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.
