The Lydden Legend Festival returns on June 13–14, 2026, following the incredible success of last year’s inaugural UK edition. Its sister event, the iconic Loheac Legend Festival in France, celebrated its second edition in May with an even bigger tribute to the golden eras of rallycross and rally and now it’s Lydden’s turn to raise the bar once again!
The 2026 Lydden Legend Festival promises an even more spectacular celebration of motorsport heritage. Fans can look forward to thrilling on-track demonstrations from the worlds of rallycross and rallying, alongside an expanded collection of retro and legendary machines on static display in the paddock. It’s a rare chance to get up close to some of the most iconic cars ever to grace gravel and tarmac.
This year’s edition will showcase an even larger roster of star drivers and historic cars, with special anniversary celebrations and curated line-ups featuring standout machinery from across multiple eras and disciplines.
Highlights from the 2024 festival included the first dedicated Group B rallycross races in decades, featuring drivers such as Francois Delecour piloting a Ford RS200, plus former champions reunited with their title-winning 90s Supercars. The rally stage hosted a beautifully varied range of rally machines from across the decades, creating an unforgettable showcase of speed, sound, and nostalgia.
Building on that success, the 2026 festival will once again feature Autograph Sessions and Live Interviews throughout the weekend, giving fans the chance to meet their heroes and hear the stories behind the legends.
Join them for two unforgettable days celebrating the machines, the history, and the magic of rallycross and rally at their finest.
