The Silverstone Museum is an immersive visitor attraction that celebrates the past, present and future of Silverstone and British motor racing. Over 60 hands-on exhibits give you the opportunity to try a variety of activities, from operating a wind tunnel and taking part in a pit stop to climbing into a replica Grand Prix car. As you move through the displays, interactive elements bring technical and historic aspects of the sport to life.
Alongside the hands-on fun, the museum shows some of the most iconic cars and bikes from Silverstone’s 70-year history. You’ll see Mansell’s famous “Red 5”, an E.R.A from the first ever Grand Prix and Barry Sheene’s 1979 Suzuki motorbike among other important machines. A thrilling immersive film show, the ultimate lap of Silverstone, brings together many of the circuit’s most famous racing moments and provides a dramatic way to round off your visit.
