THE EXPERIENCE

WHAT IS FIRLE BEACON?

A celebration of all things automobile. From rally cars to supercars, from classics to ultra-modern. There will be three paddocks of extraordinary vehicles which will be open to spectators to view up close – in displays and demonstrations.

WHAT CAN I EXPECT FROM FIRLE BEACON?

Firle Beacon is a celebration of 70 years of worldwide rally sport.

A Rally Paddock will invoke the sights and ambiance of a genuine ‘rally service area’. Meanwhile, the over 2 mile rally stage demonstration course starting at the main gates will use estate roads, then exit the park via through the village and along the chalk road before ending with a fantastic climb up to Firle Beacon.

Marvel at the Supercar Paddock with the very best of modern supercars displayed, including alternative power model. Vehicles will be displayed and demonstrated over a standing quarter-mile sprint course four times a day on both days.

Expect historic / vintage cars, car clubs, bars & food, trade stands and more!
