COVID-19 UPDATE

Updated 24/06/2021 -

For the attention of everyone who has booked to camp at Silverstone Woodlands for the Formula 1 Pirelli British Grand Prix this year:

Following last weeks’ announcement from the Prime Minister and Silverstone’s announcement that the British Grand Prix has been granted Pilot Event Status, we have been working behind the scenes to clarify how this affects us all at Woodlands.

We can now confirm that Woodlands will be opening to accommodate campers this year but, despite lengthy discussions with Silverstone, it has not been possible to include us within the boundary for the Pilot Event. We will therefore be providing camping in line with the latest Government COVID guidance, meaning we can host you all but we are not permitted to provide our usual large-scale live entertainment, as we’ve been advised this would classify us as an ‘outdoor event’, rather than just a ‘campsite’.

All is not lost - we will still have large, seated areas with all the great food and bars you’ve been used to. Our big tops and structures are already booked & paid for and will be used as large, covered spaces. The campsite shops will also be open.

We recognise how close the whole event has come to being cancelled for fans again this year and we have done everything we can just to be able to open in this way. We would like to thank Silverstone, our local authorities and MPs for their tireless work to make it possible for fans to attend this years’ race and, whilst this year will certainly be different, we are grateful and glad to be able to open at all, especially at such short notice.

We will be contacting all bookers with detailed arrival instructions. Please read these instructions carefully to help us process you as quickly as possible when you arrive.

We understand that, as a result of these changes, some of you may not feel comfortable attending the event this year. If this is the case don’t worry, we will be in touch shortly with details on how to claim a refund. We would like to ask that you please bear with us at this incredibly busy time and only contact us where absolutely necessary.

We can’t wait to see you on-site this year and are already looking forward to Woodlands being back with a bang in 2022.

Much love,

Team Woodlands x
