- Spectator experience further enhanced for CrowdStrike 24 Hours of Spa on 25–29 June
- 43 food outlets and 32 bars located around the circuit
- More grandstands, more giant screens, and more restrooms
With 99,500 spectators attending Spa-Francorchamps for the 2024 edition, the CrowdStrike 24 Hours of Spa confirmed its status among Belgium’s major public events. Fans are naturally drawn to the race – the most prestigious in the world for GT cars – as well as the many entertainment options, the extremely friendly atmosphere, and the warm welcome.
The on-site catering is an especially important aspect of the event and will be further improved for the 2025 edition. It could even be said that that, between 25 and 29 June, Spa-Francorchamps will be the biggest restaurant in all of Belgium.
"In partnership with the catering managers, we have set up no fewer than 43 food outlets," explains Laurent Gaudin, General Manager of the CrowdStrike 24 Hours of Spa. "We also have 32 bars located around the circuit. Our Panoramic Bar, on the roof of the grandstands at the bottom of the Endurance Pit Lane, was a huge success in 2024. Offering a unique view of Raidillon, the Fan Village and the concert stage, it will be open once again this year. As a reminder, this bar is by no means reserved for VIPs: on the contrary, it is for anyone with a ticket that includes paddock access."
There will be even more superb viewpoints around the 7km Ardennes circuit this year. At no extra charge, no fewer than 11 grandstands will be accessible with your general admission ticket, including a new addition at the foot of Raidillon which is sure to delight fans of the most famous corner in world motorsport.
Witnessing this event on-site is an experience like no other. The sound of the engines, the sense of speed, the general atmosphere with the party and the entertainment: these are sensations that television can only partially convey. Worried about not being able to follow the race properly if you're not in front of your TV? That won’t be an issue: with 15 giant screens broadcasting the entire 24 Hours, you won't miss a thing.
In this regard, the official programme will be your ideal companion. Over its 100 pages, you'll find a complete guide to the teams and drivers, a presentation of all 10 competing manufacturers, explanations of the intricacies of the regulations, as well as all the site maps, entertainment info and must-see recommendations, exclusive interviews, a presentation of the support races, and more. The programme will be available for 12€.
Finally, in collaboration with SRO Motorsports Group, Comtoyou Racing is offering fans a VIP experience on Friday 27 June with the Tripick Warm-Up Night. Staged at the prestigious Villa de l’Eau Rouge (at the foot of Raidillon), spectators will have access to the hospitality space of the team that won the centenary CrowdStrike 24 Hours of Spa. For a special price, they can enjoy the entertainment, a performance by DJ Alex Germys, an open bar, simulators, and more.

"We are aware that welcoming spectators is a key aspect of this event," continues Laurent Gaudin. "Satisfying our fans is a priority! As part of our overall offering, we have therefore planned a very special welcome for children, with an expanded Kids Zone accessible free of charge. We have also improved the structure of the campsites, with a larger selection than before, and have added additional restroom facilities across the site. As in 2024, we're once again planning small trains to transport spectators between the parking lots, the paddock, and the kart track. And, as previously announced, we've further enhanced the entertainment programme to ensure the fan experience is unforgettable."
