UK Events – What’s Happening in British Motorsport Right Now
If you love the roar of engines and the smell of burnt rubber, you’re in the right place. This page pulls together every major UK motorsport event you need to know about – from street races to championship rounds – plus handy tips on tickets and travel.
First up, the British Grand Prix at Silverstone is back for another thrilling weekend. Expect the usual mix of top‑tier F1 action, fan zones, and a lively after‑party. Early‑bird tickets sell out quickly, so grab yours as soon as they open. For families, the “Junior Grandstand” gives a close view without breaking the bank.
Key Dates and Venues You Can’t Miss
Silverstone – British Grand Prix: 15‑17 July 2025. Main race on Sunday, plus support races on Friday and Saturday. Recommended: Grandstand Seat 214 for a clear sightline of the start‑finish line.
Donington Park – British Superbike Championship: 22‑24 August 2025. The park’s hills make for exciting overtakes. Look for the “Pit Lane View” tickets if you want to see the bikes up close during pit stops.
Goodwood Festival of Speed: 23‑25 June 2025. Not a race, but a showcase of classic and modern cars. The Hill Climb is the headline event – arrive early to avoid the crowds.
Brands Hatch – British Touring Car Championship (BTCC): 5‑7 September 2025. The Indy circuit offers tight corners perfect for close racing. Seats on the “Grandstand East” give a perfect view of the final chicane.
How to Secure the Best Tickets and Save Money
Ticket prices vary wildly, but a few tricks can keep your budget in check. Sign up for the official event newsletters – they often send out promo codes a week before sales start. Also, check secondary markets like TicketSwap; you can snag a seat at a lower price if you act fast.
For weekend events, consider a “Friday‑Sunday” bundle. You’ll pay less per day and still get access to all three days of racing. If you’re traveling from outside the UK, look for package deals that include accommodation. Hotels near Silverstone and Brands Hatch often partner with promoters and offer shuttle services.
Don’t forget to plan your transport. Train routes to Silverstone run from London Euston to Milton Keynes, then a short bus ride. For Goodwood, the nearest station is Chichester, and a local taxi will get you to the track in about 15 minutes.
Finally, think about what you want from the experience. If you love the roar of engines, a front‑row seat in the Grandstand is worth the splurge. If you prefer a relaxed vibe, the “General Admission” areas let you roam, grab food, and still catch plenty of action.
