Revive & Thrive Village
At the 2023 Goodwood Revival, style icons gathered to champion vintage and second-hand clothing. Great British Sewing Bee winner, Annie Phillips; Hill House Vintage; Dandy Wellington; Charity Shop Girl; Lori-Jade Siegel; Bianca Folley, and authors, Andrea Cheong, Justine Picardie and Charlotte Sinclair all came together to share their stories and expert insight.
A host of pop-ups by Hardly Ever Worn It, By Rotation, Rosie Brain, The Marcon Court Project, A Circular Story, Miesje Chafer and Smithereens Knitwear inspired creative ways to rethink, repair and re-wear special vintage pieces, while Nerrisa Pratt’s Sewing Atelier taught a range of upcycle and mending skills.
Revive & Thrive Workshop
Championing the heritage and endangered crafts used to both create and preserve objects of lasting beauty, TV’s Micaela Sharp and Dominic Chinea will lead this creative hub of experts. From gilding and loom weaving, to Macrame and traditional sign-writing, explore a variety of pursuits and discover a new hobby at the workbench.
Revive & Thrive Restoration
The cars and bikes in the hallowed Paddocks have been lovingly restored by generations of passionate owners in order to race again on the historic track, boasting incredible stories of resilience and care.
Within the Revive & Thrive Workshop, visitors enjoyed meticulous feats of engineering in real time, where seemingly defunct vehicles were given new life by Parkes Restoration, Heritage Skills Academy and Tim Gunn, and The Rag & Bone Man created new curiosities from otherwise wasted materials.
