Some news that will be a welcome relief to many locals and visitors this weekend.
Rail services along the French Riviera will be significantly reinforced for the Monaco Formula 1 Grand Prix from June 5 to 7, as SNCF Voyageurs and Sud Azur prepare for the thousands of spectators expected to travel to the Principality.
Most TER trains serving Monaco will operate with extended capacity, while the already frequent 15-minute service schedule will remain in place throughout the weekend.
To help fans return home after the festivities, train operations will be extended late into the night. On Friday and Saturday, the final departures from Monaco toward Nice and Menton will run between 1:00 a.m. and 2:00 a.m.
Sunday services will also be extended, though the last trains will leave slightly earlier.
Passengers can also take advantage of special Grand Prix travel passes. A €10 F1 Grand Prix Pass provides unlimited travel between Nice and Monaco for one day, while a €20 daily pass covers the entire Alpes-Maritimes network.
For those travelling more widely across the Riviera, a €30 daily Côte d’Azur Pass offers unlimited travel throughout both the Var and Alpes-Maritimes departments during the event.
