Masters Historic Festival – Brands Hatch 100 Years Anniversary

From 30–31 May, the Masters Historic Festival returns to Brands Hatch at a truly historic moment, as the circuit celebrates its 100th Anniversary in 2026. Running under the official centenary theme, “A Century of Power,” the Masters Historic Festival stands as a cornerstone event in a year dedicated to celebrating one of the world’s most iconic racing venues. Set within Kent’s natural amphitheatre, Brands Hatch’s sweeping views, close-up spectator areas, and preserved classic layout deliver a racing experience that is authentic, immersive, and deeply rooted in the circuit’s heritage.

As the original and unrivalled historic racing event at Brands Hatch, the Masters Historic Festival continues to set the benchmark for historic motorsport at this iconic circuit. Across the weekend, a rich and diverse selection of historic racing will take to the track, with the full programme of Masters Series in action, joined by our friends from the Historic Grand Prix Cars Association and HVM’s F2 (1967–1978) and F3 (1974–1984) Classic Interseries, as well as classically styled pre-1966 Grand Prix cars, adding further depth and prestige to an already exceptional racing schedule. From roaring Cosworth DFV-powered Formula One cars, endurance prototypes, modern GT machinery, to beautifully prepared pre-66 GT and touring cars — all taking on the preserved 1960s layout of Brands Hatch Grand Prix circuit.

Away from the circuit, the Masters Historic Festival is just as much about atmosphere as it is about racing. The Masters Drivers Club provides a welcoming social hub throughout the weekend, offering a place to relax, reconnect, and enjoy the unique festival spirit with friends, family, and fellow competitors.

Mark your calendars and join us as we celebrate the rich heritage of British racing.
