PistonHeads Track Days are back for 2026!
Fancy some flat-out track time with fellow PHers? You're in luck...
As part of our mission to bring more events to the PistonHeads community in 2026, we’ve teamed up with Castle Combe Circuit and MSV to bring PistonHeads Track Days roaring back. These are proper, open-pit-lane events run by the circuits themselves - with PH along for the ride. Expect plenty of track time, a friendly paddock atmosphere, and the usual good-natured PH fun.
All of our track days are for both beginners and seasoned track day goers alike - no matter your driving ability, professional instructors will be on hand to help you get the most out of yourself and your car on the day.
Castle Combe: Official Track Day Partner
We’re proud to announce that PistonHeads is now the official car track day partner for Castle Combe - one of our favourite UK circuits. Track days take place on Fridays, and we’ll be at most dates throughout the year with PistonHeads Merch, the PistonHeads Fleet and maybe even a few special guests…
Castle Combe Track Days run on Fridays from 09:00–17:00, priced at £190 per car. Better yet, free instruction from ARDS-registered instructors is available throughout the day.
All 2026 dates are now live and available to book; just click here for more information. The first Castle Combe track day will be on Friday March 6th 2026.
We’ll also be joining MSV at three brilliant UK circuits over the summer. Sunshine isn’t guaranteed, but we’ll be bringing optimism (and tyre pressure gauges):
- Snetterton Circuit - Tuesday 26th May - book now
- Cadwell Park - Monday 29th June - coming soon
- Brands Hatch - Wednesday 9th September - coming soon
For those looking for more in-depth instruction and track care hire (if you don't fancy taking your pride and joy on track), we've teamed up with Learn2Race. They have a rather excellent hire fleet including a GT86 Pro and a Mercedes-AMG GTS. Not only that, but the L2R team will be on hand at Snetterton, Cadwell Park and Brands Hatch in the PH garage - offering free advice and passenger reference laps to help get the most out of your car.
We'll also be working with Howden Insurance, who’ll be supporting our events throughout 2026. If you are going to take your car on track, be sure to head over to their track day insurance page to find which is best for you. If you’re new to track days, why not check out our track day guide for beginners here, or check out the Track Days forum.
Throughout 2026, we’ll be using these events to test, learn, and gather your feedback - helping shape the future of PistonHeads Track Days. The full calendar can be found below and on our updated events page. See you on circuit!

But the guidance is unclear, it states:
"Is there an age limit? – Yes, you must hold a full driving licence to take part in a track day. Passengers must be over 16 years of age."
Does that mean passengers must be at least 17?
Thank you.
