About This Event
Goodwood Revival is a historic race meeting held as if it were still 1948 to 1966, with cars and motorcycles from that era racing on the circuit's original layout and many visitors in 1940s, 50s and 60s clothes. Historic aircraft fly over the track, and the funfair, shops and music stages Over the Road keep the period theme going.
1What to Expect
Three days, Friday 17 to Sunday 19 September 2027. Car parks open at 07:00, gates open at 08:30 for the public and 07:30 for GRRC Members and Fellows, and cars are on track from 08:45 each day. The main site closes around 19:00, while bars and areas Over the Road stay open to 22:00 on Friday and Saturday and 21:00 on Sunday.
The racing covers Grand Prix cars, sports racers, touring cars and motorcycles from the 1948 to 1966 era, and Goodwood says a Revival weekend has more overtakes than a whole Formula 1 season. The 2027 race list is not yet published.
Historic aircraft fly over the circuit, and the Freddie March Spirit of Aviation display has aircraft on the ground.

Over the Road has live music stages, a vintage funfair, the drive in Revival Cinema and food and drink, and the High Street and shopping lanes sell vintage clothes and gifts.
The Revival Style Village runs vintage fashion talks and workshops, and the Best Dressed Competition picks its entrants from the crowd.
Sunday ends with the closing party: a Sunday admission ticket gets you onto the grid with the drivers and riders, followed by dancing and prize giving.

5Frequently Asked Questions
?Do I have to dress up?
No. Many visitors wear 1940s, 50s or 60s clothes, from a scarf or hat to a full period outfit, but there is no pressure. Controversial uniforms and costumes that take from another culture are not allowed, and Goodwood can refuse entry over them.
?Suitable for kids?
Children aged 12 and under get in free with a free child admission ticket ordered in advance, and wear a wristband with a contact number. Young Person tickets for ages 13 to 21 years are half price, and under 18s must be with a ticket holding adult. The vintage funfair is Over the Road.
?Bringing the dog?
No dogs or pets are allowed in the event, and they cannot be left in cars or the campsite. Guide dogs and registered assistance dogs come in with their certification and a harness.
?Using a wheelchair?
Five raised viewing platforms, four of them covered, are south of the Gordon Pavilion, at the Infield Chicane, Madgwick Corner and the Lavant Straight, plus an uncovered one at the Startline. They cannot be booked, and each guest can bring one companion onto the platform. Blue Badge parking is in Car Park D with entry through Gate 12, with courtesy shuttles in every car park and wheelchairs to book through Shopmobility on 0300 500 8085.
