Zandvoort wants beach visitors to come after noon during Grand Prix to avoid peak times

NL Times  

Visitors who will not attend the Dutch Grand Prix in Zandvoort are requested to postpone their visit to the seaside town until after 12 p.m. during the race weekend. With a capacity to accommodate 105,000 visitors at the circuit, the exact total of visitors the municipality anticipates for the weekend remains uncertain, a spokesperson said. The event will notably take place during the summer vacation period this year, potentially drawing additional day visitors. Traditional routes remain accessible to visitors, including the boulevard that passes various stalls and stages within the village.
