Arena45

Arena 45 is an international outdoor karting centre in La Roche-de-Glun, about twelve minutes from Valence in France's Drôme department. Its 1108 m FFSA-homologated, floodlit track blends long straights, fast bends and tight hairpins. You can drive 4-stroke karts from age 7 for beginners and leisure (270 cc for adults), a dual-seater from age 4 with an adult driver, and 125 cc 2-stroke karts for drivers aged 16 and over. Protective gear is provided and booking is done online through the real-time track schedule.

A 10-minute session starts at around €18 for an adult and €16 for a child in a 4-stroke kart (€55 in a 2-stroke), with discounts for multiple sessions. The venue welcomes both individuals and groups — birthdays, stag and hen parties, team building and turnkey corporate seminars — with solo sprint or team endurance formats from 30 minutes to 6 hours, works-council (CSE) ticketing and an event room of about 130 m². Arena 45 also houses a karting school led by racing driver Didier André and a competition team.
