Bring Your Pre-1990s Classic to the Concours of Elegance

The coming together of hundreds of wonderfully unique cars is the cornerstone of the Concours of Elegance, celebrating automotive creations with a special history and provenance. A central element of this over the past few years, and once again at Hampton Court Palace this year, is our free pre-1990s car park, presented by Classic & Sports Car Magazine. 

For those of you who own a car manufactured prior to 1990, our pre-1990s car park is available for free across all three days of the Concours of Elegance. Before you even set foot in the pristine gardens of Hampton Court Palace to enjoy the vivid display of concours cars and luxury exhibitors, the pre-1990s car park is a chance to sample some marvellous cars owned by our guests and visitors. 

Access to the pre-1990s car park is free for those with an eligible car, and adds another exciting and exclusive layer to the UK’s premier concours event. You’ll have the opportunity to enjoy a delightful line-up of pre-1990s cars, owned by your peers who share the same passion for their pride and joy.

Once you’ve perused the cars of the pre-1990s car park, it will be time to enjoy the concours cars within the palace grounds. From our Best of British category, which features icons such as the 1925 Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost ‘barrel-sided’ Tourer and contemporary pioneers such as the Gordon Murray T.50, to rarely-seen automotive legends such as the Talbot-Lago 150C SS ‘Teardop’, the Concours of Elegance promises to whet the automotive appetites of guests and visitors across three exhilarating days. 

If you would like to access the pre-1990s car park, but have already bought a ticket, please head to our ticket page and use the code 24CSC, and you will then be able to redeem your free parking under the ‘extras’ section.
