Oulton Park’s signature Historic Gold Cup returns for a glorious showcase of motorsport nostalgia, starring cars from the ‘50s, ’60s, ‘70s and ‘80s, for three days across the August Bank Holiday.
The event harks back to a golden period for the circuit, when internationally renowned superstars like Stirling Moss, Jim Clark, and Jackie Stewart frequently descended upon the picturesque Cheshire circuit to compete for the prestigious prize.
The event has reimagined itself in recent years as a celebration of those days, with classic single-seaters, GTs, sports cars, and touring cars on track in honour of that heritage. It’s a popular social event too, with one of the biggest classic car club displays you’ll see in the North West, alongside a themed spread of other retro attractions, plus a major car auction. See www.oultonparkgoldcup.com for full details.
The full race line-up, organised by the HSCC, includes Historic Formula 2, 70's Road Sports, Aurora Trophy (with F5000 cars), Classic F3, Classic Formula Fords, Dunlop Saloon Car Cup, Formula Junior, Geoff Lees Trophy (for up to 2 litre single seater race cars from the 1980s), Guards Trophy, Historic Formula Ford 2000, Historic Formula Ford, Historic Formula 3, Historic Road Sports and Historic Touring Cars. On the Monday there will also be a demonstration on track from a classic F1 car.
All tickets will be sent in a presentation wallet and make perfect presents. Alternatively, you can select instant e-tickets.
COVID-19 GUARANTEE: You can book tickets safe in the knowledge that if government restrictions prevent us being able to admit spectators, you will be entitled to a credit or full refund.
