Date change for Silverstone Classic 2017

The date for the 2017 Silverstone Classic has been changed to the weekend of 28-30 July. It was originally scheduled to take place 21-23 July – a week earlier.

The move follows the FIA’s decision to revise the date for the British Grand Prix, which is also held at the Northamptonshire circuit. The massive operational complexities involved in the organisation of the two major international events – both attracting more than 100,000 visitors – make it impossible for Silverstone to host its two most popular annual attractions on consecutive weekends.

Tickets already purchased for the 2017 Silverstone Classic will be valid for the revised dates, while ticket-holders now unable to attend due to the date change have until 28 February to request a full refund. Details of this process have been emailed to those who have already taken advantage of the Early Bird ticket offer.

Early Bird tickets for the 2017 Silverstone Classic are on sale, with prices for adults starting from just £35 and the cost of the three-day weekend ticket remaining at £99, making them a great Christmas gift. Details of all ticket prices, as well as hospitality and camping options are now available on the silverstoneclassic.com website.
