Team Langoustine is acquiring 1st Tickets Limited
BY TEAM LANGOUSTINE
We are excited to announce that Team Langoustine is acquiring fellow ACO licensed ticket agent 1st Tickets Limited.
The deal will make Team Langoustine one of the largest, official 24 Hours of Le Mans and Le Mans Classic ticket agents and private campsite operators.
“The opportunity to acquire 1st Tickets made perfect sense to Team Langoustine as we shared the same goals of delivering the best overall value and premium yet authentic trackside camping experiences at the 24 Hours of Le Mans and Le Mans Classic for motorsport fans like ourselves.”
Mark Adams – Managing Director, Team Langoustine
“Having built 1st Tickets over the last 20 years into the well-known and respected company that it is today, I have taken the difficult decision to retire. Having watched Team Langoustine’s transformation since Mark took over its reins at the 2022 24 Hours of Le Mans, I have been impressed with its development. Therefore, it was a logical step to entrust Team Langoustine to continue 1st Tickets proud legacy and look after our loyal customers whilst attracting the next generation of endurance racing enthusiasts.”
Brian Sheehan – Founder and Managing Director, 1st Tickets
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR EXISTING CUSTOMERS?
For the Le Mans 24 Hours, Team Langoustine is to develop the 1st Tickets private campsite at Beauséjour to mirror that of our Premier private camping at Hunaudières with the same tasty food and welcoming bar.
We are also planning, subject to local council approvals, to provide a complementary coach shuttle service between the two sites, so that customers can experience the action at both Tertre Rouge and the Porsche Curves whilst enjoying a cold pint (other beverages available) from the Team Langoustine bar.
We’re continuing 1st Ticket’s long-standing relationship with PistonHeads, the Aston Martin Owners Club, Ford Motor Company and Radio Le Mans and will host the corporate bookings at Team Langoustine Beauséjour.
For the Le Mans Classic Heritage, as per the 2026 Classic Legend, all customers attending in 2027 will be hosted at Hunaudières.
We will be in contact with all 1st Tickets customers who have already made deposit payments for 2027 to facilitate a seamless handover, and will make further announcements here regarding our combined service offering as we finalise our plans for 2027.
OUR COMMITMENT
The enlarged Team Langoustine remains totally committed to delivering our winning formula of the best overall value and premium yet authentic trackside camping experiences at the 24 Hours of Le Mans and Le Mans Classic for motorsport fans like ourselves.
