British Truck Racing and Fireworks

Brands Hatch (Indy)

Saturday 04 - Sunday 05 November 2017

Sparks will fly on and off the track this November when the British Truck Racing Championship (BTRC) concludes on the gladiatorial Indy circuit. Then, as the dust settles on the action on Sunday (only), the sky will light up with a mega 'big bang' fireworks display, accompanied by a superb parade of glittering showtrucks on the racetrack.

This epic family weekend will mix the super-sized race programme with a wealth of family-friendly attractions - see the off track entertainment tab for details.

PARKING INFORMATION
Our public car parks, located right outside the main entrances, will be open throughout the event and are FREE OF CHARGE. Please note that parking spaces on Southbank (the grassed area opposite the rear of the pits) are SOLD OUT for Sunday. Spaces were significantly reduced this year at the request of the fireworks organiser.

AVOID THE RUSH TO LEAVE - STAY LATE WITH MORE TO ENJOY
We're expecting a big crowd and a great atmosphere on Sunday, and inevitably there will be high volumes of traffic leaving the venue as soon as the fireworks have concluded. New for this year, we've added additional entertainment post-fireworks, with an extended funfair, live music and more! Click here for details.

ADVANCE BOOKING HAS NOW CLOSED. TICKETS WILL BE AVAILABLE TO PURCHASE AT THE GATE.
