American SpeedFest 8 blasts to Brands Hatch on Independence Day for a weekend of NASCAR, hot dogs, cowboy boots, and more star spangled horsepower than you’ll find anywhere else this side of the Atlantic on 3/4 July 2021.
On-track action will be headlined by the NASCAR Whelen Euro Series – the only official NASCAR series on the continent – with a big grid of stock cars hustling around the world-famous Indy circuit.
With COVID restrictions, and a limited capacity, this year's event will feel a litle different to before; but there's still American-themed support races, a whopper of an off-track vehicle display and lots more to see and do!
PLEASE NOTE: Due to COVID restrictions there will be no grid walks or pit walks at this year's event.
HOW WE ARE KEEPING VISITORS SAFE
A number of measures will be in operation at this event, in accordance with government COVID-Secure guidelines. Click here to download a summary. Here are the key changes:
- Access to all working areas (e.g. paddock, pit lane and garages) will be limited to competitors, volunteer officials, credentialed persons, marshals and those providing a service at the event
- Grandstand seating will be reconfigured and capacities limited to allow for social distancing – if this impacts your booking, you will be contacted separately
- Regrettably it will not be possible to stage any grid walks or pit walks at this year’s event due to COVID-19
If you ordered weekend camping, that is unaffected and camping will be going ahead as planned.

Paddock Hill Saturday
Paddock Hill grandstand provides superb views through one of Brands Hatch's most iconic bends and is an ideal location to watch the start line action, as the field jostle for position heading into the first corner. The sweeping curves of Paddock Hill and round Druids Hairpin are key places for overtaking and are often the scenes of breathtaking manoeuvres and dramatic incidents!

Why not make a weekend of it and stay on-site at Brands Hatch? We have two dedicated areas - a Quiet campsite and our livelier General campsite, both with full facilities - just a short stroll from the racetrack. You can select your preference when booking tickets online.
Click on the tabs below for detailed information. Please note you will need to be in possession of a valid admission ticket/pass in addition to a camping ticket in order to gain access to the campsite.
The campsite opens at midday on the day before the event, and closes at midday on the day after the event has finished. Please note - facilities will be provided in full during this time.
You are welcome to bring your car or bike onto the campsite with you. Please head to the main entrance on arrival, and you will be directed to the campsite and issued with a wristband.
Caravans and Motorhomes are permitted and will be directed on arrival at the venue.
There is no shop located on the campsite, but there are supermarkets nearby, including a Co-Op in West Kingsdown (approx 15 minute walk), and our circuit restaurants will be serving hot food, snacks and drinks.
BBQs are permitted as long as they are raised off the ground, but open fires are not permitted. You are welcome to bring your own alcohol too.
Animals are not permitted anywhere on site at Brands Hatch (except Guide/Assistance dogs), including the campsite.
The campsite will offer full facilities for the duration of its operating hours, including toilets, showers and drinking water standpipes.
The toilets are cleaned and emptied throughout the weekend. Please help us by keeping them clean and tidy.
Please do not use the surrounding woods or bushes. If you are found doing so, you may be ejected from the campsite and your wristband will be confiscated.
There are hot showers located on the campsite. Please be aware that the queues can be long at peak times.
There are plenty of bins provided, which are emptied during the weekend. Bin bags are provided at the campsite entrance.
Breakfast, lunch and dinner is available in our permanent Kentagon and Hailwoods Restaurants inside the circuit.
Please note - there are no electrical hook-ups available.
The Quiet and General campsites are both located to the north of the circuit, approximately 80 metres from the H-Gate entrance. Head to the main entrance off the A20 (next to the Mercure Hotel) when you arrive.
We work extremely hard to keep our site secure. We have a team of security guards patrolling our campsite 24 hours a day, in addition to our other campsite staff including fire and medical teams. Nevertheless, thieves have been known to operate in the area, so we highly recommend keeping your valuables safe at all times, either by locking them in your car, or keeping them on your person.
MSV will accept no responsibility for loss or damage sustained to these items.
Please keep noise to a minimum after 22:30 in the Quiet campsite area, and midnight in the General area. This includes the use of generators wherever possible, particularly if they are portable external units. Any campers that persist in making excessive noise after this time may be evicted from the campsite without refund of ticket fees, or even banned from the venue permanently in extreme cases.
Road-registered vehicles are permitted within the campsites, but scooters and mini-motos are not permitted. Please be considerate of others and keep vehicle movement to a minimum. Sleeping in vans is not advised.
Campers under the age of 16 years must be accompanied by an appropriate adult.
Strictly no animals are allowed on site at any time, however Guide/Assistance dogs are permitted when pre-arranged with the venue.
Open fires are not permitted on the campsite (no wood burning). Barbecues are permitted but must be raised off the ground. Please dispose of coals and single use barbecues (once cool) in the metal bins provided.
Never leave a hot stove or barbeque unattended. Keep roadways and fire lanes clear at all times. Store fuel and generators away from ignition sources. Fire extinguishers are located at various fire points around the campsite. Use only in an emergency and raise the alarm immediately.
The campsite speed limit is 10mph. Only drive if strictly necessary and watch for children.
Secure tents and gazebos carefully - always prepare for high winds!
Never use a portable barbeque or gas burner inside a tent, awning or enclosed space (for cooking, or heating when cold). A cooling barbeque can also give off poisonous gas.
Never run a generator inside a tent, awning or confined space. Consider purchasing a Carbon Monoxide alarm and use it inside your caravan or motor home if running an installed gas appliance.
Always check your gas cylinder for damage before using. Maintain good ventilation when using portable gas (remember to use it outside only).
Never smoke near any gas cylinder and keep all ignition sources away.
Visitors to events at all four MSV circuits can benefit from the use of free WiFi.
The service can be accessed from the pit garages and spectator grandstands at Brands Hatch, Snetterton and Oulton Park, plus venue restaurants (including Cadwell Park). This scale of coverage is unprecedented amongst UK motorsport venues.
To access the facility, provided free-of-charge via the Purple WiFi portal, users simply select MSV-HOTSPOT-WIFI from their smartphone, tablet or PC and log in using their Facebook or email address details.
This free service is also available throughout the week, incorporating trackdays and testing in addition to weekend race events.
There is designated disabled parking available near the main Paddock Hill Grandstand and you may also park free of charge on Southbank (opposite the rear of the pit garages). Vehicles parked in these areas must display a Blue Badge and will be directed by venue staff on arrival. If you intend to park near to Paddock Hill Grandstand please head to the main entrance (next to the Mercure Hotel).
There is a dedicated wheelchair viewing area in Paddock Hill Grandstand with free of charge access to wheelchair users plus one carer. Any additional carers, friends or family must be in possession of a valid grandstand ticket. Please contact our ticket office on 0843 453 9000 to reserve space in the wheelchair viewing area in advance.
Sunday is the main on track event day, however we have extended Saturday’s activities off track, including NASCAR racing, monster trucks and hundreds of amazing American display cars.
We offer a discount to our guests that are aged 65 and over. Senior Citizen tickets can be purchased on the gate. The prices are £18 on Saturday and £21 on Sunday.
Parking is free of charge for all public car parks. If you wish to park on Southbank (the large grassed area opposite Cooper Straight) the charge is £5 per car on the Saturday and £5 per car on the Sunday. If you plan on parking on Southbank you will need to display a pass that you can purchase on the day.
