Le Mans races into London

Chelsea Auto Legends event to celebrate 24-hour race with special display of cars.

Some of the world’s finest road and competition cars will come together for the first time at the inaugural Chelsea Auto Legends on Sunday 5 September.

Held at The Royal Chelsea Hospital in aid of the Chelsea Pensioners, the event honours the Le Mans 24 Hours race with a special display of cars. It will also feature a tribute to Steve McQueen, who starred in the 1971 action film Le Mans, which featured footage from the actual race the year before.

As well as a number of prestige, exotic and supercars from both road and track, there will also be helicopter and military displays to ensure there’s something for all the family.

Discounted tickets for the event can be purchased online at www.chelseasautolegends.com for only £12 (£15 on the gate). Accompanied under-16s are free.
