Changing Rooms/Showers
There are no dedicated showers, but female and male changing rooms will be available in two dedicated pit garages.

No items should be left in these areas as they are not supervised. These garages will likely be very busy and with limited space, so we advise you to arrive ready to run if you can.

Wheelchairs
These events are suitable for wheelchair users. Any participants wishing to compete with specialised equipment are asked to contact us before entering to ensure we can accommodate any additional requirements.

Buggies, Pushchairs and Strollers
As a UK Athletics licensed event, the pushing of persons in any device in these events is prohibited under the UKA Rules of Competition - including, but not limited to - buggies, pushchairs, strollers (or similar) and wheelchairs. Such devices are permitted in the Family Mile only.

Spectators
Spectators are permitted at this event. In fact, the more the merrier! For safety reasons, spectators need to register to join the Run Fest Silverstone.

Earphones/Headphones
As a UK Athletics event, the use of in-ear and over-ear headphones are prohibited at this event. Bone-conduction headphones are the only exception, because they sit outside the ear.
