Next Knysna Hill Climb To Be Open To All Brands

The Jaguar Simola Hill Climb is one of the biggest motorsport events in South Africa. However, the event is taking a new approach for its 10th edition. Knysna Speed Festival and Jaguar South Africa have announced a new business model for the event that will open the festival up to other vehicle manufacturers in an attempt to take the event to the next level.

“Jaguar’s commitment was never more in evidence than when we went to them with our new vision, which will grow the event into the future to become one of the premier Hillclimbs on the global calendar, and they immediately gave us their full support. Pursuing this goal will demand a lot more resources and, to allow for this and make the event sustainable over the long term, the business model had to be adapted to be more inclusive of the other motor manufacturing brands. “We are eternally grateful to Jaguar management for backing us in this quest and for its continued support going into the future as one of the top tier manufacturers,” Shrosbree adds.

The Hill Climb will be open to all brands from 2020, but the event will also offer a top-tier partnership package for 5 brands to have access to live stream branding, track branding, hospitality, track time, VIP runs, exhibition space and race entries.

The 2020 Simola Hillclimb will take place from 7-10 May with the entry process and ticket sales opening in October 2019.
