Our Riverside Raceway is the perfect place for little (and big!) racing fans to put their Hot Wheels® skills to the test. Choose your favourite cars, line them up and see who takes the chequered flag as they speed down our multi-lane raceway.
Simple, nostalgic and surprisingly competitive, it’s guaranteed to keep the whole family entertained and create plenty of laughs along the way.
There’s only one way to find out. Head to our Riverside Raceway and go wheel-to-wheel with family and friends in a series of gravity-powered races that are guaranteed to spark plenty of smiles (and a little friendly rivalry!).
Located beside our picnic area and Mini Land Rover Adventure on the banks of the River Derwent, the Riverside Raceway is the perfect place to take a pit stop, settle a family rivalry and create memories together. Better still, every Riverside Raceway ticket includes two Hot Wheels® cars to take home, so the racing doesn’t have to end when your visit does.
Simply head to Reception to purchase your Riverside Raceway ticket for £10, then make your way to our Filling Station Café gift shop where you can choose two Hot Wheels cars from our fantastic range to race – and keep!
Once you’ve picked your champions, it’s time to head to the starting line. Challenge your family and friends to as many races as you like, discover which car is the fastest and see who earns ultimate bragging rights.
The Riverside Raceway is open to everyone, so you don’t need a museum ticket to enjoy the fun. Why not grab a bite to eat or a coffee in our Filling Station Café while you’re here?
If you’d like to explore over 150 iconic British cars after your races, you’ll also receive 10% off museum admission when you purchase a Riverside Raceway ticket.
No two years are quite the same at the Riverside Raceway. We redesign the layout each season, so whether it’s your first visit or your fifth, there’s always a new circuit waiting to be conquered.
Built using the iconic orange Hot Wheels track, our raceway is designed for fast, head-to-head racing that will have the whole family cheering from the sidelines. Expect plenty of thrills, friendly competition and the inevitable debate over whose car really is the quickest!
As the Raceway is located outdoors beside the River Derwent, we recommend checking the weather before your visit. Whatever the layout, one thing never changes – it’s guaranteed to provide hours of fun for racing fans of all ages.
