Doncaster Racecourse & Exhibition Centre

We’re a family-orientated car show held at Doncaster Racecourse, in the North of England, showing VW Group and retro cars.

We’ve evolved from a small meet of enthusiasts back in 1998 at the Elsecar Heritage Centre (hence the ‘Elsecar’ in our name) to what is now one of the UK’s largest specialist car shows at the fantastic venue of Doncaster Racecourse (the ‘Races’ bit of the name).
The venue has space for over 100 cars in the indoor exhibition centre plus space outside for over 600 additional show cars.

VENUE

2016 opened a new chapter for both our show and Doncaster Racecourse – 10 years since the Racecourse hosted a car show and a massive leap in to the unknown for the Elsecar show.

The prestigious Doncaster Racecourse & Exhibition Centre is regarded as one of the finest sporting venues in Europe and home to the world’s oldest classic horse race – the St Ledger Stakes.

After recently undergoing a £34million redevelopment, with outstanding indoor/outdoor facilities, it is a perfect venue for one of the UK’s longest established specialist car shows.

The indoor exhibition centre has the capacity to hold over 200 display vehicles/traders and space for a further 500+ vehicles in the outdoor display area.

A wide range of places to eat and drink available plus excellent car parking facilities with over 5000 spaces, mean you won’t be scrabbling for a space.

Superbly located near the heart of Doncaster, the stunning Racecourse is a convenient venue for nearby Sheffield and Leeds, with links to the A1, M1, M18 and M62 making it easily accessible to the other areas of the UK and Europe.

HISTORY

‘Elsecar at the Races’, formerly ‘Elsecar Mega Meet’, formally known as ‘Club GTI Mega Meet’ has been running for the last 18 years – making 2023 our 25th birthday!
Over the last 12 years the Mega Meet has grown gathering over 200 show cars and 200 club cars at the old Elsecar venue, to 700+ vehicles at Doncaster Racecourse.

Due to the popularity of the meet we have outgrown the Elsecar Heritage Centre and have had to move to a bigger venue – Exciting!

A new venue comes with a new name and great opportunities to make our little meet into a great show!
However we still want to keep that ‘family feel’ so we hope you will join us in taking the event to the next level.
