The Italian Grand Prix is up there with the most popular races on the entire Formula 1 calendar. The Tifosi make for a truly unforgettable experience, no matter how their beloved Ferrari perform over the weekend.

We would recommend staying in the north of the city as this will provide the easiest access both to the Milan Malpensa Airport (main airport for international arrivals) and the Monza Circuit itself.

However, there is an option to stay even closer to the circuit…

Camping at Monza

Pitching tent for the weekend of a Formula 1 race is a bucket list activity – and some fans will do it every year. Check out our full guide to camping at the Italian Grand Prix below:
