Guys,

I have a supercar mad 14 year old that I need to work out how I am going to keep entertained over the summer staycation. Can anyone please suggest any spectator events that would include supercars? I did try the PH events calendar, but does not seem to be working.

Thanks in advance,
Rog.

Supercar weekend (AKA dads day out) is on Saturday at Goodwood. Doesn't even have to be a spectator - if you pay ~£30 (money goes to charity) - he gets to be a passenger in a supercar around the track for a few laps : https://thesupercarevent.com/

Beaulieu Supercar weekend is 7th / 8th August

There is also Steelford Supercar event 15th August (think it's on the coast near Portsmouth).

Sorry they're all in the South - it's where I am, so it's the ones I'm doing.

If you're in the North of England there's the Leeds Supercars & Coffee meet (postponed from 2020) which is on at Lamborghini/McLaren Leeds on Sunday 1st August, should be a good selection of interesting cars there on the day and it's all to raise money for the Leeds Mind charity. Free admission to the public with parking at the nearby Skelton Lake services and a free shuttle bus to the event !!

Might be a little late as its in September but Petrol hedonism at Knebworth should be a good one - https://www.knebworthhouse.com/events/petrolheadon...

Another shout for this, cracking day out, last years highlight was a scruffy stone chipped well used F40 just parked by the circuit shops, all the italian car and bike clubs attend and the racing is good too.

Now that looks interesting. Is that a Club event, wondering how to display a car.

It used to be free to owners via local franchise dealer - probably worth a call to them and/or FNE Slough
