For more than 75 years, we’ve been at the heart of British motorsport, creating iconic sporting moments, delivering world-class events and welcoming fans from across the globe. Today, Silverstone is one of the world’s most recognised sporting venues and a thriving year-round destination for sport, entertainment, leisure and business.
Each year, more than two million visitors join us across our 600-acre estate. We’re proud to host the Formula 1 British Grand Prix and British Grand Prix MotoGP, alongside a packed calendar of major motorsport events, live entertainment and unforgettable experiences.
But Silverstone is about much more than race weekends.
Visitors can take on the circuit with Silverstone Drive, experience high-speed racing at Kart Silverstone, explore more than 75 years of motorsport history at Silverstone Museum, stay trackside at Escapade Silverstone or Hilton Garden Inn, and enjoy an expanding programme of live music, hospitality, conferences and events.
Our stages have welcomed some of the world’s biggest artists, including Stormzy, RAYE, Calvin Harris, David Guetta, Fatboy Slim and Sam Fender, bringing a new energy to one of Britain’s most legendary sporting venues.
Behind it all is a team driven by ambition, innovation and a shared belief in creating experiences people never forget. From global sporting events and major commercial partnerships to destination development, sustainability and new ways for fans to experience Silverstone, we’re continually racing towards what comes next.
This is where history is made, boundaries are pushed and extraordinary happens.
The Nürburgring is one of the most legendary race tracks in the world. Loved and feared: the world-famous Nordschleife, the “Green Hell” in the splendid Eifel forests. But the Nürburgring is more than just a race track. It is also a vibrant conference and trade fair location, a popular getaway destination and a guarantee for impressive experiences. Since the race track was opened in 1927, every single story contributed to the creation of a unique myth that can be felt and experienced by all. A living legend that fascinates motorsport fans and teams, the automotive industry and visitors and corporate customers alike.
The Automobile Club de l’Ouest (ACO) founded in 1906 is the creator and organiser of major motor sporting events including the first grand prix in the history of motor racing in 1906 followed by the Le Mans 24 Hours in 1923. The ACO’s aim is to develop long-distance racing and since 2012 it has been the organiser and promoter of the FIA World Endurance Championship (FIA WEC). The club is also the creator of the continental series: the WeatherTech SportsCar Championship, former American Le Mans Series (1999), the European Le Mans Series (2004), and the Asian Le Mans Series (2013). On its own circuits at Le Mans, the ACO organises the 24 Heures Motos, the 24 Heures Karting, the 24 Heures Camions and the French Motorcycle...
But above all the ACO is a club made up of enthusiasts who defend the rights of car users on a daily basis, and it gives its members a privileged welcome to enable them to live their passion for motor sport at the events it organises.
The ACO also has a driving school, Le Mans Driver, a leisure and kart competition complex and simulators, an Enterprise department for the organisation of seminars, a team of guides providing tours of the installations of the Le Mans circuits, four official boutiques as well as five regional agencies.
