Tickets go on sale for Donington Historic Festival

Tickets are now on sale for next year's Donington Historic Festival, which takes place over the May Bank Holiday weekend (2-4 May).

As always, there's a packed program of racing. The Super Touring Car Trophy joins Le Mans prototypes, single-seater racing cars, GT cars, sportscars and Touring Cars to offer three days of grids from the 1930s to the 1990s.

New for 2015 are displays and demonstrations from historic Formula One and Grand Prix cars, plus a selection of Supercars across the decades.

Away from track, the historic rally cars will be entertaining the crowds. Both the race car and rally car paddocks will be open to all – allowing you to get up close to the machines and the mechanics. 

The historic karts will also be returning to Donington Park for the event, as will the displays in the infield, staged by dozens of car clubs.

The ticket price also includes entry to the Donington Grand Prix Collection - home of the world’s largest collection of Grand Prix cars.

Advance tickets cost £20 for a single day ticket, £32 for a two-day ticket and just £45 for a three-day weekend ticket (on-the-gate prices will be £25, £40 and £60, respectively).

Children aged under 16 are admitted for free. Advance discounted tickets can be bought via www.doningtonhistoric.com and through the 24-hour ticket hotline 0844 873 7355. Advance ticket sales close at 5pm on Wednesday, April 29, 2015.
