Silverstone Festival

As ever the record-breaking displays of privately-owned classic cars and unrivalled line-up of retro races from all of motor racing’s golden eras will be right at the heart of The Classic event, with feverish qualifying sessions followed by a programme of spectacular showdowns across three packed days.
Featuring the cream of Europe’s finest historic racing grids, the races will be set on the famous Silverstone Grand Prix circuit, which will also continue to witness massive parades honouring key marque and model milestones.

As well as enhancing its global reputation as the epicentre of historic racing, in recent years The Classic has become a massive family attraction, providing entertainment for all generations to enjoy at the home of British motor racing.

While lovers of automotive nostalgia always revel in all the great competition and road cars from yesteryear, others immerse themselves in the off-track festivities – the vast majority included absolutely free in the price of admission.

Fun fair rides, crazy golf on the buzzing Village Green, dramatic stunt driving displays plus a massive shopping village are now very much part of the show at the Festival, as is the lure of live music from chart-topping bands which this year features Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Busted and Olly Murs
