This year's Goodwood Revival was a whirlwind of vintage cars, fabulous fashion, incessant rain showers and bratwurst! From the moment we arrived at the iconic Goodwood Motor Circuit (now somewhat of a boggy quagmire), we knew it was going to be a weekend to remember, with a bit of everything thrown in, including the opportunity to meet with some of our great clients and create some striking social content for them, amidst the soggy madness.

Ah, British weather – always the unexpected guest! As the heavens opened up, the event quickly became a charming mix of slick racing and determined enthusiasts. The weather added an extra layer of thrill to the races, the spray behind each car made for some great photographic opportunities, with drivers skidding around bends and spectators huddled under umbrellas, cheering even louder with every near miss. It was a muddy, marvelous mess that somehow made the day even more memorable.

The fashion at this year’s Goodwood Revival was a riot of retro flair, with every corner bursting with people dressed to the nines – or in most cases, to the 50s! The elegant polka-dot dresses, and sharp suits, and the iconic grease-stained overalls made the event what Goodwood Revival has become known for. And then, of course, there were the cowboys, tipping their Stetsons and twirling invisible lassos, adding a bit of Western swagger to Hampshire. It was a glorious mishmash of style – from glamorous movie stars to rugged mechanics and even a few gunslingers – all rubbing shoulders as if it were the most natural thing in the world. At Goodwood, fashion knows no bounds, and everyone’s here for a good time, whether they’re fixing engines or herding cattle!

This year, Goodwood went full throttle on sustainability, proving that even vintage racing can go green and save polar bears! The 2024 Revival saw every car on the track fueled with at least 70% sustainable juice, ensuring that all the roaring engines were also eco-friendly. It’s all part of Goodwood’s "Revive & Thrive" mission to keep the spirit of historic racing alive without the hefty carbon footprint. Who knew saving the planet could look this cool, with classic cars tearing up the track and not a single drop of guilt in the tank?

It would be amiss of us not to mention the Bratwurst stand. The smell of sizzling bratwurst cut through the damp air like a ray of hope for the damp Hoodpin team. As we munched away, chatting with fellow fans and watching the vintage races, it was clear: sometimes, the best moments come from the simplest pleasures. As always the Goodwood spirit remained undeterred, there was a great atmosphere, and an even greater love for the cars and culture we were there to celebrate.

The 2024 Goodwood Revival was an unforgettable mix of elegance, excitement, and just a little bit of chaos. Between meeting clients, dodging puddles, and devouring bratwurst, we were reminded that this event is about more than just cars – it’s about the joy of celebrating the past with a smile, a laugh, and maybe even a sausage in hand. Here’s to another year of vintage fun – rain or shine!
