Off track there will be car displays, kids’ zones, bars and food trucks, exhibitors and traders, activations and more, in a picnic in the park setting.
The on-track action is non-stop without a break in track activity at any stage of the two days of the event from the first session at 8:30am to the last session at 5:30pm.
Every category will be on track twice each day of the event, aside from Formula 1 which will have three sessions per day due to popular demand.
