Going concern

Affirmed

“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events

• “The company again held its two flagship motorsport events in 2024, with the Festival of Speed "FOS" in July and The Goodwood Revival in September. FOS yet again continued to grow and continually moves forward in terms of performance. Admissions, Hospitality and Sponsorship all trading above expectations.”
• “The 82nd Members' Meeting, held in 2024, has firmly established itself as a standout fixture not only in Goodwood's annual calendar but also within the wider motorsport landscape. The event continues to grow in popularity among both attendees and participants, setting a new record in 2024 with a two-day attendance of 42,000.”
• “In 2024, the company successfully hosted the third edition of its canine-focused event, Goodwoof, a celebration of dogs featuring a wide array of activities, exhibitions, and displays dedicated to all things canine. The event was met with great feedback and marked a significant success.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
