Take a look at our calendar to see what we’ve got planned for Bristol Owners’ Club Limited members over the coming months.
EVENTS
24-26 July 2026 (Friday-Sunday) BRDC Classic - Silverstone Circuit, Towcester, Northamptonshire NN12 8TN
The club has a stand at the inaugural BRDC Classic, a new event celebrating historic racing cars. The theme for the stand is 400 and 603 models celebrating 80 and 50 years respectively, but all other Bristol owners are most welcome. We have a slot for a track parade of 400 and 603 models on the Friday. This new event focuses more on racing and less on fairground and other family entertainment. Prices are also much less for this event. The cost for two adults and car is £65 for 3 days, £20 for Friday and £40 for either Saturday or Sunday. Online booking for code for a ‘Car Club package' is 012CCD2026 and should be used when booking via this link (https://www.silverstone.co.uk/events/brdc-classic/car-club-owners). Do come and see us over the weekend on the stand for refreshments and catchups, ideally with your car.
