    Exclusive VIP Terrace Experience

    Attending the Monaco E-Prix from a VIP hospitality terrace turns a race weekend into an exclusive lifestyle event. Terraces such as the famed Ermanno Palace suites or premium harbour-view decks offer panoramic views of the circuit and the marina.

    For example, the Ermanno Palace 7th-floor suite provides breathtaking views of the start/finish straight, the thrilling first corner, and the majestic Beau Rivage Hill – essentially the entire opening lap of the race. Likewise, other VIP boxes overlook the harbor and the famous Casino Square, letting guests see the cars exit the tunnel and come around the tight hairpin turn.

    From these elevated vantage points, you’ll feel above the crowds and right on top of the action. Each VIP terrace is typically a covered, air-conditioned suite with private seating so you can relax – or network with fellow executives – in comfort while watching live racing on multiple big-screen monitors. Most terraces accommodate only 30–60 guests, ensuring an intimate, high-end atmosphere.

    Guests on a VIP terrace enjoy premium catering and open bar service throughout the day. Expect a gourmet breakfast and lavish buffet lunch – often prepared by celebrated chefs – along with champagne, fine wines, premium spirits, beers and soft drinks available on demand.

    Private waitstaff, VIP passes and reserved seating mean no lines or crowds – and exclusive amenities like souvenir lanyards and branded gifts are common. A dedicated hospitality desk ensures you have everything you need from track open to close. In short, terrace ticket holders experience a truly premium race-day, blending high-octane sport with the luxury dining and service expected in Monte Carlo.

    Key Benefits of a VIP Terrace at the Monaco E-Prix

    • Unobstructed, panoramic views of the circuit: over the harbor, first corner (Sainte Devote), and the famous turns at Casino Square and the Swimming Pool.
    • Gourmet catering: multi-course menus, hot and cold buffets, champagne and fine wines.
    • Premium open bar: top-shelf spirits, beers, and unlimited soft drinks.
    • Comfort and convenience: shaded seating, live TV screens, private restrooms, and dedicated service staff.
    • Exclusive atmosphere: mingle with fellow VIPs and racing enthusiasts, far from the general admission crowds.
    • Complimentary perks: VIP lanyards, programs, parking or transfers (varies by package).

    Because each terrace is limited in capacity (often fewer than 50 guests per venue), packages sell out quickly. Attendees gain full VIP hospitality and a unique story to tell: the best views of Monaco combined with gourmet catering and superb beverage selections. These terraces make the Monaco E-Prix as much a luxury experience as a sporting event.

    Monaco E-Prix History

    The Monaco E-Prix has a short but storied history. First held in May 2015, it has been contested in odd years (skipping 2016 and 2018) and has used evolving layouts. Early editions (2015–2019) ran on a shortened version of the Monaco circuit, while since 2021 the full Grand Prix layout has been used.

    Legacy and Significance

    Since then, winners such as Vandoorne (2022), Cassidy (2023), and Evans (2024) have continued the legacy of high-stakes, wheel-to-wheel battles in the heart of Monte Carlo.

    Sébastien Buemi remains the most successful driver in Monaco E-Prix history with three victories, while top teams like Techeetah, Mercedes, Envision, and Jaguar have all found glory on Monaco’s tight urban track.

    With Formula E pushing into its third generation of electric cars, the upcoming 2026 edition promises to write a thrilling new chapter.
