Get set for the 12th Le Mans Classic event, taking place over the weekend of 3rd to 6th July 2025. It takes place on the Le Mans circuit, the renowned Circuit de la Sarthe. The last event in 2023 celebrated the centenary of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, attracting around 235,000 visitors. And this year promises to be equally epic.
The endurance race starts at 16:00 on the Saturday, but there’s a lot to see before then. Look out for a parade of European Car Clubs and an auction of classic cars and automobilia. There’s an array of entertainment and exhibitions to enjoy, including drive-in car movies. Don’t miss the jaw-dropping displays of historic racing cars. A ‘Happy Few’ can also drive track laps!
