Launched last year with great success, the German Car Festival returns for 2024 but at a brand new venue! If you want to see the greatest collection of modified German cars, get yourself to Goodwood on the 5th<\/sup> of October for the German Car Festival. Here’s what you can expect to see at the show.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

In 2023, the German Car Festival brought together an amazing collection of performance and modified Germanic rides. This year\u2019s event promises to be even bigger with an array of pristine performance cars, clubs and displays already booked into the show. Expect to see BMW M3s, Audi RSs, Mercedes AMGs, and Porsche GT3s rubbing shoulders with every generation of Volkswagen\u2019s Golf to emerge from Wolfsburg.<\/p>\n

Get on Track at Glorious Goodwood!<\/strong><\/h2>\n

In 2024 the GCF has switched venues to the iconic Goodwood Motor Circuit, located near Chichester, West Sussex. Goodwood has played a significant role in British motorsport since its inception in 1948. Originally established by Freddie March, the 9th Duke of Richmond, the circuit quickly became a hub for racing enthusiasts. Legendary drivers like Stirling Moss and Jackie Stewart have raced here and now Goodwood is playing host to the German Car Festival. You can follow in Moss\u2019s and Stewart\u2019s footsteps (or should we say tyre tracks) by booking a track session at the German Car Festival\u2026<\/p>\n

In fact, there\u2019s never been a cheaper way to experience the famous circuit, with half day, open pit lane sessions available for \u00a3175 and full day sessions at \u00a3335. That\u2019s cheaper than Goodwood do it themselves.<\/p>\n

As you would expect, these track slots are filling up fast, so if you\u2019ve got a German car that you want to put through its paces on some of the most famous tarmac in the UK, you need to book your slot now.<\/p>\n
