Everyone is welcome to join us at what is probably the largest New Year’s Day Classic vehicle gathering in the UK.  With over 1,000 classic vehicles displayed around our historic site, live music, a winter BBQ and other catering outlets offering breakfast and lunch – there’s something for the whole family.

Bring your cherished classic vehicle, all those pre-31 July 1994 are welcome to form a static display against the backdrop of our historic site and its Collection. For example, the registration number for this date will have a L prefix, eg. L123 ABC.

Modern sports and supercars are welcome too, we have a dedicated parking area for you in The Heights.

This event is always extremely popular, we advise you to book your entry tickets in advance to guarantee admission.  We recommend Brooklands Members visit the Members’ section of the website to book tickets in advance, this will help speed up your arrival experience.

There will be multiple entry gates open, please read the getting here and parking information carefully to establish which gate you should be using for your vehicle.  There will be yellow event temporary signage, please follow these directions rather than the brown tourist signs to the Museum.

Gates open at 9am, Museum exhibitions and displays open at 10am.
