Get your red trousers back from the dry cleaners!

This from The Maserati Club:

2023 SALON PRIVE CONCOURS D’ELEGANCE BLENHEIM PALACE


Join us for a thrilling, supercharged day out at Blenheim Palace for Supercar Saturday on 2nd September. Occupying both the North & South Lawns, it’s the biggest single day of the 4-day event, with the Salon Privé Club Trophy by Lockton central to the day’s activities and a spectacular display of well over 1,500 privately-owned classic, sports, super & hypercars all hoping to walk away with the top prize.

Salon Prive provides a golden opportunity for recent and new Members to meet other Club Members, the new Chairman and other Committee Members, and to learn a bit more about the Club!
The Club will be present with its own section for parking en bloc, which transforms the event into a pleasant social occasion.

Partners will have more choice to make this day out very different from many car based events as the Palace, its grounds and many other attractions provide variety and interest.

Is this a ticket affair ?

Just to be a tad more helpful (and less sarcastic) it looks like the Saturday is 'from' £50, but there is also a deal for Maserati Club members (or maybe just anyone with a Maserati) that looks as if it is free, but is probably really £45.

Shame. I would have been up for that, but I'm in Portugal. The following Saturday is the 20th anniversary of the QPV launch ...just saying

Thinking about going to this, kids would love it. Just looked at booking tickets and you can buy for Maserati Club, but nowhere does it ask for proof of membership. Do I need to join to go? Anyone been before?

If you go to the bottom of the club list the supercar paddock one is generic / no club entries. Not booked yet but will probably be going.

Thanks for the tip, I’ll probably do that one. My sons would probably prefer to park with a load of different cars anyway :thumb3:

Last time I went (a few years ago) I don't think the paddock tickets were marque-specific. You just drive in and if you have a paddock ticket of any kind they direct you to where cars like yours are, but you could try to join another marque's area or just park with the public, maybe. I remember arrival being VERY slow, even though we were quite early. (Probably because each car was being told where to go one-by-one, come to think of it.)

The marque areas are quite close to each other as I recall, so easy to look round them all.

Thanks, we’re you a member of the Maserati Owners Club, or did you just get that for registering your car as a Maserati?

They tend to have the clubs together and then the rest park as you arrive. This was a couple of years ago, then last year we were in the more normal ‘grid’ parking, again as you come. Although I do remember the non-club ticket confusing a few stewards.03D63A56-8971-4A8D-82D4-B6F7B9EE3DAA.jpeg

Booked a Maserati ticket, hopefully the weather will turn in a few of weeks.

Currently staring out across our holiday home balcony at the beautiful Fowey Estuary, it’d look more beautiful with blue skies and less rain and mist!
