LIVE PROMOTIONS TO DRIVE A NEW ERA FOR
LONDON’S MOTORSPORT AT THE PALACE
Live Promotions, the organisers of Race Retro and
Sywell Classic Pistons & Props, will drive London’s
Motorsport at the Palace event into a new era,
after taking over the two-day event held at Crystal
Palace on Sunday 29th and Monday 30th May
2016.
Previously organised by Sevenoaks and District
Motor Club since its revival in 2010, Live will work
with the club to grow the event both on and off
the circuit using its valuable knowledge of outdoor
events.
Held at Crystal Palace, one of the oldest venues
used for racing in the world and the first place
from which live televised motor-racing was ever
broadcast, the event attracts racing drivers from
all over the world and boasts some of the greatest
names in motorsport taking a run around the
circuit including Sir Stirling Moss, Jim Clark, Graham
Hill and James Hunt.
Tom Siddall, Event Director at Live Promotions, said:
“This is a fantastic event held at an amazing venue,
steeped in motoring history. Working with Sevenoaks
and District Motor Club, we will look to expand the
motorsport offering, attracting more high profile and
diverse cars as well as encouraging other clubs – with
both modern and classic marques to make this a true
celebration of all this motoring.”
With around 35 clubs displaying their cars at the
2015 event, Live Promotions is looking to expand this
by offering clubs a five-car display space as well as
growing the trader village. There will also be new
attractions such as live music and a family fun fair
Motorsport at the Palace will be held on Sunday 29th
to Monday 30th May 2016 over the Bank Holiday
weekend. Tickets are now on sale, with adults passes
from £12 and children from £5 when booked in
advance. Car parking is available on-site and is free
to visitors.
