Silverstone Circuit, Towcester, Northamptonshire.
CarFest (28 to 30 August) is the UK’s largest family fundraising festival, come join us at our new home the Silverstone Circuit!
Packed to the brim with activities and attractions to keep the whole family entertained, CarFest is the place to create amazing memories. As well as the fastest and most breathtaking cars, CarFest promises so much more to keep the whole family entertained! With great live music, an array of celebrity stars adding their sparkle across the site, inspiring wellbeing sessions, famous chefs and cookery demonstrations, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. CarFest is the perfect weekend for families looking to have fun, explore, and create unforgettable moments together.
Created by Chris Evans in 2012, CarFest has raised millions for UK charities. Starlight is delighted to be part of the CarFest family since 2019. We are so grateful to everyone involved and who supports the event and helping to raise over £900,000 for Starlight.
We'll be there in 2026 for the weekend with fun and games for all the family. Take on your family in our Tug of War, challenge yourself on the Lego Walk, and catch a game of giant Jenga. We have this and so much more in the Starlight area, so do come along and say hi!
