The project to create an educational centre for British motorsport began in 2012 with the charitable mission of bringing to the public a museum for the exhibition and preservation of artefacts, archives and collections of educational and historic value. All those involved in achieving this mission were delighted to see the Silverstone Interactive Museum open its doors in 2019. The excitement starts to build as you prepare for Silverstone Museum with entry into our thrilling pre-show.

Walk into the tunnel to take your place on our virtual grid and prepare to travel back through Silverstone’s past as you kick off your visit in the most exciting way. Rub shoulders with racing drivers and mechanics from throughout the years as they prepare their cars to race around you. Hear the roar of the engines as the lights go out and the race begins, then start your journey into the heart of motor racing. The Silverstone Museum Café is open daily 10am to 4pm.
