Brands Hatch celebrates one of the planet’s most passionate automotive nations on Sunday 10 August. This family friendly event blends a themed programme on the race circuit with a colourful off-track show to match. 

Action on the Indy layout includes dedicated races for Ferraris and Alfa Romeos, alongside various parades and demonstrations. Special vehicles taking to the track this year include a selection of ‘80s and ‘90s F1 machines and the rare Maserati MCXtrema hypercar. 

The wider show will embrace Italian culture too, with a major road car display featuring Ferraris, Alfas, Fiats, Lancias and other manufacturers from Italy. There’s also a motorcycle showcase, live Italian music, Italian food market stalls (including Sicilian coffee and Gelato), a Birra Moretti beer garden and so much more. Bellissimo!
