Ramadan 2026 sees Banqueting House host first ever Open Iftar in London (UK) 20/Feb/2026

First Week of Ramadan 2026 sees Silverstone Circuit and Banqueting House host first ever Open Iftar. Ramadan Tent Project (RTP) gears up for an unprecedented start to Ramadan 2026 with its multi-award winning Open Iftar, marking its 13th year of bringing people of all faiths and none together through culture, community and connection. Under Ramadan Festival’s theme of Hope for 2026, the Open Iftar series will host events across 8 UK cities at some of the most iconic landmarks and venues. This week will see Silverstone Circuit, home of the British Grand Prix, host its first ever Open Iftar. On Saturday 21 February, the world-famous circuit which hosted the first-ever Formula 1 World Championship race in 1950, will be the first motorsport venue in history to open its doors to the local community and visitors alike, fostering connection during the holy month in a truly unique setting. An unprecedented evening of faith and reflection in the fast lane – at one of the world’s fastest and famous racing venues. Stuart Pringle, Chief Executive Officer of Silverstone, said: “Silverstone has always been a place where history is made, and we are proud to mark a new and meaningful first by hosting our inaugural Open Iftar in partnership with Ramadan Tent Project. Opening our doors during the holy month of Ramadan is a privilege, and an opportunity for us to use this iconic space in a different way, one centred on community, connection and shared experience. We are grateful to the Ramadan Tent Project for bringing Open Iftar to Silverstone and for the chance to be part of Ramadan Festival 2026.” The first Open Iftar of Ramadan 2026 will take place at a new royal address for the very first time at Banqueting House, a magnificent survivor of the lost royal Palace of Whitehall cared for by independent charity Historic Royal Palaces. On Friday 20 February, the royal palace will welcome hundreds of guests from all backgrounds to break their fast for the very first time in over 400 years, in a marvellous setting steeped in British History and heritage. This follows last year’s historic Open Iftar inside Windsor Castle’s State Apartments in collaboration with Royal Collection Trust, marking the first Iftar gathering in St. George’s Hall in the Castle’s 1,000 years of royal history. #ramadan #ramadan2026 #banquetinghouse #ramadan #ramadanUK #openiftar #openiftarUK
