The National is at Belvoir Castle this year from the 22 to 26 May. There will be live music, family fun and activities, competitions, trade stalls and great food as well as an on site bar. 

Is anyone planning on going this year? if so what are you most looking forward to?

It is likely to pale into insignificance in relation to losses at sites, if all but essential travel restrictions are imposed, as in other countries. It is going to be a very difficult time for all businesses.

We had decided against going well before the virus scare.

We've attended the last 3 & in our opinion they've gone down in quality. The number of exhibitors seems to have decreased each year. The volume of the concerts has got so loud that at Ragley Hall we didn't need to go to one as it could clearly be heard all across the site.

Looking at the advert for this years event & I note 3 nights for £114, or £38 a night for grass & 6 amp EHU supplied by noisy, smelly polluting generators going 24/7! Hardly an ECO friendly setup & very poor value for the members.

In these days when emissions from engines etc. are the subject of many protests by various groups isn't it time the club faced up to its responsibilities & offered a more green option to its members.

We attended last years C&CC equivalent & enjoyed the option of a NON-EHU pitch for 4 nights for £80 including free evening entertainment. The off grid area was as busy as those who wanted to hook-up.

I will not attend a National while there is no non EHU option but I am a bit surprised that this years event has not been cancelled yet.
