The Goodwood Festival of Speed returns July 9–12, 2026, with the Cartier Style et Luxe Lawn continuing as its design-focused counterpoint to the hillclimb. This year’s concours d’elegance brings together more than 40 vehicles across seven classes, spanning early motoring through late-20th-century performance icons.
Static display and judged on Sunday, the Lawn prioritizes form, craftsmanship and historical context over outright performance.
