Forest Rally Stage

For die-hard rally fans there really is no place quite like the Forest Rally Stage

For die-hard rally fans there really is no place quite like the Forest Rally Stage

If you prefer your motorsport with rough surfaces, the occasional jump, plenty of oversteer and a dose of dust, the Forest Rally Stage is the place to be.

  • Touching Distance

    Rallying puts you closer to the action than any other motorsport in the world, and here it’s no different.

  • Rally Legends

    Don't just watch the biggest names in rallying, meet them in daily signing sessions.

  • Open Paddock

    Access the paddock throughout the day and watch in awe as these machines come alive.

The Forest Rally Stage is nestled in idyllic woodland, and the road is a single, dusty track. For most of the year all that’s audible are the birds flitting between the trees. But for just one weekend of the year, the silence is torn apart and the tight hairpin turns and blind crests of the track are decimated by fire-breathing rally cars.

Rally Legends

The Forest Rally Stage features the biggest names in rallying, including Sebastien Ogier, Sébastian Loeb, Ken Block, Petter Solberg, Rauno Aaltonen, Juha Kankkunen and Elfyn Evans. Signing sessions will be scheduled each day giving you the chance to meet your heroes.

Purest Form of Rally

Underneath the woodland canopy, modern WRC Citroën C3 and Fiestas can be seen barrelling into corners, chasing after rally legends like the Lancia Delta Integrale and Audi Quattro, leaving enormous dust clouds in their wakes. The very best cars and drivers in the world assemble to push themselves to the bitter limit for a roaring crowd, just how rallying was always supposed to be. This is the greatest place on earth to see witness the purest form of Rally.

Open Paddock

The Forest Rally Stage has an open paddock, walk freely throughout the paddock all day to see the most incredible rally cars be prepped. Or attend a signing session to get autographs and photos with your favourite drivers throughout the weekend. Who will you bump into in the paddock?

More than any other part of the Goodwood Festival of Speed, the Forest Rally Stage gives you the most access to the cars, racers, and action...I could have camped out at the rally stage all weekend and never, ever been bored.
