Le Mans Classic: what to look forward to in 2025

For motorsport enthusiasts, the Le Mans Classic is already a must-see tribute to racing history. In 2025, however, the event offers even more compelling attractions that make the trip to France even more of a draw.

Le Mans Classic 2025 will be held from 3-6 July, the height of the French summer. It takes place just a few weeks after the 24 Hours of Le Mans, on 14-15 June.

In this blog, we share some of the key things to look forward to at this year’s Le Mans Classic, both on-track and on our three sites.

Historic Racing

Circuit de la Sarthe will once again play host to historic racing at Le Mans Classic in 2025. In a traditional celebration of motorsport heritage, the event will showcase over 700 historic race cars, spanning from the 1930s to the early 2000s, competing in era-based grids. Alongside the main races, the weekend features support events such as Group C Racing, the Porsche Classic Race Le Mans, and Endurance Racing Legends.

A highlight for car collectors and enthusiasts is the ACO Members Parade on Saturday 5 July, where participants can drive their cars on the full 13.6 km Le Mans circuit. The festivities begin on Thursday with exhibitions and paddock access, followed by qualifying and night practice on Friday, and culminating in a packed weekend of racing action.

Outdoor Cinema (Silver site)

At the Motorsport Travel Destinations Silver Site, guests can look forward to a unique and relaxed evening experience with the addition of an outdoor cinema. Nestled within the campsite’s vibrant social atmosphere, the cinema offers the perfect way to unwind after a day trackside. It offers comfortable seating and open-air views, enabling fans to enjoy a motorsport-themed classic at 8pm on Saturday 5 July.

Whether you’re camping, glamping, or staying in the Platinum Pop-up Village, you’re invited to visit the Silver Site and unwind with fellow fans. It’s the perfect way to round off your day – sharing stories, enjoying the atmosphere, and watching a film under the stars in true Le Mans style.

Car Show (Silver site)

Again taking place at the Motorsport Travel Destinations Silver Site, there will be a Car Show on Saturday 5 July at 11am.

An array of classic vehicles from various eras will be on display, offering attendees a unique opportunity to appreciate the rich history of automotive design and engineering. This exhibition will feature a diverse range of vintage cars, from pre-war models to iconic sports cars of the late 20th century, all meticulously maintained by passionate owners and collectors.
