The only covered grandstand at Zandvoort, positioned on the outside of the start/finish straight opposite the pit buildings, with views of the main straight, pit exit, and the approach to Turn 1 (Tarzanbocht). Comfortable seats with backs, large TV screens, and a prime elevated vantage point for the race start grid and finish line.

Directly opposite the F1 team garages and pit boxes on the start/finish straight, providing the best unobstructed views of all pit stops, grid procedures, and pit lane strategy throughout the race. Completely uncovered and exposed to North Sea coastal weather, but the prime pit-watching location at Zandvoort with high rows offering panoramic sightlines over the entire pit operation.

Located at the pit-straight end of the Tarzan-In grandstand complex on the outside of Turn 1 (Tarzanbocht), offering views of the DRS straight approach and entry to the hairpin but with a less direct angle on the apex than Sections 1 and 2. Completely uncovered and exposed to coastal wind from the nearby North Sea dunes.

Positioned on the outside of Turn 1 (Tarzanbocht), the legendary 180-degree hairpin and primary overtaking spot of the Dutch GP, with clear views of cars braking hard off the DRS straight and through the full arc of the corner. Completely uncovered, placing spectators very close to the action at one of the most exciting braking zones on the F1 calendar.

The best-positioned section of the Tarzan-In complex, sitting closest to the apex of Turn 1 (Tarzanbocht) on the outside of the hairpin with an intimate, close-up view of late braking, side-by-side wheel-to-wheel racing, and the full exit acceleration onto the start/finish straight. Completely uncovered with deafening engine noise at close proximity; considered one of the premier grandstand experiences at Zandvoort.

Located on the inside of the Hugenholtzbocht (Turn 10) hairpin area, facing toward the short DRS straight and the exit of Turn 10 where cars accelerate hard before Turn 11. Completely uncovered with 26 rows; a budget-friendly option in the dune interior of the circuit, offering accessible action at a technical mid-circuit corner.

Sits back-to-back with Hairpin Grandstand 2 on the inside of the Turn 10 area, facing toward the straight after Turn 10 and entry to the DRS detection zone. Completely uncovered across 26 rows; the most affordable grandstand option at the circuit and well-suited for fans who want a relaxed mid-circuit vantage point with good atmosphere.

Positioned on the outside of the circuit on the eastern infield section between Turns 10 and 11, with views of cars exiting the Turn 10 hairpin area and accelerating toward the DRS detection point. Completely uncovered with 30 rows; a budget entry point on the east side of the circuit set among the coastal dunes.

One of the larger stands on the east side of the circuit, running along the outside of the track between Turns 10 and 11 with views of the DRS straight and mid-circuit racing. Completely uncovered across 30 rows and 175 seats wide; a mid-range option providing solid sightlines of cars at speed in the dune section of the lap.

Adjacent to Eastside 2A on the outside of the track's eastern section, with views of the mid-circuit straight between Turns 10 and 11 and the approach to the DRS zone. Completely uncovered across 27 rows and 135 seats wide; a compact mid-range option in the dune interior of the circuit.

The most premium of the Eastside sections, positioned on the outside of the circuit overlooking Turn 11 — the DRS activation point and best overtaking opportunity on the east side of the lap — with views of cars braking late and fighting for position. Completely uncovered with 33 rows; elevated higher rows offer a panoramic perspective across the dune landscape with occasional glimpses toward the North Sea.

Located at the southern end of the Eastside section between Turns 12 and 13, with views of cars navigating the technical mid-circuit sequence approaching the Arena section. Completely uncovered with 30 rows; the most affordable Eastside option, suited for fans who want to explore a quieter section of the circuit set in the natural dune terrain.

Positioned on the inside (right-hand side) of the circuit just before Turn 11, looking across the track at the DRS zone and Turn 11 braking point where some of the best overtaking at Zandvoort occurs. Completely uncovered and part of the legendary Arena section where grandstands face each other across the track, creating an electric stadium-like atmosphere with roaring engines echoing off both banks of seats.

On the inside of the circuit slightly further into the Arena section, with views of Turn 11 braking and the entry to Turn 12 as cars thread through the tight infield complex. Completely uncovered and contributing to the famous stadium feel of the Arena, with the large Eastside grandstands visible directly across the track and a TV screen on the opposite side tracking the wider race.

Positioned on the outside of the circuit between Turns 12 and 13, with views of the Turn 12 exit and Turn 13 entry at the tail end of the Arena section. Completely uncovered with 28 rows and 144 seats per row; the most affordable Arena section option with more limited sightlines than the Arena-In or Arena grandstands, but still part of the atmospheric dune-enclosed infield complex.

The flagship Arena section stand on the inside of the circuit, wrapping around Turn 11 with direct views of the DRS activation zone and the best overtaking opportunity in the Arena complex, as cars brake late and fight side-by-side through the corner. Completely uncovered with 34 rows; the stadium atmosphere created by grandstands facing each other across the narrow track is unique in Formula 1, with the iconic banked Turn 14 (Arie Luyendykbocht) visible in the background.

Part of the Arena Grandstand complex on the inside of the circuit, with views of Turn 12 and the technical sequence leading toward the iconic banked Turn 14 (Arie Luyendykbocht). Completely uncovered with 34 rows; shares the electric enclosed atmosphere of the Arena section where opposite grandstands amplify crowd noise across the narrow circuit gap.

The southern end of the Arena Grandstand on the inside of the circuit, overlooking Turn 13 and the approach to the banked Turn 14 (Arie Luyendykbocht) as cars build speed for the final corner. Completely uncovered with 34 rows; a mid-range option within the atmospheric Arena section, positioned to see cars entering the dramatic 18-degree banked final corner that leads back onto the main straight.

The lower 20 rows of the Ben Pon grandstand, positioned between the banked final corner (Turn 14, Arie Luyendykbocht) and the start/finish straight, looking directly at cars exiting the 18-degree banked corner at full speed and accelerating onto the main straight. Completely uncovered with a dedicated giant TV screen tracking Turn 14 action; one of the best locations to witness Zandvoort's dramatic banked final corner close-up.

The upper 20 rows (rows 21–40) of the Ben Pon grandstand — the highest elevation seats in this block — with panoramic views of Turn 14's steep 18-degree banking, the final corner exit, and the full run onto the main straight, plus elevated sightlines across the coastal dune landscape with potential views toward the North Sea. Completely uncovered with 338 seats per row; elevated positioning makes this one of the most scenic vantage points at the circuit.

F1's official premium hospitality facility located just metres above the team garages, offering unrivalled views down into the pit boxes and across the start/finish straight, combined with elevated sightlines toward Turn 1 (Tarzanbocht) and the banked corners. Fully covered air-conditioned suites include Michelin-quality dining, an open champagne bar, exclusive pit lane walk access, guided paddock tours, and team appearances — the most exclusive experience at the Dutch GP.
