a track like no other: anglesey circuit 

Tucked away on the breath-taking coastline of North Wales, Anglesey Circuit (Trac Môn) is one of the UK’s most unique motorsport venues.

a brief history of anglesey circuit 

Motorsport on the island dates back to the 1990s when the site was used as a military base before being converted into a racing venue.

Over time, the circuit evolved from a basic oval layout into the flowing, multi-configuration masterpiece we see today.

In 2006, Anglesey underwent a major redevelopment — introducing new track layouts, including the International GP circuit, Coastal, National, and Club layouts.

Each configuration provides a different challenge, making it a versatile choice for events and private testing.
