A.    In order to see the start of the event you should arrive at Nelson School at least an hour before the event starts. The ground is only 1 mile away, but you need to allow time to find your seat. We are open from about 5 hours before the event. Last admission is ½ hour before the event starts. You can check times here.

Q.    Do I have to book, or can I pay on the day?

A.    For many events, the car park is sold out to pre-booked customers. Any remaining spaces are offered on the day on a first come first served basis

Q.    Do you have toilets?

A.    The toilets are always open before the event, and usually for about 2 hours afterwards.

A.    A 25 seat minibus will be able to get into the playgound, anything larger wont be able to make the turn. More details here
