Grand Prix Cafe in North West Leicestershire

Wonderful staff, they’re Always so helpful. Went to see the motorbikes it was a wonderful experience. Would definitely go again. Even though it was busy it wasn’t to chaotic and you still got a great veiw so it didn’t ruin the day with it being crowded.

Visited for Download Festival. Fantastic venue. Special place.

Lovely venue only come for the British superbikes, lovely track and great views

Excellent circuit with brilliant viewing & great facilities

I went with my son to watch the classic cars racing, very relaxed approach round the pits and all of the teams were very friendly and inviting. Well worth a visit.

Great experience for the BTCC race weekend in April. Good views from everywhere and you can get up close to the pit garages. Good facilities on site and staff very friendly. Could do with more food choice, but a good day out for families too

A great circuit, has good facilities and they serve decent food and drinks. The circuit itself has a lot of good views and stands overlooking the track. We were at The Melbourne Hairpin and had a good view of the race and the chaos that ensued. Those with sensitive hearing might want to bring earplugs or ear defenders.

Attended this year’s Historic Festival and this was by far the best to date. Excellent racing, superb facilities and glorious atmosphere.

Always good , Historic Festival is brilliant.

Spectacular, a stunning track, perfect for my first track school day with the outstanding California Superbike School. I'll be back as soon as possible.

Lovely place for a productive shift

Very nice and quiet location.near to East Midland airport

It was amazing day watching the classic cars racing.

What a superb track. We went for the touring cars and parked in starkeys car park Saturday. No wait at all to get in and plenty of marshalls. There was plenty of toilets around the track, lots of food and drink stalls and some great merchandise stalls. The food was really nice and what you would expect to pay for an event. The Sunday session was a lot busier but we didn't queue to get in and there was plenty of places around the track the sit and watch the racing. Leaving the track afterwards was very busy and congested in the main car park. I would advise hanging back for an hour to let the caos die down.

Re-vamped Historic Festival, so nice new touches.

Here for the Btcc easy parking, great viewing, got to see the cars up close in the pits, great day out.

Wonderful place, great staff and organisation. Plenty of toilets, all clean even late on in the day. The cafe onsite is great, plenty of choice and reasonably priced. The catering vans around the site are expensive. Lots of great viewing areas. The paddock is always interesting to wander around.

Great track day thank you very much

Great day of classic car racing

Fantastic circuit, great spectator options and reasonable grandstand ticket prices. Plenty of different events throughout the year, no issues with access and parking.

A Thrilling Day at Donington Park! Donington Park Circuit is an absolute gem for motorsport fans and adrenaline seekers alike. The track layout is fast, flowing, and offers plenty of exciting vantage points for spectators. Whether you’re there for a major race event like British Superbikes or a classic car weekend, the atmosphere is always electric. Facilities are well-maintained, with clean restrooms, a decent selection of food vendors, and helpful staff throughout. The paddock area gives great access to the teams and vehicles, adding a personal touch to the experience. Parking is usually straightforward and well-organized, even on busier event days. What really stands out is the mix of heritage and modern racing — you can feel the history of the place while enjoying top-level motorsport. It’s a must-visit for any racing enthusiast. I’ll definitely be returning!

Fantastic trackday experience here!

Great day out and parking on Starkey's pits you in a great spot to view either trackside or in your car when it's a bit chilly!

Great venue, nice weather and motorcycles!

Superb day's motor racing, with plenty of exotic historic cars both on the track and in the pit lanes. Nice warm cafe (to get out of the very cold wind) had a good selection of snacks, meals, and drinks. An excellent day out.

Beautiful track with great views of the track all round. Good facilities open on general track days

The Donington Historic festival is a brilliant weekend of classic racing. Thoroughly recommended. The circuit is well presented and access to the paddock area at this event is unrestricted giving everyone a chance to view these heritage racing machines up close and personal. What a great event.

Excellent venue. Met some of the drivers. Could access a lot of places whilst in there. Grid walk just brilliant. Highly recommend.

What a fabulous track. Great facilities and terrific staff. Lovely weekend spent competing in the Historic Festival.

Great place. Dropped on with the weather .. the btcc day had some good races on

Fantastic place to watch motor racing. You get great views of the track from everywhere you go.

Great day historic racing event

A brilliant friendly motor racing circuit, all facilities available and good viewing of circuit.

Attended the Donnington Classic, a fantastic circuit so well maintained, got a superb cooked breakfast and coffee for £10.50. The racing was constant throughout the day, the pits all accessible to view the cars. There were lots of in field food and drink stalls and a good display of cars from numerous car clubs. Have to say that after 20 years of attending the Goodwood meetings, this was far better with more racing taking place and entrance fee a fraction of the cost compared to Goodwood. Sorry Lord March you have got to greedy and far to expensive, Donnington all the way 👍

Nice relaxing spectating from the Starkey's parking, well worth the extra £5 Shame there were no catering vans open outside of the main paddock.

Enjoyable well planned and safe track to visit

Bloody love this place. Track day with MSV. If you could camp in the garages I’d come more often.

It was great everything was in open space and easy to get too

Great weekend of classic car racing at an amazing circuit. Camping with some great mates highly recommended

Great circuit, not many that are not flat, so v interesting and great viewing! Easy route in and out and we'll sorted traffic management so no queues!

Fantastic racing circuit and plenty of good places to stand or sit. The spectator areas are kept in excellent condition and the car parking is well managed. You will get your steps in, as there's a fair amount of walking involved getting around the circuit.

I went to the Superbike factory to look at a new motorbike. Great place, staff are very friendly and helpful. And there is a lovely cafe here too

Incredible place, worth the visit

One of the UK's best race circuits - Cramer Curves is a classic!

Best place ever love it there.facilities are brilliant.

Back to Donington for the second time in two weeks. The first was driving a Mk2 MX5, the most recent, having a passenger ride in a GT4 McLaren 570S - quite the contrast! What remained the same was a fantastic circuit, with great staff and superb facilities. Race tracks are little communities in their own right - full of hustle, bustle and interest. Since MSV have taken over the running of Donington, it has continued to improve. If you have never been, you should go. Whether it's as a spectator, where there are many brilliant vantage points, through to being on track yourself either in your own car or sharing one on a track day event. *Update* On Sunday, we attended the opening rounds of the 2025 BTCC Championship. They are always large-scale events with lots of spectators. Arriving at 7:50am, we had no queuing for the car park. More impressively was the system implemented for 6pm when everyone headed for home. Melbourne Road was one-way (from the main entrance) and temporary traffic lights were installed at its end, .aking right turns easier and safer. Thank you to all of the Donington staff for making the day run so smoothly.

Hold tight if you're camping... This is a great circuit with fantastic viewing area, I've been many times and BTCC always has great racing. However, this time I decided to go for the weekend and camp. Well, never again. Roughly 400 pitches served by 11 toilet cubicles and 12 showers - not enough and absolutely disgusting by Sunday 8am. On top of this the camping cost is considerably more than other circuits. Donington should take a lesson from Snatterton & Goodwood both considerably better. I shall be at Thruxton next, hopefully they'll be better 🙏 My final comment to Donington is, why haven't they built facilities in the camping area similar to those around the circuit? And, send some staff to live there for a race weekend to see for themselves how utterly disgusting it is!

Great views for spectators but the worst out of all the race circuits to get out of if you're driving

Cracking day, cracking track. Hooked on it

One of the best circuits in Britain for spectators can see so much of the circuit just from 1 corner

Great day watching the racing and brilliant accessibility options for disabled viewers!

Great day out watching BTCC from 8:30 to 6:30. But an absolute nightmare getting out of the Circuit. Needs some proper Marshalls on site before someone is seriously injured or worse.

Great days racing, great weather all in all another good visit to Donnington park

Great location, lots of facilities, plenty of food and drinks beverages, fantastic race track with lots of viewing areas. Easy access off the motorway

One of my favourite circuits, some nice improvements since being taken over by MSV, but be warned, it's come with a high cost! Prices for somethings have doubled.

Came for the Kwik Fit BTCC was a great day out great atmosphere staff for the VIP hospitality were efficient and attentive and couldn’t do enough for you

Great BTCC racing at donnington park

Great track for testing experience

Great track. Saw some bike testing and has some great food at superbike factory

Had fabulous day Not been for a few years Very impressed with the much improved facilities Stand at redgate is a fantastic place to view almost all of the circuit Another great day out Going back tomorrow for btcc race day Circuit looks great Facilities excellent

One of the best circuits in the country for track days

Donnington Park is easy to find and easy to access.

Well worth a visit, even if you're not into Motorsport.

Very well kept. Clean tidy and great view of the track

Excellent circuit, fast and entertaining Decent food there too

Can't beat watching anything race down craner curves! New tarmac laid in November seems to be working well. Parking available overlooking Old Hairpin for some events.

Good circuit, well run track days.

Best MSV track in the UK. Great facilities, food is expensive though and traffic in and out can be an issue owing to the location. Wouldn't put me off though, circuit layout is great and makes for great racing.

I always love a visit to Donny. Definitely bring your own food as their prices are extortionate!

I took my car to a track day and had an incredible experience. The staff were fantastic—friendly, knowledgeable, and well-organised. The systems they have in place make everything run smoothly, and the entire setup is ideal for any petrolhead. There’s a real sense of community too, which adds to the atmosphere. If you’re planning to go, bring spare tyres—you’ll definitely go through them with all the drifting!

Brilliant day watching the racing, excellent clean venue, great restaurant, my 12 year old petrol head daughter wants to go every week!

great testing circuit, loads off on site facilities and reasonable priced not a ripoff like silverstone

It's a great track, the paddock is active, and you can get to the infield for free unlike some tracks, great food, with quick service

Always good to visit Donington. Great racing in the British GTs, looking forward to coming back in a couple of weeks.

Amazing track for close up racing lots of parking available food and drink was plentiful toilets and facilities were excellent jumbo jets landing over the circuit was phenomenal close up racing of the GT3s was exceptional

Great day out especially for motoring enthusiasts!!! 2025 update: still has its shine! Not only great for automobile enthusiasts. They also held a nicely organised and fun sports event for all ages - the Inflatable 5K Obstacle Run. Great fun for everyone and a nice day out for families!

Amazing day out with the kids watching the evening session . Very nice environment

Great day out at classic car race

Impressive facilities, plentiful and clean toilets, food was good and an an acceptable price

Great venue with plenty of facilities (toilets and food/drink) around the track for spectators

Great place to watch motorsport we were at a National Rally for club drivers the only complaint is the entry fees are expensive

Great day for the British GT in early April. Toilets, restaurant and merchandise stores are all at a high standard at Donington. And great views around the circuit allow you to view cars for several consecutive corners.

Fantastic day. Track surface was superb. Marshall did a brilliant job keeping track clear. Garage facilities were perfect.

Fantastic venue, plenty of viewing areas, really good track

Proper old school circuit. Great vantage points and can see almost half the track if you pick the right spot. Pick a sunny day and its glorious.

Good day out for the price, free roam of the track for spectating. The gift shop doesn't stay open till the end of racing so buy anything before 5:30 and don't wait till the end like I did. No opening times displayed 🤦🏻

Last year my son and I visited this place and I know from the beginning I must come back. If you race lover, if motor sport is your thing is the right place to be.I had opportunity to talk to drivers and mechanics I touched cars, bolide, I even datin racing car and receive full explanation how to operate some of instruments. I watched the competitions and decorations. I took plenty of pictures. Now I already bought tickets to visit once again. Highly recommend.

A brilliant experience, a great track, professional staff, outstanding facilities. Looking forward to our next visit already!!

Always love going to Donington Park. Great day out watching racing. Facilities much improved over the years, but shame that the food stalls are not open for the smaller (less advertised) events

I was on a @RED driving course to become a driving instructor as their learning centre is at Donnington Park. Unfortunately, I did not see any other part of what looks like a great race circuit.

Nice circuit for testing Ginetta Junior with RRacing.

Nice track but viewing can be obscured by the 5 meter safety fence.

Visited for the Tegiwa Dukeries Rally. Plenty of parking, good clean toilet facilities easy access all around the track.

Everything you'd expect from an MSV circuit. Well kept and run. Attended to compete in a rally so stayed overnight. No food or bar available after 1700 on a Saturday night. Why agree to camping if you don't intend to feed people staying?

Great spot for motorsport fans, friendly place, good food at great prices, not a rip off like other circuits..very good value for money..

Great Day out, Well organised. Spotless facilities.

My favourite track.Lot of changes for better every year.

Awesome venue, great facilities. Love doing track days here!

Great track with loads of good viewing areas

Friendly staff, just went in for a look around.
