Goodwood Revival | Press Article 17/04/24

Goodwood has partnered with international mobility service provider SIXT as the official mobility partner of the Goodwood Revival.

SIXT will provide Goodwood Revival, which this year runs from 8 -10 September, with a diverse fleet of premium cars to help with the smooth running of the event. Vehicles will include a wide range of multi-seaters and vans, 4x4s and premium cars providing a full mobility offering.

Jonathan Gregory, Commercial Director for Goodwood, said: “We are delighted to welcome SIXT onboard as a Goodwood Revival partner this year. Their impressive fleet of vehicles will play an important operational role in the successful running of Revival over the three days.”

Andrew Smith, Managing Director of SIXT UK, said: "As an official partner, we are proud to be supporting this iconic landmark occasion in the British events calendar. We share Goodwood’s passion for remarkable cars and are looking forward to providing a wide range of the latest fleet available.”

Goodwood Revival is an immersive vintage experience set in period theme. Each year the event recreates the glamour and excitement that suffused the glory days of motor racing at Goodwood from 1948 to 1966, revisiting a time when everything was made to last and people would ‘make do and mend’ cherished belongings for a lifetime of use.

This year’s Goodwood Revival marks its 25th anniversary and promises to be an exciting three days with 150,000 visitors expected.  The event will celebrate the life and achievements of racing icon Carroll Shelby, who would have been 100 in January. The legendary American driver, car manufacturer and entrepreneur will be honoured with one of Goodwood’s signature tributes, comprising cars that were not only raced, but also designed and developed by the 1959 Le Mans winner. The Revival will also celebrate Lotus’ 75th anniversary and welcome a fleet of up to 75 cars from the iconic car manufacturers’ heritage, including a special on-track celebration.

The popular Revive and Thrive Village is set to return with a number of new headline appearances including renowned restorer, TV presenter and author Dominic Chinea, TV presenter and sustainable interior designer Micaela Sharp and author and founder of The Bargello Edit Nerrisa Pratt. 

The Revive and Thrive Village will embrace the strikingly relevant ethos from which it takes its name with heritage skill-focused demonstrations and pop-ups, and by amplifying the voices of those with a passion for sustainable heritage crafts. Within this creative hub, a schedule of live workshops and demonstrations with a line-up of experts from around the UK will champion the revival of beautiful old possessions.

About the Goodwood Revival
Goodwood Revival is an immersive celebration of vintage lifestyle, championing exceptional craftsmanship and the enduringly fabulous stories told by second-hand treasures. ‘Revive & Thrive’ is the thoroughly modern message woven through the Revival landscape; a clever stitch with which the old is made new again, it runs through every carefully restored classic car, each beautifully preserved piece of clothing as it is passed from one generation to the next.

It is, proudly, the world’s biggest and most glamorous second-hand event.
