The Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship (BTCC) has officially announced that fans can now secure free tickets for the 2026 Season Launch at Brands Hatch.
The event, scheduled for Wednesday, April 8, offers motorsport enthusiasts a first look at the grid before the competitive season kicks off. While entry is completely free of charge, organizers have emphasized that all spectators must book their tickets online in advance to secure admission.
The Season Launch serves as the final official pre-season test, providing teams and drivers with critical track time on the iconic Brands Hatch Indy circuit. For fans, it represents a unique opportunity to see the 2026 liveries, new car builds, and fresh driver line-ups in action before the opening round of the championship.
What to Expect:
- On-Track Action: Full-day testing session as drivers dial in their setups for the season ahead.
- Pit Walk: A dedicated window for fans to get up close to the cars and meet their favorite drivers for autographs and photos.
- Season Preview: With Brands Hatch also hosting the second event of the actual championship, this test day is seen as a vital benchmark for title hopefuls.
"This is an early chance to get a look at the new drivers, teams, and cars for the 2026 season," the BTCC stated in the announcement.
Refreshments will be available throughout the day, making it a full-day experience for families and hardcore racing fans alike. Given the popularity of the BTCC and the "free of charge" price point, tickets are expected to be claimed quickly.
Fans looking to attend the 2026 Season Launch can claim their free tickets now via the official Brands Hatch website.
