About us
Silverstone Museum brings the extensive heritage of Silverstone and British motor racing to life for hundreds of thousands of visitors a year, through a dynamic, interactive and educational visitor experience. Our amazing museum includes a permanent exhibition that takes visitors on an exciting two hour journey through motor racing past, present and future. The exhibition is housed in the only remaining WWII hanger on the site, which has been fully refurbished and re-clad to create a fantastic, authentic backdrop. The latest technology is used to tell the amazing stories of the people that have been part of the site’s history, from medieval monks and WW2 air crew to the racing drivers, riders, engineers and marshals of today. We also house and manage a Collections and Research Centre, offering museum and archive accredited storage for the unique British Racing Drivers’ Club (BRDC) archive and other motor sport collections as well as a specialist library and learning space for school groups. Our aim is to ensure that the heritage of Silverstone and British motor racing is explained and interpreted for today’s public as well as being protected for future generations, celebrating both the circuit and the country’s position at the very heart of the global motor sport industry by explaining their historic and continuing importance to the sport.

Thank you to the supporting businesses, the delegates, and the fantastic speakers - including our CEO Phil Lawrie and board member Dr. Najat Benchiba-Savenius نجاة بن شيبا - for their contributions. Our team of staff and volunteers were so proud to host guided Museum tours around the exhibition, and enjoyed a very successful day! #business #networking #venuehire #sbjbc
