Members' Meeting FAQs

We had hoped that by following UK Government advice and implementing a number of additional safety and hygiene protocols, we could all ‘Keep Calm and Carry On’ as coronavirus threatened the 78th Members’ Meeting. Alas, with the situation constantly evolving, and the news that the UK Government plan to restrict mass gatherings later this week; the safety and wellbeing of our customers is our highest priority. As such, we regret to inform you that the 78th Members’ Meeting, which was due to take place on March 28-29, has been postponed.

SHOPMOBILITY

As with any exclusive club, the Members’ Meeting is intended to be stylish and relaxed – an informal yet smart event, with everyone asked to respect our style guide. It is a great excuse for both ladies and gentlemen to wear their smartest countryside attire, and when the weather can’t make up its mind, a wax jacket with tweed accessories wouldn’t go amiss, not forgetting an umbrella.

Please remember that it can get very chilly in the Spring, so we recommend bringing lots of layers, and thermals if the forecast is looking cold. Layers can be stored in our lockers available at the event.

Parking is on grass so suitable footwear is recommended, including wellingtons when wet.

If you lose something at Members' Meeting please visit the nearest Information Point as the lost item may have been handed in. Alternatively, telephone the Ticket Office on 01243 755055 or email ticket.office@goodwood.com providing as much information as possible about the item and where you feel you lost it.

If you find any lost property, please hand it in to the Information Shed outside the Earls Court Motor Show.

Should the worst happen and you do lose someone from your party, please report to the nearest Information office, or member of staff if you can’t see an office, and then return to the last place you were together. Most people tend to return to the last place you saw them, so try not to stray too far from that point.

Don't worry about not knowing how many coats to bring, as we know the British weather is temperamental and you may not want to have to carry them around. So, to make it easy, there are cloakroom facilities available located next to the Ticket Office.

Every guest, including the drivers, can score points for their House, Methuen, Aubigny, Torbolton or Darnley, by taking part in fun activities ranging from tug-of-war to a duck herding. These House activities certainly aren’t compulsory (if you and your guests just want to sit back, relax, and enjoy the action taking place on the circuit, that’s absolutely fine with us), but they really do add to the sense of camaraderie and fun. Honorary House Captains lead the four Members’ Meeting Houses. All famous names from the world of motorsport, they bring enthusiasm and a competitive spirit to the on-track and off-track proceedings.

All attending the meeting will be assigned to one of the four houses.

Each house name has been carefully chosen for its relevance and importance to the Duke of Richmond and his family across the generations.

The Goodwood family have been stewards of the land for centuries, working to preserve the estate and environment beyond. From reducing waste to off-setting carbon emissions, we are continually working to make our events greener, with the following initiatives:

• Encouraging our visitors to use public transport or car share to get to the event, to help reduce car emissions and traffic in the local area
• Offering ticket buyers the opportunity to make an optional donation when buying tickets, to offset individual carbon footprints. These donations will be used for tree planting and re-wilding projects
• Switching to bio-diesel (hydrotreated vegetable oil) from regular diesel for all of our generators over the next three years, reducing the generator carbon footprint by around 80-90%
• Supplying drinking water stations across the event and encourage visitors and staff to bring their own reusable bottles
• From 2020, any bottled water on-site will be sold in 100% recycled plastic bottles.  We have chosen this route as it removes single-use plastic and the carbon footprint is far lower than switching to cans
• Providing recycling bins for plastic bottles and cans around the event
• Recycling glass and cardboard in all kitchen and bar areas
• Introducing reusable cups to remove single-use disposable plastic cups from our events.  You pay £1 deposit for your first drink, swap the cup with each drink, then claim your £1 back at any exchange point at the end of the day.  Or you can take it home and continue to use it!
• Offering a 20p discount on hot drinks if you supply your own cup
• Ensuring all food serve wear is compostable or paper-based
• Planting thousands of trees each year and continue to improve the environment through numerous hedge laying and re-wilding projects
