Turns 1 and 2 does not actually refer to how the cars swing through the corners and is a reference to the machine that made the asphalt. One of the beauties of this set of corners is that it has remained relatively unchanged throughout the life of the circuit.

History lessons aside – the Tarzan Grandstand is one of the most exciting spots on the short Zandvoort circuit. Here you will see the cars enter and exit turn 1 at the end of the main straight and DRS zone. This grandstand will provide you the best chance to see these impressive machines wheel-to-wheel at the best overtaking spot on the circuit.

Grandstand: HAIRPIN

Hairpin Grandstands 1 and 2 will give you a prime view of a tricky section of the track at Turn 10 as the cars look to perfect the entry and exit to the second DRS zone of the track. Surrounded by the iconic sandy banks of the Zandvoort circuit, the Hairpin Grandstands will similarly give you excellent photo opportunities of the cars at low speed

Grandstand: EASTSIDE 1-3

Sitting directly opposite the Arena-In Grandstands, Eastside gives you a similar view of the short straight in the second half of the lap with the added front-on view of the chicane at the exit. At the end of a DRS zone, overtakes are a chance especially with the current era of F1 cars and their ability to follow each other closer. As the cars come to a short braking zone, the Eastside Grandstands also give you great photo opportunities of the cars from a close vantage point.

The crowd’s energy bounces off the other between the Eastside and Arena-In Grandstands, with music being played throughout the weekend to keep the party going.

Grandstand: EASTSIDE 4

Just around from Grandstands 1-3 sits Eastside 4. This grandstand will give you a prime view as the cars flick through the tight chicane into the final banked corner of Zandvoort. Here you will see F1 cars up close at low speed, allowing for many great photo opportunities.

The Eastside and Arena Grandstands are all in close vicinity of each other, giving a real festival atmosphere all weekend long.

Grandstand: ARENA-IN

Sitting on the inside of the track, Arena-In Grandstand will give you a view of a fast section of track in the third and final sector. The atmosphere in Arena-In is spectacular, directly facing fellow fans in the Eastside Grandstand and having the music stage just to your right, where DJs and announcers will keep the party vibe going throughout the weekend.

On track, the first lap and safety car restarts are highlights in the Arena-In Grandstands, as you witness the cars in close proximity. At the end of the DRS straight, Arena-In views give you a chance to witness brave overtakes into the tight chicane at the end of the straight.

Conveniently located food and drink stalls sit just behind the grandstand, so you will not have too far to go between sessions for food.

Grandstand: ARENA

The Arena Grandstand sits in the most concentrated section of grandstands at Zandvoort and as such will give you the full experience of the Dutch crowd atmosphere. You will see the cars at their aerodynamic best, as the drivers navigate this tight and twisty final section of track. Much like the Arena-In and Eastside Grandstands, the Arena Grandstand’s atmosphere and view befits its name and you will undoubtedly enjoy tunes and the Dutch party throughout the weekend.

The Arena Grandstand is also conveniently located to the F1 fanzone and all amenities.

Grandstand: ARENA-OUT

Sitting between the tight Turns 12 and 13, Arena-Out is a popular grandstand sitting just next to the Arena Grandstands. Here you will see the cars as they flick through these two corners and try and get the best run onto the final banked corner of the track both for lap time and potential overtaking opportunities.

This is the closest grandstand to the F1 fanzone where you can try your hand at changing tyres on a Formula 1 car or test your speed on the many F1 simulators. The abundance of food and drink options close by will mean you are never without options in this space either.
