A superb collection of classic racers will deliver one of the showpiece events in the UK’s historic motorsport calendar. The festival will once again run for a full three days, with a packed schedule of historic racing orchestrated by Motor Racing Legends (MRL). MRL categories covering several decades of motor racing heritage will take to the track, with some examples boasting over a century of competition history.

Pre-war sports cars all the way up to fan-favourite GT3 Legends will be competing, complemented by an eclectic mix of classic touring cars, while the Generations Trophy makes its Donington Park debut, pitting family teams against each other in a fleet of race-spec MGBs.

The packed race schedule is accompanied by track displays and parades, special demonstrations, an open-access paddock, pitlane walks, a busy trade village, plus sprawling displays of hundreds of classic cars courtesy of dozens of car clubs. Applications for displays are now open - please click here to register.
