A flagship hospitality centre with steelwork designed, manufactured and supplied by REIDsteel has officially opened at the iconic Thruxton Motorsports Circuit.

Motor racing legends Nigel Mansell and Murray Walker performed the honours during Thruxton’s 50^th anniversary celebrations over a weekend in early June.

The £1.5m hospitality centre at Andover in Hampshire includes a restaurant, bar, exhibition gallery, function rooms, hospitality suites, catering facilities, viewing terraces and a balcony.

Its innovative design also includes a grand atrium and entrance lobby to reflect the dynamism of motorsport and Thruxton’s rich heritage.

We designed, manufactured and supplied all of the steelwork, cladding and glazing for the modern, two-storey building alongside local contractor Mata Construction.

It is one of many cutting-edge arenas and stadiums we have designed and manufactured both at home and abroad, including football grounds and sports centres.

The project architect was the Chapman Partnership, which specialises in the motorsport and automotive, leisure and entertainment industries.

Construction started on the 1,415 m2 complex in August 2017. It can host up to 400 guests over two floors, with extra capacity available outside.
