BREACH OF THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS MAY RESULT IN ALL TICKETS PURCHASED BY THE TICKET PURCHASER OR HELD BY A TICKET HOLDER BEING CANCELLED WITHOUT REFUND, ENTRY TO THE VENUE BEING REFUSED AND/OR EJECTION FROM THE VENUE (IF ENTRY HAS ALREADY BEEN GRANTED); ANY SUCH ACTION SHALL BE AT SCL’S SOLE DISCRETION.
The Event is promoted by SCL and the motor racing element is organised by British Grand Prix Limited, part of Motorsport UK.
The ticket is purchased for the Event. If the Event does not fully take place the Ticket Purchaser may be entitled to a full or partial refund. SCL’s refund policy can be found here. SCL will not issue refunds in any other circumstances. You may, at time of purchase, choose to take out ‘missed event cover’ entitling you to repayment of your purchase amount from our third-party partner in certain circumstances. Due to the nature of the Event, there is no right to cancel any ticket purchased for the Event under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 or otherwise.
Tickets are not transferable to other events and are strictly not to be offered for resale except via the official Silverstone ticket resale platform (if any). Tickets must be purchased from SCL or an official authorised ticket agency. No ticket for the Event shall be sold or offered for sale for any form of fee or reward or used in promotions (except through the official Silverstone ticket resale platform, if any) without the prior written consent of SCL and Formula One World Championship (FOWC) first being obtained and without complying with these terms and conditions in all respects. Tickets must only be used for personal or private use. No ticket for the Event shall be used by any person for advertising, promotional or commercial purposes including without limitation, prizes, competitions, contests or sweepstakes without the prior written consent of SCL and FOWC first being obtained.
If a ticket is purchased from an unauthorised seller, resold or transferred for profit or for commercial benefit or gain (including as part of a promotion or prize) or as part of any hospitality package or similar arrangement by anyone without SCL and FOWC’s authority, it is at the purchaser’s sole risk. The ticket will become void and the Ticket Holder may be refused entry to, or ejected from, the Event and/or the Venue. The Ticket Holder will not be entitled to any refund and no compensation will be obtained for a voided ticket. Ticket Holders agree to fully compensate SCL and FOWC, and each of their affiliates, for all costs and expenses (including reasonable legal expenses) incurred as a direct result of all and any claims howsoever arising from any third parties as a result of the contravention of this condition.
Tickets will be issued electronically via a digital app (as Mobile Tickets), with a secure barcode bespoke for each ticket. Please ensure each individual seeking to enter the Venue has suitable access to the app before attempting to enter the Venue. Paper-copy tickets or PDFs/E-tickets will not be issued by SCL. Any attempt to present any ticket other than authorised Mobile Tickets issued by SCL will lead to refusal of admission and possible prosecution. Unauthorised vendors will be prosecuted.
If booking more than one ticket, the Ticket Purchaser is entitled to send ticket(s) that they have purchased to other individuals (Guests) but at least one ticket must be retained for use by the Ticket Purchaser. Our system will prevent all tickets being transferred. A SINGLE TICKET CAN ONLY BE TRANSFERRED A MAXIMUM OF 2 TIMES. Once a Guest is transferred a ticket, the Guest shall be a Ticket Holder for the purposes of these terms and conditions. SCL restricts the transfer of tickets for reasons including: (i) Event security; (ii) consumer protection; (iii) avoidance of counterfeit tickets; and (iv) protection of a fair pricing scheme.
SCL may, but has no obligation to, permit a Ticket Purchaser to submit purchased tickets for resale on an official Silverstone ticket resale platform operated by SCL, subject to any resale terms determined by SCL (which may include a resale transaction fee). If SCL launches an official Silverstone ticket resale platform, SCL will provide information about the resale process, platform and applicable terms on the SCL ticketing website. SCL will determine in its sole discretion when a ticket submitted to the resale platform by an original ticket purchaser is ultimately accepted for potential resale. No tickets are permitted to be resold by any other means other than the official Silverstone resale. If a ticket purchaser’s tickets are found to be sold via unauthorised 3rd party sites. All the ticket purchaser’s tickets will be cancelled. Only the Ticket Purchaser will be permitted to resell tickets on such a resale platform. Ticket Purchasers who have purchased 4-day and 3-day tickets are not permitted to split up their tickets to enable the resale of individual days. To be eligible for resale all associated days of 4-day and 3-day tickets must be submitted by the Ticket Purchaser to be listed for resale. SCL has the right to refuse to list any ticket for resale and makes no guarantee that any ticket submitted to be listed on the resale platform will be successfully resold. If a ticket listed for resale is not successfully resold within the resale window, the ticket will be returned to the ticket purchaser. As of September 2024, SCL do not have a ticket resale platform for 2025 and, if no such ticket resale platform is launched, tickets are not permitted to be resold.
SCL reserves the right to alter seat allocations (if any) without prior notice. If this is necessary for any reason, SCL will reimburse any reduction in value between the original and altered seat allocation. Tickets that include a roving grandstand seat for the Friday and/or Saturday of the Event do not guarantee access to any particular grandstand or seat allocation and are subject to seat availability. Seats are only reserved and allocated for the Sunday of the Event, unless stated otherwise on the product purchased.
Ticket Holders may be restricted from entering areas within the Venue (including but not limited to the concert and entertainment areas in which advertised music and entertainment artists are performing) due to capacity limits being reached or for other operational, security or safety reasons.

Each child ticket must have the identical status to that of the ticket presented by the accompanying adult. Every person wishing to attend the Event, irrespective of their age, requires their own ticket; where these terms and conditions impose an obligation on a Ticket Holder, where the holder of the ticket is a child, the obligation is imposed on the accompanying adult and the accompanying adult acts and contracts on behalf of all children they bring to the Venue.
An individual or organisation is not permitted to purchase in excess of ten (10) admission tickets for the Event. SCL reserves the right to cancel any and all tickets where it is deemed that an individual or organisation has attempted to purchase in excess of six (6) admission tickets. A Ticket Holder must be able to demonstrate, to the satisfaction of SCL, that they are validly entitled to use the respective ticket (for example, by suitably verifying their identity). If the Ticket Holder is not able to demonstrate their entitlement to use a ticket, they may be refused entry and the ticket may be cancelled.
Any admission tickets purchased during a priority window, in which a Ticket Purchaser has gained early access to purchase tickets through first purchasing a qualifying product (i.e. camping and glamping), are not authorised to cancel or refund the qualifying product and retain just the admission tickets alone. Any tickets purchased early those use of a priority window must always retain the qualifying product for the tickets to be valid for use. Any failure to do so will render the purchased admission tickets void.
