The festival will be home to the DayInsure Wold Rallycross of Great Britain meaning spectators can see first-hand what sets this young sport apart from Formula 1. As rallycross cars accelerate from 0 – 60mph in 1.9 seconds onlookers can expect to see a lot more excitement in a short space – from minor bumps to major pileups.

There will also be radio control car racing, go-karting, the Monster drift show, supercar exhibits and DiRT 2.0 eSports simulators and much more.

Food on both days include the award-winning street food vendors, including Made of Dough, Paelleria, Los Churros Amigos and Le Swine.

The event is offering free tickets to individuals aged 16 and under.
