Salon Privé, the UK’s most prestigious automotive and lifestyle event, is celebrating its 20th anniversary this summer at Blenheim Palace (27–31 August) — and demand has never been higher.
Organisers have confirmed that Saturday 30 August, featuring Supercar Saturday and the Salon Privé Club Trophy, has now completely sold out with 8,000 guests expected, the earliest sell-out in the show’s history.
Andrew Bagley, Chairman and Co-Founder, said: “Ticket sales are up almost 30% on last year for the whole event — we’re staggered as we’ve never sold out so early before.
Now that Saturday has gone, and with Richard Hammond judging the Concours de Vente on Supercar Sunday, we’re expecting Sunday tickets to go like hot cakes too!”
In total, around 17,000 visitors are anticipated over the weekend alone, with 27,000 expected across the full five-day event.
This year also introduces new highlights, including the launch of the palatial Salon Privé Automotive Gallery and the debut of the Supercar Lifestyle Club Day on Sunday.

Richard Hammond, famed from Top Gear, will judge the Concours de Vente — a display of classic cars entered by leading UK restorers and specialists, all available to buy.
The week begins on Wednesday 27 August with the prestigious Concours by Aviva Private Clients, showcasing over 60 rare and exceptional cars, half from international entries.
Thursday continues with the Concours parade and awards, while Friday 29 August brings Ladies’ Day by Boodles, with high fashion, supercar showcases, and the Boodles’ Best Hat Competition.
Saturday focuses on over 1,500 privately owned sports, super, and hypercars competing for the coveted Salon Privé Club Trophy, including the largest-ever UK display of 32 De Tomaso models.
Finally, Sunday rounds off the celebrations with supercar and lifestyle clubs, Richard Hammond’s judging, and displays from SCC Supercars and his workshop, The Smallest Cog.
Tickets range from £55 for general entry to £645 for full hospitality. With sell-outs already confirmed, organisers urge enthusiasts to secure remaining tickets quickly.
