Unfortunately the Festival of speed doesn't have a fixed date. Looking at previous years, it seems to have jumped around and can be any of first weekend in July, Second weekend in july or last weekend of June. I don't know whether they do this so that, at least some years, it doesn't clash with other events. Maybe to do with the Grand Prix season? Either way, having got stuck in the traffic going elsewhere before I can only sympathise with anyone who lives that way.
