About This Event

The Retro Rides Weekender fills Goodwood Motor Circuit with pre 2000 custom cars, race cars, show cars and hot rods for two days of display paddocks and track action. Anyone who arrives in a pre 2000 car parks in Retro Parking, in among the show itself, so the car park is half the event.

1What to Expect

The show runs from 9am on Saturday 8 May to 5pm on Sunday 9 May 2027 at Goodwood Motor Circuit.
The organiser's mix is custom cars, race cars, show cars, hot rods and everything in between, laid out in curated display paddocks.
Track action is part of the weekend, including the circuit safari bus.
Trade and retail stands and local food and catering run alongside the displays.

2Best Way to Experience It

  • Saturday and Sunday are sold as separate day tickets at the same adult price, £20 plus a £0.95 booking fee (2027), or as one weekend camping ticket that covers both days.
  • Arriving in any pre 2000 car puts you in Retro Parking, inside the show rather than in the visitor car park.
