With a little over three months to go until the gate drops on the start of the 2011 International Dirt Bike Show; it's all go on the promotional and organisational front. We have many new features in place, more exhibitors signed up, and some great money-saving ticket incentives on offer, all of which we hope will serve to make this year's show one of the best yet!
Save £££s
There's no denying that, thanks to the current economic climate, shows of all descriptions are suffering in terms of visitor attendance and it can be difficult for prospective visitors to justify parting with their hard-earned cash, no matter how keen they are about off-road.
So, this year, for those of you who like to be organised and book in advance, adult tickets will cost just £10, which represents a substantial saving of £5 over on-the-door prices. Other ticket options, such as youth, senior, child, student and family will be reduced accordingly.
What's more, if those advance tickets are booked for the traditionally quieter opening day, a further 50 per cent discount will be applied as 'Thrifty Thursday' will offer half price admission to all adults. This means an entrance cost of just £5, with tickets booked in advance, or £7.50 on-the-door, to gain entry to Europe's largest, and the UK's only dedicated off-road show.
Advance tickets will go on sale at the end of August and can be purchased on-line, via a link at www.dirtbikeshow.co.uk or by calling the box office hotline number.
Classic growth
The Classic and Evo/Twinshock sector is enjoying rapid growth and rising popularity. To satisfy this demand, this year's show will include an Evo/Twinshock feature in hall three and a Classic area in hall one. Over the weekend, both areas will lead through to a fully enclosed and covered 'Evoshock' Moto Jumble, with free-of-charge entrance. For anyone interested in taking a pitch, the costs are minimal, with prices set at just £45 for a 4x3m2 pitch, and £22.50 for an additional 2x3m2, both plus VAT. The pitch itself is a basic floor-only site and goods sold must be restricted to parts, spares and hard accessories of the era up to, and including, the mid nineties. Strictly no modern-day or new kit like clothing, boots and helmets.
Family friendly
There will be plenty of free-of-charge activities on offer throughout the four-day exhibition, including a new have-a-go arena. With other considerations, such as parking and visitor show guide also free, a family of four could enjoy a full-on day out, mixing it with like-minded off-roaders, from just £10 (based on two adults and two children under the age of six visiting on Thursday 3rd November 2011).
We believe that the decision for off-road enthusiasts to visit Stoneleigh this year really is a no-brainer and look forward to seeing you in November.
