Monza F1 Tickets 2026
Where to sit at the Autodromo Nazionale, how to reach the circuit from Milan, and what each grandstand sees.
Where to sit at Monza
Monza is a simple, flat-out layout — long straights joined by a handful of corner complexes — so where you sit changes what you watch. A few pointers before you choose your Italian Grand Prix tickets:
Main start/finish straight — the heart of it
Grandstands along the main straight put you over the race start, the pit lane and pit stops, and the podium ceremony. It's the focal point of the post-race track invasion too, so on Sunday this is where you want to be. If your priority is the start and the celebrations, book here.
Parabolica (Curva Alboreto) and the chicanes — for overtaking
The Parabolica — the long final corner, officially renamed Curva Alboreto in 2021 after Michele Alboreto — is prized for braking and overtaking battles as cars dive in before launching back onto the main straight. The Ascari and Roggia chicanes are the other classic spots for close, wheel-to-wheel racing. Pick these stands if you came for the on-track fights rather than the podium.
General admission prato — roam the park
The prato (lawn) tickets are the most affordable and flexible way in. Instead of a fixed numbered seat you can roam large grassy areas of the Royal Park around the circuit, moving between viewing spots through the day. There's no guaranteed seat or covered, elevated view, but plenty of people prefer the freedom — and the price.
Getting there from Milan
Monza is easy to reach. Frequent regional trains run from central Milan — Milano Porta Garibaldi, with connections from Milano Centrale — out towards the circuit in around 20–25 minutes, and extra direct services run on race day to a station near the track. From there a short walk or a shuttle takes you through the Royal Park to the gates. Worth basing yourself in Milan and travelling out each morning.
One thing to look out for on the way in: the old high-banked oval, the Sopraelevata, still stands in the park. It's no longer raced on, but you can see the disused banking inside the circuit grounds — a reminder that Monza, opened in 1922, is one of the oldest purpose-built racing circuits in the world.
