The Thruxton Retro attracts car enthusiasts from all over the UK and beyond. On track, look out for the Jochen Rindt Trophy, the blue ribbon race of the weekend, alongside Classic Touring Cars, MG Owners Club, GT & Sports, FISCAR, Sports 2000, Mini 7 and Mini Miglia. But this event is not just about racing on track. It also features an impressive display of retro, classic, historic and vintage cars from various car clubs, allowing attendees to experience the rich history of automotive engineering. There's live music on the main stage from Oasish, Britpop United and Blurb, and a 90s fancy dress competition with lots of prizes to win. The event offers an enjoyable day out for families, with a range of exciting activities available for kids. For those who want to make the most of their experience, camping is available for the weekend, giving visitors an opportunity to stay close to the action and fully immerse themselves in the Thruxton Retro experience.
2025 HIGHLIGHTS
Live Music
We took the audience on a musical journey back to the 70s with an incredible lineup of live acts. Crowds danced the night away to Björn Again, grooved with Earth Wind for Hire and sang along to classic hits from our very own Dolly Parton tribute, plus many more fantastic performers.
Kids Zone
Retro’s Kids Zone was bursting with fun for our younger visitors. Children tested their talents with circus skills, zoomed around in Krazy Karts and even got creative with car painting, alongside plenty more activities. It was the perfect place for families to play and have fun together.
F1 Demos
We brought legendary machines from the sport’s past back to life on the UK’s fastest circuit. These iconic cars were certainly fast and certainly loud, giving spectators a rare chance to experience them up close. It was a highlight of the weekend and a true celebration of Formula 1 heritage.
Car Clubs
Hundreds of cherished machines spanning every era, make and model lined the banks of the track, creating a living, breathing celebration of automotive history. From timeless classics to modern icons, the car clubs added colour and character to the entire weekend, giving visitors the chance to get up close to beautifully preserved and lovingly maintained vehicles.
Historic Racing
The legendary Jochen Rindt Trophy lit up the track with evocative single-seaters from the 60s, 70s and 80s, while the MG Owners Club Championship and Superformance Ferrari Club brought beautifully prepared classics back into wheel-to-wheel action. Mighty Minis delivered their trademark door-to-door excitement, and the GT & Sportscar Cup added stunning variety with a grid full of historic endurance legends. And that was just the start, fans enjoyed an even wider mix of historic categories throughout the weekend, ensuring there was something special on track in every session.
Food & Drink
Food and drink played a huge part in the 2025 atmosphere, with a wide variety of options to suit every taste. The brand-new Beer Tent and Cocktail Bar quickly became fan favourites, offering refreshing drinks throughout the weekend. Visitors enjoyed everything from a classic hog roast to gourmet street-food stalls, sweet treats and much more
Fancy Dress
One of the standout moments was the fantastic Fancy Dress Competition, where fans embraced the full 70s spirit with outrageous outfits, bold colours and plenty of disco flair. The paddock came alive with retro fashion as visitors helped elevate the festival atmosphere. The highlight was the epic dance-off on the main stage, where enthusiastic participants battled it out with their best moves and one lucky fan was crowned the 2025 Fancy Dress Champion, taking home some brilliant prizes and bragging rights for the year.THRUXTON NEWS
