Disabled Visitor Information

We want to make everyone feel welcome, soak up the atmosphere and feel part of the crowd when they come to the Silverstone Classic. We hope this information will offer you some advice and assistance to ensure you have an enjoyable time at the event.

Wheelchair accessible viewing is available throughout the site. The locations of these areas have been carefully considered to give some of the best views of the circuit. These areas will be clearly indicated on the site plan nearer the event.

These terraces are solely for the use of disabled persons and in particular wheelchair users, with one friend/carer. In some of these areas there is a seat provided for the accompanying person. On the terrace areas carers are asked to please bring their own folding chair. There will be stewards present to assist wheelchair users to access and egress in the case of an emergency exit.

As part of our commitment to make the Silverstone Classic accessible to all, we may provide those disabled ticket holders that require full time assistance with 1 free ticket for a carer. All such applications must be accompanied by a copy of the most recent DLA letter showing your current entitlement. For more information or enquiries please email emily.stables@silverstoneclassic.com

Fair Mobility will be providing electric scooters and other mobility equipment for hire during the 3 days of the Silverstone Classic event. Pre-event bookings can be made between 10am – 4pm weekdays by calling 01949 845 189 or online at www.fair-mobility.org.uk. They will be positioned in Car Park 50 near to the main entrance and the Blue Badge Disabled car parking area. 

Throughout the event single decker buses permitting wheelchair access will operate between the National Paddock at the North end of the circuit infield to the International Paddock at the South end of the circuit infield.            

We will have a large number of disabled car parking spaces located in car park 50. To park in any disabled car parking space, a blue disabled badge must be displayed in your vehicle.

All our permanent disabled toilets are fitted with RADAR locks to prevent access to any non disabled persons. Keys are available to purchase on site at £3.50 from the Paddock Shop, Bridge Shop (when they are open) or the Visitor Centre or you can loan a key for £5 returnable deposit.

A dedicated raised platform for wheelchair access will be available for viewing of the Friday and Saturday evening concerts. Early arrival to this platform is recommended.

Wheelchair and disabled access to the 2^nd floor hospitality areas in the Silverstone Wing International Paddock building can be made through Entrance 3.

NO PETS are permitted on site at the Silverstone Classic although fully trained and registered “assistance” dogs are welcome. Please contact the circuit on 08704 588 251 so that arrangements can be made prior to your arrival. It is however not recommended that animals be subjected to loud noises from some of our Motorsport activities. ‘Assistance’ dogs are not allowed in the paddock, garages or the pit lane. Please do not leave dogs locked in cars in car parking areas.

The site is spread over 850 acres some of which are fields. There are some hard-standing and tarmac areas together with stone paths and trackway, but the site can be very difficult to negotiate. The weather can have a massive impact on how easy it is for people to move around the site, please take this into consideration when deciding on what equipment to bring with you.
