Bicester Heritage is primed to welcome its flagship flywheel event back to its storied site.

June 17 and 18 will bring two jam-packed days of action celebrating all things wings, wheels and motion – a suitable tribute for the former WW2 RAF bomber base’s ten-year anniversary celebrations.

With a total of 20,000 tickets set to be released for the two-day extravaganza, 10,000 members of the public will be welcomed to the Bicester Heritage site each day.

Adult tickets will be priced at £27 per ticket, with entry for children up to the age of 15 priced at £7.50.

A true feast for historic car enthusiasts’ senses, flywheel will see a host of classic motoring marques join the displays along the tree-lined avenues of the historic site.

Fans of vintage flight can expect an equally spectacular showcase, with a broad range of historic aircraft set to grace the site’s grass airfield – winding back the years and commemorating the site’s heritage as an RAF Blenheim Bomber training station.

Daniel Geoghegan, CEO, Bicester Motion comments: “This year is a particularly special one for us here at Bicester Heritage, and the return of flywheel is a fitting tribute to celebrate the story of our unique site.

“We hope to welcome attendees of all ages to join us for what will be a spectacular event, a tribute to the hard work of our specialist community and all those who have supported our drive here at Bicester since day one.”
