How to Experience the Magic of Maserati’s 100-Year Racing Legacy at Goodwood Revival 2026

The Goodwood Revival (18-20 September) will shine a spotlight on one of Italy’s most evocative marques. In 2026, the event celebrates 100 years since Maserati claimed its first major success at the Targa Florio – a victory that set the tone for decades of daring competition. Notably, Goodwood Revival is renowned for its dedication to historic racing.

As ever, the Revival blends theatre with horsepower. Yet this year, the Trident takes centre stage at Goodwood Revival.

From Sicily to Sussex: Where It All Began

A Maserati 8CTF is driven by Carlo Felice Trossi during the Coppa Ciano at Livomo, August 1938.

In 1926, Alfieri Maserati drove the Tipo 26 to a class win at the Targa Florio. That result marked Maserati’s arrival on the international stage. Moreover, it launched a racing story filled with brilliance, boldness and resilience.

Over the following decades, Maserati built a reputation for elegant engineering and fearless ambition. The brand competed across Grand Prix racing, sports cars and endurance events. Wins came. So did setbacks. However, the pursuit of performance never wavered.

A Grid Worth Travelling For

Goodwood plans to gather more than 50 pre-1966 Maseratis across the weekend. That alone would be headline news. Yet the scale of this tribute promises something even more special at Goodwood Revival.

Highlights are set to include:

  • A remarkable line-up of Maserati 250F single-seaters
  • Sports-racing icons such as the 150S, 200Si and 300S
  • The thunderous 450S
  • Early competition machinery including the 4CL and A6GCS
  • Rarer curiosities like the Tipo 63 and V8RI

Consequently, spectators can trace Maserati’s evolution in metal, from delicate pre-war racers to muscular 1950s contenders.

The celebration extends beyond the circuit. Organisers will transform paddocks to echo post-war Sicily. Expect warm colours, period details and a nod to mid-century Italian style. Additionally, Goodwood Revival promises a feast for the senses.

Therefore, the atmosphere will match the cars. Think sharp tailoring, polished chrome and the glamour associated with Italy’s golden racing era.

More Reasons to Attend

Fangio drives a Maserati 450S at the 12 Hours of Sebring, March 1957.

The Maserati tribute joins an already packed programme, including:

  • A Vespa track opening parade
  • A reunion of the 1-2-3 finishers from the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans
  • A celebration of motorcycle legend Barry Sheene

As a result, the 2026 Revival looks set to balance nostalgia with serious competition. Clearly, Goodwood Revival offers something unique for motorsport fans.
