This is a superb event with so much to see and do every day. Motorhome Fun has a prime rally area inside the showground. Much of the profits from this show go to charity, with almost half a million £££ donated to date. This year the festival is donating to Guide Dogs for the Blind.

Just looking at this and on the retro site it says £100 no EHU for 4 nights and £200 with EHU ..

Is your price quote of £200 no EHU correct Jim ..?

Standard Earlybird tickets for two are £262.50 also you get to camp in a prime spot and you can normally book well after the cheap Earlybird tickets have finished.

You'd need to give them a call Paul. We have the one booking form with the prices pre populated, sorry.

Yes, of course!

His rates are reasonable & responsible but he teaches the demonstration method.
This is where, (after paying the attendance fees into a Charity fund of which, if you wish to PM me, I will forward the details), one can sit back and observe Lenny HB dancing while you relax with a drink of choice!
(Times vary daily!)

Your happiness is important to us, satisfaction guarantee!

Glad to hear that as I wouldn’t want to encourage irresponsible dancing in any way, shape or form. Unable to pay in cash unfortunately, but can contribute to the beer and wine charity of choice!

No problem, I did say ‘contribute’ and I’m sure there are a few miniatures of Disaronno, Cointreau, etc. lurking at the back of the drinks cabinet that would like to see the light of day!

Are you sure you’re not already using the 40% proof one tonight? The sun is well over the yardarm after all, so perfectly excusable.

No, it's a bit early and I'm only using the 38% proof! 😄

Me too, we obviously don’t meet the criteria, we attended the festival last year for the first time, we had a great time and really enjoyed it. After we left we saw that there had been some trouble over generators, we didn’t see or hear any problems or complaints whilst we were there, and it now seems we are being discriminated against because of other people’s bad behaviour. Surely the people causing problems last year must be known and dealt with accordingly.
We were really looking forward to the festival this year, not happy.

I think you click on the link 'who's on at Retro etc' on the 1st post and that will take you to the Retro festival booking page. THEN you fill in Jim's form and all will work! 🤞

I don't think that will get you in the Fun field you need the link from Jim for that.
