Goodwood is delighted to announce that Singer will take centre stage at the 2026 Festival of Speed presented by Mastercard, as the marque is celebrated with the Central Feature display.
Taking pride of place in front of Goodwood House, the Festival of Speed’s Central Feature has become synonymous with the artistic and innovative sculptures created by Gerry Judah. The 2026 installation will once again provide a focal point for a daily celebration moment, coming to life with a celebratory fanfare and a collection of cars to honour Singer’s impact on the automotive world.
Over the last decade, brands such as Porsche, Mazda, Aston Martin, Lotus and BMW have starred as the Goodwood central feature that is basically a large sculpture that can extend over 100 feet skywards.
Since its foundation in 2009 by Rob Dickinson, Singer has built a global following as a car company with a unique point of view. Renowned for reimagining the classic Porsche 911, Singer blends iconic design with cutting-edge engineering, material science and craftsmanship. Each Porsche 911 Reimagined by Singer is shaped by the company’s simple but powerful mantra: Everything is Important.
The marque’s presence at the Festival of Speed will extend beyond the Central Feature, with visitors able to explore Singer’s stand in front of the Stable Yard, see the cars on display in the Supercar Paddock as well as in action on the famous hillclimb course. The activations across the event will showcase the company’s evolution, as well as the latest innovations from its teams in California and the UK.
In recent years, Singer has chosen to unveil its latest ideas at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, including DLS (2018), Classic Turbo (2022), DLS Turbo (2023) and, most recently the Porsche 911 Carrera Coupe Reimagined by Singer (2025), all of which made their public debut on the hillclimb to the delight of fans.
Singer’s Founder, Rob Dickinson, said, “I was at the first Festival of Speed in 1993 during a break from touring with the band and never imagined my life would take the twists and turns that resulted in my fledgling design company being invited to attend in 2015. The Festival of Speed has kept us incredibly honest in the decade that followed. Knowing that our work will debut each year on an ever-larger world stage has repeatedly focused our minds and demanded rigour in everything we do.”

Meanwhile, the Duke of Richmond CBE DL, said, “Singer has been an immensely popular partner of Goodwood for over a decade, regularly using the Festival of Speed to unveil their latest work. The design and detail of their incredible, bespoke creations is matched only by the quality of the engineering that underpins them; they really are as close to art as you can get in the modern automotive world.”
