You really need to do Lotus.
And Mercedes Benz world ought to be your spiritual home. That’s a great venue with loads of parking and proper catering on site.
Better than Lotus is the Lotus heritage workshop that is on the road leading to the main site. It's like a working museum.

MB World is great and is next door to Brooklands.

Pro drive would be amazing again if they’d have us back, xtrac gearboxes would be cool to look around. BMW UK whilst done to death no doubt it’s great as a winter weather location.
Xtrac would be great, it's near to me and I've always wanted to look around there

RAF cosford was good years ago, sure it was a ph ss but I might be wrong.

A seaside resort where we can all park on the front and get fish and chips. I understand this wouldn’t be a breakfast meet though. Lots of good suggestions made already.

RAF Cosford would be a good shout! I think it was the Midlands Breakfast Club (or something like that) that used to organise meets there.

Passion For Power Tatton Park (August). Free to car clubs usually
Ginetta Factory: Biased I know, but was one of the best factory visits I've been on with PH. Virtually nothing was off limits
A link up with Mission Motorsport at Abingdon or Thruxton
Williams museum/visitors centre though I don't feel they do many freebies
Something with British GT as they're trying to raise their profile, an in circuit display/deal.

plus many of the others listed above.

Have you asked Goodwood if they will let you run an event there?

JCB is a good shout!

I enjoyed the British GT PHSS at Silverstone in 2017 - my son's first visit to a race track.

I see Collecting Cars are organising a coffee meet at Donington Park, so that could be a potential venue for a PH meet too?

There was meant to be one a few years back...

Collecting Cars had a meet at the Triumph factory in Hinckley last weekend too. I'm not a biker, but it would still be an interesting place to visit.
