24 Hours of Le Mans 2025 A historic grid calls for an outstanding schedule of events

The 93rd 24 Hours of Le Mans starts at 16:00 on 14 June. This year’s competitors have already been announced and now is the time to reveal the schedule of events for race week.

NEW FOR 2025


SATURDAY 7 JUNE: STARS OF THE TRACK ON THE STREETS OF LE MANS

For the third time in the history of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, 30 cars, 19 in this year’s line-up, will parade along a 2.1-kilometre loop in the city centre. Last year, thousands of admirers lined the route, bringing the trackside atmosphere into town. This year we’re doubling the fun: the parade will complete two loops, starting from Place du Jet d’Eau, the fountain at the foot of the cathedral.
Safety will be assured by 70 marshals stationed along the route. See you on Saturday 7 June at the closure of the scrutineering session, when the stars of the track take to the streets of Le Mans.
