Coronavirus (Covid-19)

Following advice received from the UK Government, we have decided to postpone the Festival of Speed presented by Mastercard to later this year. We want to be sure of choosing the best possible date, this will require some careful consideration and as soon as we have that we will let you know. 

Mostly likely it will happen in late summer, early autumn and your tickets and hospitality bookings remain valid for the new date. If you have not yet bought a ticket for the Festival of Speed and would like to know as soon as the new dates are announced, you can keep up to date here.

For urgent queries about your tickets, please contact ticketoffice@goodwood.com

We’re currently working on a new date for the Festival of Speed and you will be notified as soon as that is confirmed. Please rest assured that we are working on this as quickly as possible and your booking remains valid for the rescheduled event. If your query is urgent, please email us on Hospitality@Goodwood.com and someone will respond to you as soon as possible.

We regret to inform you that the 78th Members’ Meeting, which was due to take place on March 28-29, has been postponed. We are currently exploring potential alternative dates with all relevant parties and would like to reassure you that all tickets will remain valid for the new date.

The Breakfast Club: Everything But The Car Sunday, scheduled for 3 May has now been cancelled.

If you have any questions about your specific circumstances please email ticket.office@goodwood.com

As I’m sure you understand, organising an event of this scale involves many different parties. We want to make sure that the alternative date will allow all races and event celebrations to go ahead as planned. Please rest assured that we are working on this as quickly as possible and we will update all our ticket-buyers as soon as a decision is made.

We will continue to review plans for the Goodwood Revival, in the hope that this will be able to go ahead as planned, as well as looking forward to the rescheduled 78th Members’ Meeting and Festival of Speed.

Please contact your travel provider and also check your travel insurance policy. If your travel or accommodation was booked through Goodwood Travel, please contact Meon Valley by phone on 01243 216618.

Sadly, Goodwoof, which was due to take place on 24 and 25 May, has been postponed until spring 2021. We are currently exploring potential alternative dates. We would like to reassure you that all tickets will remain valid for the new date.

At present the full 2020 fixture list is planned to go ahead with our first fixture being on Saturday 2nd May. We will continue to be guided by the Government, Public Health England and the sport’s governing body, the British Horseracing Authority. Currently, all horseracing in England, Scotland and Wales is cancelled under the guidance of the BHA, until the end of April. This is a continually evolving situation and we will keep the public informed in relation to our fixture list.

In the event that government guidelines and the guidance of the BHA remain in place and prevent our first fixture from taking place or indeed any later fixtures, 2020 tickets will remain valid for 2021 or we will offer a full refund.

Please contact your travel provider and also check your travel insurance policy. If your travel or accommodation was booked through Goodwood Travel, please contact Meon Valley by phone on 01243 216618.
