Tickets are now on sale for the 2026 Italian Grand Prix, almost one year in advance. As demand has soared to attend F1 races in recent years, new grandstands have been added at Monza and ticket prices have been on the rise. Organizational issues on race weekend have been largely rectified at recent editions of the iconic race race, with 3-day attendance at this year’s race topping a record 370,000 fans. Tickets are more in demand at Monza than they have ever been (especially since Lewis Hamilton moved to Ferrar), so we recommend securing your seats as soon as possible.
When it comes to choosing where to sit at Monza, there’s a lot of grandstands to choose from, but they are clustered around just a handful of the circuit’s major corners, including the opening Prima Variante chicane, Seconda Variante, Variante Ascari and the Parabolica, as well as the Main Straight. Choosing which part of the track you’d like to experience will make it easier to decide on a particular grandstand. As always, you get what you pay for; higher priced seats normally have better views than lower priced seats.
For the best overtaking and action at Monza, it’s hard to go past the grandstands on the inside and outside of the opening corners at Prima Variante. Variante Ascari and Parabolica are also good places to watch the on-track action. If you don’t want to miss the race start and podium ceremony, choose seats on the Main Straight. All of these areas of the track are also easy to access via public transport and close to the main fan zone, which is located on the outside of the track between Parabolica and Ascari. Keep reading for a full analysis of all the viewing areas and grandstands at Autodromo Monza.

Monza Pit Straight Grandstands (1-5, 24, 25, 26A-26C, 27-30)
Multiple grandstands are located on the start/finish straight (Rettifilo Tribune) at Monza, ranging in price from the most expensive covered Centrale (1) stand down to the affordable and great value bleachers. As always with a seat on the pit straight, you will get a great view of the start/finish but little chance of seeing any proper on-track action. For fans on a budget, we recommend the Gradinate bleacher seats on the Main Straight.
Seats in the large covered Centrale Grandstand (1) – see video above – are the most expensive at Monza, and are overpriced compared to similar tickets at other Grands Prix. Located on the main straight either side of the Central covered stand are the Left Lateral/Lat Sinistra (4) and Right Laterals/Lat Destra (26A, 26B, 26C). The pricing gives you a good idea of which stands have the best views – the Left Lateral is positioned after the start line, whilst the most expensive Right Lateral grandstand is located closest to the start line. The cheaper Right Laterals are further down the straight towards the exit of the final Curva Parabolica corner. If you want the best view of the after-race podium celebrations, the cheapest Right Lateral grandstand (26C) is the one to choose. All these stands are covered.
Also on the main straight is Piscina (5) a cheap standalone grandstand closer to the first corner and near the pitlane exit which we don’t recommend . At the other end of the straight, closer to the Parabolica exit is the covered Vedano (24) which is a better choice, but a little more expensive.
Prima Variante Grandstands (6A, 6B, 6C, 8A, 8B)
Five grandstands are positioned on the opening Prima Variante chicane (also known as Variante del Rettifilo) at Monza. There are three grandstands on the inside of the circuit (Alta Velocita A, B & C) and two grandstands on the outside of the circuit (Esterna Prima Variante A & B). These grandstands offer some of the best viewing at Monza and remain popular, hence the premium prices.
The pick of the Alta Velocita stands on the inside of the circuit is Alta Velocita C (6C) – see video above. As an added bonus, the stand is also located directly behind a section of the old banked Monza circuit. The cheaper Alta Velocita B (6B) and Alta Velocita A (6A) are further from the corner, but still offer decent views. On the outside of the circuit, there is one large grandstand divided into two sections: seats in the more expensive Esterna Prima Variante A – Outer First Variant A (8A) are a little closer to the action than in Esterna Prima Variante B – Outer First Variant B (8B).
Seconda Variante Grandstands (9,10)
Also known as Variante della Roggia. There are two grandstands on the inside of the circuit at Seconda Variante, the third corner at Monza. You will see the cars emerge from the high-speed Curva Grande before braking for the chicane, where good overtaking opportunities exist. Seconda Variante (9) is a better choice than Roggia (10). It’s worth noting that these grandstands are somewhat remote from the rest of the action at Monza. It will take you at least 30 minutes on foot to reach these grandstands from most entrance gates, and the main fan zone is also some distance away.
Variante Ascari Grandstands (12-16, 18-20)
Eight grandstands are located on the inside of the circuit near Variante Ascari, the high-speed eighth corner at Monza where there are good overtaking opportunities. The best views can be found in the middle of the corner in the Ascari Uno/One (15) grandstand. Ascari Tre/Three (12) – see video above – is on the entry and is close to the track, whilst Ascari Due/Two (13) is set back behind the gravel trap in the middle of the corner and Ascari (16) is located on the exit. The Outer Ascari stands (A,B,C) are located on the straight between Variante Ascari and Curva Parabolica: Uscita Ascari B (19) & Uscita Ascari C (20) are small covered grandstand but there are better views for this price.
Curva Parabolica Grandstands (21A-21C, 22, 23A-23B)
Five temporary and one permanent (covered) grandstand are located on the outside of the circuit on the approach to the final Curva Parabolica at Monza, one of the most famous turns on the current Formula 1 calendar. Tickets in the permanent covered Parabolica (22) – see video above – stand closest to the corner. The Lateral Parabolic grandstands are priced according to how close to the corner they are: Laterale Parabolica A (21A) is closest to the corner and is a better choice than Laterale Parabolica B (21B) for the same price. In the lower price bracket, Laterale Parabolic C (21C) is a better choice than Laterale Parabolica D (21D) or Laterale Parabolica E (21E). An additional two grandstands are located on the inside of the circuit at the exit of the Parabolica, near the pitlane entrance. There is not much to separate these stands, so the cheaper Parabolica Interna A (23A) is a better choice than Parabolica Interna B (23B).
Monza General Admission (Prato)
The General Admission offer at Monza is still excellent value for money (3-day tickets cost around €100), but it’s hard to recommend now due to recent circuit changes. Overcrowding issues have been experienced in General Admission in the last few years (especially in 2022) and the addition of new grandstands has reduced the number of viewing areas available. Certain parts of the circuit, such as the inside of Parabolica, are now off-limits to General Admission pass holders
Provided you are happy to cover a lot of ground on foot over the weekend, it’s possible to get some good views of the on-track action at Monza, and the park setting is beautiful. But you will need to get there first, as the best areas – near Lesmo for example – with small free grandstands for General Admission, fill up very quickly. As always, it’s easier to get a good view earlier in the weekend before the tifosi arrive in greater numbers for qualifying and the race itself.
Race Club, Fans Club & Garden Lounge Hospitality
Choose from 1-, 2- or 3-day packages for the Race Club, Fans Club and Garden Lounge hospitality suites at Autodromo Monza. The best (and most expensive) are the Race Club packages, which offer hospitality and grandstand seating in a modern building situated next to the pit exit on the inside of the track at Monza. Fans Club offers hospitality on the ground floor of the same building, but with a separate seat in the Ascari grandstand (about 10 minutes walk away). The most affordable hospitality is in the Garden Lounge, a temporary structure with outdoor garden on the inside of main straight on the way to the first corner, which also includes a reserved grandstand seat in the Ascari grandstand. Trackside hospitality is not yet on sale for the 2026 Italian Grand Prix. Click here to download the 2025 Italian Grand Prix hospitality brochure
Schumacher Lounge Hospitality
Introduced at the 2025 Italian Grand Prix, the Schumacher Lounge is a hospitality suite on the main straight at Monza that celebrates the career of the legendary Michael Schumacher, who won five consecutive drivers’ titles with Ferrari from 2000-2004 and won the Italian Grand Prix at Monza five times. As well as getting access to a hospitality suite with terrace, guests in the Schumacher Lounge will each be entitled to a reserved 3-day seat in the Piscina grandstand, as well as appearances by F1 legends. Schumacher Lounge hospitality is not yet on sale for the 2026 Italian Grand Prix
