This year, Porsche celebrates the 75th anniversary of its first car arriving in Great Britain. To mark this milestone, Porsche Cars GB is planning a series of special landmark events with the highlight being Icons of Porsche, Sunstede Silverstone Edition – a two-day festival dedicated to Porsche – hosted at Silverstone on 20/21 June.
It is seventy-five years since the first Porsche arrived in the UK and, in a banner year for the brand, Porsche Motorsport is also celebrating its own 75th anniversary, while the Porsche Club GB is marking 65 years since it was founded.
What could be a better way to celebrate these anniversaries than a special party? On 20/21 June at Silverstone, Porsche Cars GB will be welcoming owners, fans, enthusiasts and their families to Icons of Porsche, Sunstede Silverstone Edition.
Over a weekend of action around the Porsche Experience Centre and the renowned Grand Prix circuit, we will be sharing our success and celebrating the stories from customers and fans that have helped grow and develop the Porsche passion in this country from the grass roots right up to the global stage. We are encouraging owners to bring along their special cars and show them with pride, as well as share their personal history with Porsche.
Supporting this will be a programme of dynamic, on-track demonstrations and themed displays featuring highlight race and road cars that will tell the story of Porsche in motorsport, as well as many of the personalities who have contributed to the Porsche story both at home and abroad.
