We do not offer on-site camping at either Supercar Fest event and there are no public camping facilities available through Supercar Fest.There are a number of independent campsites close to both Sywell Aerodrome and Shelsley Walsh. These can get very busy over our event weekends, so we strongly recommend booking well in advance.the Runway: Sywell Aerodrome has its own hotel, The Aviator. However, during Supercar Fest the Runway, rooms are reserved for guests of Supercar Fest, our sponsors and event organisers and are therefore not available for general booking over the event weekend.There are plenty of other hotels and accommodation options within the surrounding areas of both venues. Availability can become limited as the events get closer, so if you're planning to stay overnight, we recommend booking your accommodation as early as possible.
the RUNWAY
The start line is where you'll find all the action and we have a 3 tier viewing platform for the best views in the house! There will also be a big screen showing all the action.
the Hill Climb
Shelsley Walsh sits on a hillside, giving you amazing views of the track all the way to the top and letting you get close to the action. You can also watch from the excellent viewing area at the start line, and all ticket holders enjoy access to the main grandstands.
the RunwayYes! On both Saturday and Sunday afternoons, enjoy live acoustic music in the main beer tent, right next to our food and drink area. It's the perfect place to grab some lunch or a drink, take a seat and enjoy the music between all the supercar action.Guests in our VIP Hospitality area can also enjoy a live DJ throughout the day, adding to the atmosphere of the VIP experience.the Hill ClimbThe live action may finish at 5pm on Saturday, but the day isn't over!

Dogs are NOT permitted at any Supercar Fest events.
One of the things that makes Supercar Fest special is just how close you can get to the cars.Unlike many automotive events, we have very few fenced-off areas and visitors have full access to the main paddocks and display areas, giving you the opportunity to see some truly incredible cars up close throughout the day.You'll often find owners and drivers with their cars, and many are more than happy to chat, answer questions and show you around. You may even get the opportunity to sit inside some of the cars - with the owner's permission, of course!Certain areas, including parts of our Hypercar Zone at the Runway, may have additional barriers or restrictions to protect particularly rare and valuable vehicles.Supercar Fest is all about bringing you closer to the cars, drivers and owners, rather than watching everything from behind a fence.
the RunwayPassenger rides are provided by our charity partner, Sporting Bears, giving visitors the opportunity to experience an incredible selection of cars while raising money for our designated children's charity.To take part, simply head to the yellow Sporting Bears marquee when you arrive at the event. There, you'll be able to register and make a donation to charity. Once you've completed the necessary indemnities, you'll receive a passenger wristband and be allocated a time slot for your Dream Ride.Passenger rides are available to adults and children aged 6 and over. Rides cannot be pre-booked and are always extremely popular, so we strongly recommend visiting the Sporting Bears marquee as early as possible to avoid disappointment.Over the years, together we have raised more than £75,000 for children's charities through Dream Rides, making it a fantastic opportunity to experience something special while supporting a great cause.the Hill ClimbSporting Bears do not attend the Hill Climb, so passenger rides work differently. Some of our demonstration drivers may be willing to take passengers up the famous Shelsley Walsh hill during the day, although this is entirely at the individual driver's discretion.If you're interested, speak directly with the drivers in the paddock. If a driver agrees, they will need to sign you in as a passenger at the paddock office, where you'll be required to complete a disclaimer and pay a £10 passenger fee.Helmets are mandatory for all Hill Climb passenger rides. We recommend bringing your own helmet where possible, although a limited number may be available to hire from the venue, subject to availability.
Both Supercar Fest events have designated parking areas for Blue Badge holders, along with accessible toilet facilities.Access to the main event and paddock areas is generally straightforward for wheelchair users and visitors with limited mobility. However, please be aware that both venues include areas of grass, uneven ground and outdoor terrain, which may be more difficult to navigate, particularly in poor weather.At the Hill Climb, Shelsley Walsh is a historic motorsport venue set on a hillside, so some areas of the site are naturally more challenging for wheelchair users and those with limited mobility to access.
