The expected average temperature is 14°C throughout April, with pleasant average highs of 16°C and lows of 12°C. However, it can often feel warmer when in the sunshine!

Is there a dress code?
The Monaco Historic Grand Prix is generally a very sophisticated event. We want all our guests to feel comfortable, so please consider the following suggestions for specific locations:

Please consider forecasted weather conditions and be prepared with appropriate clothing and sun protection. This is particularly true for the grandstands where shelter is limited.

What about footwear?
Monaco is known for its hills, and with the track closing regular routes, a good amount of walking may be required. You may also need to stand for extended periods at viewing locations, so please choose your footwear accordingly.

Will I need earplugs?
Foam earplugs will be supplied at all our venues. If you are attending with young children, we strongly recommend bringing ear defenders for them.

Is there food available at the Grandstands?

Yes there are food and drink vendors positioned near the grandstands so you can buy sandwiches, hot dogs, drinks etc. Glass bottles and cans are not allowed inside the grandstand areas.
