you can buy tickets on the door they are £15 each, but reading the other stuff about this your best to do the pre paid parking which you do on line

They’re still available online, aren’t they? You’ve missed the lower price - that ended a few days ago.

I’d say it’s unlikely you’ll get tickets through UKCS unless you’re very lucky. One, not everyone reads every new post every day. And two, the likelihood of someone not being able to go at the last minute (and also reading your request) are vanishingly small - albeit not impossible.
If I were you, I’d ditch the whole idea and get planning for the spring show in Birmingham.
There are other posts wondering how much stock there’ll be to look at anyway, given almost no one who ordered a brand new Motorhome or Caravan this year has got it yet.
For example, Perthshire Caravans was almost empty a couple of weeks ago, little choice of new models in only a few brands. And almost nothing second hand. I’d go over there this weekend instead, assuming it’s a new caravan you’re after.

Hi John

Welcome to UKCS. I can’t help with tickets but as Fiona says above, I would be very wary about buying a new caravan at the minute. We regularly have people posting on here about still not receiving caravans they ordered this time last year and there was one recently where the guy ordered it 15 months ago and it still hadn’t arrived. The dealers will promise you anything but based on what we hear about the backlog in the system, I would be very surprised if you got one within a year.

If you really want tickets it might be best to ask on one of the big Caravanning Facebook groups where thousands of people are reading them every day.

Good luck with your search.

Have a look on face book, I'd be surprised if the parking was free, it always cost a fortune

Hiya, Parking is free, as stated on their website

----------------
Parking: Car parking is included in the ticket price. When you get to the NEC you will be directed to the allocated car park.

It's not for Classic Car Show in November

I have bought tickets so £16 parking or £12 prepaid. I may take the train as not far from Shropshire assuming the drivers are not on strike!

I go to the commercial vehicle one, that's a fortune for parking
