Richard Hammond will appear at Salon Privé, one of the UK’s most prestigious automotive gatherings, held at Blenheim Palace from September 2 to 6. He said: "Salon Privé is one of my favourite events to attend. Last year, Mr Hammond attended the event for the first time, where he judged the debut Concours de Vente and Lifestyle Club Trophy. "What makes Salon Privé so special is that it’s not just about seeing incredible machinery; it’s about meeting the people who own and love them too." The 2026 Salon Privé will also introduce two new Concours classes celebrating modern supercars and hypercars, alongside a revised Best of Show format spanning three car categories.
