Hi Guys,

I have been trying to get hold of a Hospitality ticket for the above event, I have tried various Ferrari dealerships but without success. Do any of you have any suggestions where I might be able to pick up a hospitality ticket for the event, anyone with friends in high places.

Thanks,

Chris

They still have tickets available on the day. Get there before 9am and queue early at the ticket booth.

How busy is this event expected to be? I'm looking to go Sunday but was just going to pay on the gate.

I'd like to go to this but I have no interest in seeing 100 rosso 458s ,I want to see old ,like first 15 years of Ferrari production

and 1 250 GT SWB isn't sufficient for that.

I should've gone to Goodwood FoS as I spotted on the tv highlights the small field of very rare and old stuff.

10k tickets sold apparently, not sure if they're available on the gate

What were queues like this morning? I was going to go today but after seeing this thread last night I wasn't sure of the situation so maybe tomorrow I'll go. If you don't have a ticket and want to pay on the day, do you have to park up and go and stand in a queue for ages or just drive through and pay on the gate as you pass through?

Parking is on the outside of the gate so I'd suspect park up, buy ticket then walk in.

Shame you're not nearer as I've spare tickets here in Newbury

I arrived at 8:20am this morning and there was no queue at all.
Can’t comment for after that though.

Well that was a blast! The noise was biblical, the cars beautiful, the Challenge races lively and the atmosphere excellent.

+1000 on that F1 sound, simply awesome.

I think everyone appeared to be rolling a tyre around. Pirelli probably went home with an empty truck!
