Oulton Park

Loosely following the route of the former estate’s access roads, the circuit follows the natural contours of the Cheshire countryside as a superb natural driving and riding challenge.

The Gold Cup remains a well-attended highlight of the north west’s motoring calendar, running today as a historic meeting in homage to those earlier events. The circuit regularly attracts big crowds for Britain’s major championships on two and four wheels too, with fixtures on both the British Superbike Championship and British Touring Car Championship calendars.

The British GT Championship’s traditional Easter Weekend season opener is another annual highlight, and the circuit has even hosted the World Rally Championship and British Rally Championship in recent years, in addition to the Neil Howard Stage Rally and Fireworks spectacular, which takes place each November. On top of all that, there is a busy calendar of club and historic events each season, with racing on most Saturdays through the summer.
