If anyone has any to add please do!
 
Next year we will be running 'Easter at Avon Bank' (Covid willing) and also the Pershore Plum Festival Rally, also at Avon Bank Meadows, Wyre Piddle, Worcs.
In addition to those two, we have organised a rally to coincide with the Devon County Show at Topsham, Exeter. The dates are fluid at the moment but the Show starts on Thursday 20th May 2021.
 
I forgot to mention, the two Pershore rallies are the same price as Pershore Plum this year ie £13 a night.

Looking forward to a return, assuming I’m quick enough when you post... 😎

Morning,

I Never post and ask for names to attend on the same day.
Historically, (get me!) I announce on say, a Monday and give a time and date for names to go on 'The List' on the following Sunday evening.
That way, everybody gets the same chance.
I can tell you that neither event will be posted until the New Year.
 
International Campervan Show 23-24 April 2021 & Adventure Overland Show 17-18 September 2021 - both at Stratford Upon Avon. Camping is likely to start on the Tuesday before until the Monday after the Shows.

Doesn’t bode well for 2021!!
Or with the current Staycation trend dealers may just have sold out of stock of caravans, motorhomes & accessories so don't need to pay high NEC stand fees?! :smiley: From what we have read & our recent experience with dealers in UK & Germany they can't keep up with sales or supply enough stock to meet the huge demand.
 
I am so hoping to be unavailable to attend any of these shows, owing to my feet being in foreign seas and a cold drink waiting in the van.
 
Warners Shows open for booking earlier this year - Wednesday 18 November https://www.outandaboutlive.co.uk/shows . Don't forget to opt for the club discount & choose Motorhome Fun to be pitched with Funsters (y) Know many of you are old hands at this but might help Newbies & good to have something to look forward to :)

If anyone has any in planning please do post as diaries getting full & bookings in progress or starting soon!
Popular campsites (with so many breaks postponed from this year) like Highlands End, Dorset are already filling up & if the Staycation trend continues then camping pitches could be in high demand again next year.

Warners Shows are open for booking now https://www.outandaboutlive.co.uk/shows/ - there are price increases but still some good value breaks. The Money Back Guarantee is a sensible addition as a refund may be preferable to transferring booking if some Shows don't go ahead.

STOP PRESS;

It has been reported today that the Devon Show for 2021 has had a Calendar move and will now be held on the first week in July.

This means, as far as our proposed event at Topsham is concerned, that it WILL NOT take place to coincide with the Show.

Our Rally, Temporary Event WILL still take place during the Third Week in May 2021.
 
UPDATE: Appletree Stratford Meet discount booking code now live https://www.motorhomefun.co.uk/forum/threads/stratford-3rd-10th-may-2021.231892/page-2 booking here http://www.appletree-exhibitions.co.uk/stratford-upon-avon-caravan-and-motorhome-show.html with the code STMAY21 & don't forget to let toledo know that you have booked.
For anyone that wants to make it a two week break this Norden Farm, Dorset one https://www.motorhomefun.co.uk/foru...rly-booking-discount-ends-31-december.219106/ is directly after this.

Posted elsewhere but, just in case you've missed the 'New' information. The organisers of The Devon Show' have moved the dates of the Show from May to July.

As a result, 'our' Event at Topsham will NOT now coincide with the Show. However, 'our' event will take place in May.

Can't take it on ourselves BUT;

Just read of Facebook that there are moves afoot for the Lymington Seafood Festival to be held at er? Lymington Hants, on 16th, 17th, 18th July 2021.

Anyone fancy running a rally to coincide with the event which was very popular when last run.

Just sayin'
 
Does anyone know if there's a motorhome fun area/ rally for the Retrofestivals this year ( being optimistic ) ? Tia.
