Cars spanning more than a century of motorsport will be back for the battles on track, while around the venue, there’s one of the most varied line-ups of displays, demonstrations, retail stalls, and additional off-track activities all year.
A blockbuster schedule of competitive action
18 races from Motor Racing Legends will feature some of the oldest and newest cars in the historic racing scene. The evergreen ‘Mad Jack’ Pre-War Sports Cars will feature machinery from as far back as the 1920s, while the GT3 Legends series features epic sports cars homologated between 2006 and 2012.
In between, there’s single-seaters from the 1950s and 60s, spectacular sports cars from a similar era, and an eclectic range of touring cars spanning four decades, with hundreds of priceless racing cars expected.

Screaming F1 demonstrations and so much more!
To accompany the racing, hundreds more classic cars from a vast array of clubs and individuals will go on display around the venue, whilst screaming F1 demos will raise heartbeats, with a late 90s Minardi M198 and McLaren MP4/1 already confirmed. Plus, there’s a sensational line up of supercars and hypercars from Supercar Driver.
With every step around the venue and the fully open paddock areas, you’ll discover something new, reminisce on previous eras, or rediscover a precious relic you’d long forgotten.
Discounted tickets are available in advance online until 4pm on Wednesday 29 April, with reductions for 13-15 year olds and free entry for under-13s. For more information, click here.
