OWNERS of buildings with views over Valencia’s Formula 1 track are offering their balconies up for rent during the race.
Residents are charging up to 20,000 euros for the three days the race lasts (August 22, 23 and 24).
This top price is charged by the owner of a balcony on a ninth-floor apartment on the prolongation of the Paseo de la Alameda, with space for up to 15 people and including ‘catering’.
On the same street, a third-floor balcony is on offer for 15,000 euros to watch the training sessions and the race.
In some cases, private companies have acquired various balconies to let, offering up to 12 terraces with space for up to 442 spectators.
The same firm also offers the opportunity to witness the event onboard boats moored in the Marina Sur and at Valencia port, from 2,200 euros plus IVA.
The company in charge of organising the race, Valmos Sports, is renting out most of the mooring points with views of the track, with prices ranging from more than 2,800 to nearly 9,100 euros.
More than 146 of the 584 moorings managed by Valmos Sports have already been booked, mostly by boat owners travelling from outside the city.
Property owners elsewhere in Valencia and surrounding areas are also grasping the opportunity to bump up the price of their lets to cash in on the predicted scarcity of hotel rooms during the event.
Flats in the Grao area are already being offered for 15,000 euros for the month of August, alleging the proximity of the F1 circuit.
