Lap of Lights is a two-mile, drive-through, Christmas light trail around Silverstone's Formula One circuit, in Northamptonshire. You drive the same track where Lewis Hamilton and Lando Norris race, now transformed with 7,000+ festive lights, 10 spectacular installations, and 35 laser shows. The experience lasts around 30 minutes and you never leave your car, making it ideal for families, whatever the weather. You can book Lap of Lights alongside Ice Trak, where you ice skate inside actual Formula One garages, or Santa's Garage for a 40-minute festive experience with a visit from Father Christmas. Running 11th to 31st December from 4.30pm, this is the UK's only Christmas light trail on a Formula One circuit.
