The Members' Meeting revives Goodwood's closed-circuit racing era of 1948 to 1966, run each spring for members of the Goodwood Road Racing Club alone.
The 84th Members’ Meeting opens Goodwood’s motorsport year at Goodwood Motor Circuit in Chichester, West Sussex, on Saturday 10 and Sunday 11 April 2027. It is open to members of the Goodwood Road Racing Club and those they bring.
The Members’ Meetings began in 1948, when the 9th Duke of Richmond opened the circuit to members of the British Automobile Racing Club. The series continued until the circuit closed to racing in 1966.
Goodwood revived it in 2014 as the 72nd meeting, picking up the numbering where it had stopped 48 years earlier.
The meeting is run for the club and its members, which sets it apart from the estate’s other two motoring weekends. The paddock stays open, and grids are assembled around a theme. The demonstrations run cars too experimental for a public meeting.
Bonhams holds a live auction of collector cars at the circuit on Sunday 11 April, with the lots on view across both days of the meeting.
It comes ahead of the Festival of Speed, founded in 1993, and the Revival, founded in 1998. That makes it the oldest of the estate’s three motoring weekends and, as a revival, the youngest.
