Best described as a Goodwood Festival of Speed for the north-west of England, the 2011 Cholmondeley Pageant of Power will be bigger and better than ever. For the first time in its four-year history, it will run over three days, from 15-17 July.

The move will allow visitors access behind the scenes in the pit area and to view the international field of famous cars, racing drivers and motorcyclists before the competitive race action starts on Saturday. It takes place on the Cholmondeley Estate, close to Nantwich in Cheshire, and tickets cost from £15.
