PistonHeads: On The Beach

Get ready for an all-new PistonHeads event for 2026! On The Beach is the official warm-up to the PistonHeads Annual Service. Expect a spectacular lineup that showcases exactly what PistonHeads is all about - featuring everything from classic, modified, and performance cars to jaw-dropping supercars. We’ll also be joined by exhibitors from the upcoming 2026 PistonHeads Annual Service.

• Display Car Tickets: If you wish to park and display your vehicle at the event, you must have a Display Car ticket (£10.00+ eventbrite fees).
• Spectators: The event is free to attend on foot and open to the public! Passengers arriving in a ticketed display car also do not require their own ticket.
• Public Parking: A road closure will be in effect throughout the morning. On-site parking is strictly reserved for ticketed display vehicles only. If you are arriving by car to spectate but do not have a Display Car ticket, please use local public parking.

If you have a ticket to display your car, please read the following carefully to ensure a smooth arrival:

• Valid Ticket Required: You must have your Display Car ticket (either printed or ready on the Eventbrite app) with your vehicle. Our security team will scan all tickets upon entry. If you do not have a ticket, you will be turned away.
• Arrival Times: Please do not arrive before 08:45. Early arrivals will be asked to wait until the official opening time, but once gates open, we will process cars as quickly as possible.
• Event Timings: We strongly advise that all display cars remain in place from 09:30 to 11:30. Please check the full agenda for specific schedule details.
• Traffic Flow: A strict one-way system will be in place throughout the morning to keep things moving safely. Entry will be at the start of Madeira Drive, next to the Pier and Sea Life Cente.
• Road Closure Enforcement: Please be aware that a tow truck will be actively in use to remove any non-ticketed vehicles parked within the road closure area.
