Event main image
Following the success of the 80th Anniversary Hill Climb, the Club returns to the long course for a one-day event. Entries are now open for this event at our spiritual home in the Cotswolds and 140 competing cars will take to the long course. The Orchard is traditionally an attraction in its own right with Pre-war cars filling every available space. Trade stands, auto jumble and entertainment will also be part of the day.

Entries will be selected in line with the Club policy and no entries will be accepted after the closing date detailed below. Please note that all incomplete Entry Forms received will be returned to the sender, and only accepted once they have been returned with the missing information completed.

Advance ticket sales for this event have now closed but will be available to buy on the day priced at £15.00 each.

Under 16s are free.

The Orchard will be reserved exclusively for Pre-war cars on both the Saturday and Sunday (parking in the Orchard on Friday will be on a first-come-first-served basis). All other cars are to park in the nominated event car park adjacent to Pardon Hill Farm.  Members who have purchased advance tickets can park for free by showing their Free Programme Voucher, which will be exchanged on entry to the car park for a Programme.
 
For Members without advance tickets, and Non-Members, car parking will cost £5 – but includes a Programme of the same value.  If returning for a second day, please show your Programme on entry to the car park to avoid being charged again.

Prescott is located approximately 5 miles North-East of Cheltenham, just off the A435 (Evesham Road) between Gotherington and Gretton.

Camping at Prescott
 
Camping will be available in the three fields directly across from the Prescott main site courtesy of Pardon Hill Farm. 
 
The Club has investigated the provision of shower facilities on the campsite and regret that due to the absence of mains water it will not be possible to provide showers without incurring a significant cost, which would result in the doubling of camping fees. 
 
This year we do not intend to apply a single charge per pitch no matter how long you stay.  Instead there will be three ticket types available as follows:
 
 
Ticket
Nights of  Cost
BRONZE Thursday and Friday £20
SILVER Friday and Saturday £20
GOLD Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday £35

Please note that there is no advance booking for Camping* and all payment is upon arrival.
 
*Marshals on duty over the weekend can book and pay for camping in advance through TOPO and will receive a 50% discount if doing so (please book via the Ticket Hotline on 01608 644999, quoting ‘Marshals Camping’.
 
Camping tickets must be on display at all times and failure to do so may result in further charges or removal from the campsite.
 
Please note that the VSCC has a contract with Pardon Hill Farm this year from Thursday 4 August through to Monday 8 August for camping Thursday night to Sunday night.  No camping on Pardon Hill Farm land is permitted outside of these dates and anyone doing so will be committing trespass and will also not be covered by the Club insurance and so may be removed from the area and not permitted access in the future. 
 
We ask that those who wish to camp respect the privacy of the local residents and observe the campsite rules and in particular please do not leave rubbish behind or empty portaloos in the field before departing as this is a working farm with livestock.
