I’ve applied and been confirmed for Porsche Club parking behind the Porsche stand but haven’t received any instructions yet about how to get to that particular car park and what signs to follow etc.

Has anyone else got these or have they not been issued yet?

I don’t own a Porsche but goto the FOS most years.

The obvious way in would be the car park entrance off New Barn Hill, then bottom of the hill and around to the left hand side. That’s where the Porsche stand has been situated for many years.

Received an email this afternoon to say that the passes are being posted over the next few days. Follow signs for Car Park M and you only gain entry if you’re in a Porsche as well as having a pass. This is for car parking only and you need a Goodwood FOS ticket as well.

Disappointing that the Porsche Club aren’t providing any facilities this year….their coffee was a real pick me up.

I’ve also received my email. For everyone’s benefit:

Thank you for registering for Porsche Club Display Parking at the Goodwood Festival of Speed.

The necessary parking passes have now been received from Porsche Cars GB and we will begin posting these out via first class post. Please let us know if you can no longer attend by emailing media@porscheclubgb.com.

The parking pass does NOT constitute as an event ticket. This will need to have been purchased separately.

As a polite reminder, you will only be allowed entry into the display area in a Porsche. No other vehicles will be permitted.

Please follow road signs to 'Car Park M'. This is an open field with no specific space allocation. Gates will be open from 7am onwards, so feel free to arrive at your leisure throughout the morning.

Just back from a full day at the FOS and was the second Porsche in the parking area this morning. No one checking tickets at 6:30 am so could have wandered straight in to the event. The entrance was via car park M and involved a fairly long section down a hill and across a couple of fields to the Porsche area. Exit was much more direct straight up a track.

Plenty of comfy seating on the Porsche stand plus a big screen. Screeching from the 4 yr olds in the adjacent Jags was incredibly annoying.

Important question: how damp is the ground? Do I need my wellies? Thanks.

Had a nice surprise in the post a couple of days ago. As I did not receive a confirmation email first, the parking pass was a real bonus.

Was about the 10th vehicle there around 7am ish.

Signage not great, brown diamond Porsche parking dropped off several turns early. But carried on to M and directed in.

Ground fine. Early rain fizzed out quickly and was warm/hot by the afternoon.

Returned to car covered in Saharan sand. Again. Only just cleaned the bloody thing.

1st World problem!! The FOS car parks are a dust bowl in warm/dry weather & it's an excuse to wash the car again wink

I wished I'd bought one of their hats. Ended up with sunburn, LOL.
