The Goodwood Estate is in the heart of West Sussex and is home to the world famous Festival of Speed, Goodwood Revival and Glorious Goodwood.

An intoxicating mix of cars, stars and motorsport royalty come together over four superb days. The largest event of its kind, the event gathers together the planet’s rarest and most glamorous cars.

With five days of thrilling action, set against the magnificent backdrop of the rolling Sussex countryside, it's the sporting and social highlight of the flat-racing season.

The smell of engines mingles with the roar of iconic race cars as the three-day festival celebrates the halcyon days of motor racing with the accompanying glamour of 1940s, ’50s and ’60s.

Each year, the Goodwood Health Summit gathers world-leading scientists, clinicians and thinkers to debate the ideas shaping a healthier future for people and planet alike.

We offer a wide range of unique experiences for everyone, whether it’s driving the historic circuit, taking to the skies, enjoying a game of golf a delightful afternoon tea at Goodwood House.

For years, the holiday conversation has centred around where we go. This summer, however, it seems more people are thinking about how they want to spend their time once they get there. Research suggests domestic holidays remain firmly on the agenda for British travellers in 2026, while travel trends point towards a growing appetite for more meaningful, experience-led escapes. Industry reports from Virtuoso, Audley Travel and British Airways Holidays all highlight a shift towards holidays that combine relaxation, wellness, culture and memorable experiences, with travellers increasingly seeking destinations that allow them to shape their stay around their own interests rather than follow a fixed itinerary. It’s a trend we’re seeing here with guests booking a stay at Goodwood that goes beyond the ordinary.

This June, a new chapter begins at Goodwood as the estate’s new market garden starts to take root at Home Farm, with its first organic vegetables soon appearing in the Farm Shop and on menus across the estate, including Farmer, Butcher, Chef and The Kennels.
