The 2024 Garden Party event was a resounding success and the Chapman family is pleased to announce the 2025 Classic Team Lotus Garden Party on the 14th and 15th of June.

The Classic Team Lotus Garden Party is a splendid celebration of Hazel and Colin Chapman’s heritage. Explore a stunning display of exceptional Lotus cars set amidst breathtaking gardens. Engage with fascinating exhibits across the grounds and indulge in hospitality within an elegant marquee on the horseshoe lawn. Limited to 300 guests each day, secure your attendance for £215 at www.ctlgardenparty.com

In celebration of 50 years of the Lotus Esprit, one of each of the Esprit design types will be gathered together on the horseshoe lawn. A new documentary ‘Mud to Monaco’ featuring the first 12 Lotus designs will also be premiered and F1 cars from the Classic Team Lotus collection will be driven through the estate to be displayed.

The Lakeside Marquee will provide seated hospitality and act as the focus for an entertaining programme of presentations, including Special Guests from the Lotus Esprit era who will be invited to share their reminiscences. For those attending the event, Lotus cars will enjoy preferential parking and the opportunity for photography with East Carleton Manor as the backdrop.
