About Festival of Speed
The Festival of Speed is far more than just a hill climb - it is a celebration of the history of motor sport and can justifiably claim to be the world's biggest and most diverse classic motor sports event. Famous drivers and riders have attended such as Sir Stirling Moss, Jenson Button, and Lewis Hamilton! More than 7km of temporary roadway is laid down in the park and more than 2000 acres of grassland is mown over three months in preparation. From 25,000 visitors at the inaugural 1993 event, attendance at the Festival of Speed has grown to accommodate 150,000 visitors each year. Building the temporary hill climb course takes around 2000 man hours of labour, and a further 1200 man hours to dismantle it again. At least as many man hours again are devoted to erecting the marquees and exhibition stands.
