The museum, to be funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund, will include extra private space for groups as well as hi-tech interactive exhibitions with guided tours.  

The Silverstone Heritage Experience will be housed in a converted Second World War aircraft hangar and is expected to open in spring 2019.

The Silverstone Circuit already has extensive meeting and events facilities. These include five large events and exhibition halls plus 40 pit garages offering nearly 6,000sq-mt of flexible space, all with HGV access.

Facilities also include a range of smaller, more intimate meeting and breakout rooms as well as balconies overlooking the Grand Prix Circuit.

Silverstone is well located between Birmingham and London, with easy access to all the major transport links.
