Welsh Bash 2020

Post by Ian » Tue May 28, 2019 10:26 am

I've had to get in early on this one. We will be returning to Fforest Fields near Builth from Thursday 14th to Monday 18th May. This is a busy weekend for the site as it is the Spring Fair at the nearby Royal Welsh Showground. They have given us 40 electric pitches and we must let them have confirmed bookings by the beginning of February.

This means that tickets will go on sale in late October, so you keep your eyes on here or the members area for latest information. No bookings in advance; it will be first-come-first-served.

We will be organising a pizza night on Friday, and there will be a coach trip to the Spring Fair on Saturday.

This sounds perfect. Count me in (although I know you can't until October)! :D

We have been allocated a further 10 pitches for this event. There were 5 on the waiting list, so the last 5 slots will be allocated on a first-come basis.
