Hundreds of classic racers will provide a superb on-track spectacle as one of the showpiece events in the UK’s historic motorsport calendar returns. The festival, restored to a full three days for 2025, will see historic racers from multiple Motor Racing Legends (MRL) categories pushed to their limits on track, with some examples boasting over a century of competition history.

Several eras of Donington Park’s history will be celebrated, with pre-war machinery from the Grand Prix days of the 1930s to nostalgic examples of touring cars from yesteryear all taking to the circuit. The calibre of drivers matches that of the cars too, with past and present-day BTCC and Le Mans drivers often seen on the entry lists.

A standout highlight will be the debut of the all-new GT3 Legends series, for GT3 cars homologated between 2006 and 2012 up to 2015 specification.

The packed race schedule is complemented by track displays and parades, an open-access paddock, pitlane walks, a busy trade village, plus the presence of hundreds of pristine classic cars in displays staged by dozens of car clubs. Applications for those displays will be opening soon.

Earlybird ticket prices are just £25 for one-day adult entry on Saturday or Sunday, with discounts for teens aged 13-15. Children under-13 go for free. For further information and to secure earlybird tickets, click here.
