AUTOSPORT INTERNATIONAL 2013 - Questions and What To Expect.
Discussion
^^ What he said.
The PH element of the show is open for the whole four days, however you can't buy a public ticket for Thursday or Friday. They are only open to trade eligible or MSA Licence holders/BRSCC members.
Hence the consumer marketing focuses on the weekend show, but a lot of the marketing you'll see here and on places like Autosport advertises the 10-13 dates. Confusing I realise, but Autosport International is effectively a trade show and a consumer show wrapped up into one event.

Okay, i'm still a little unsure about this though. I've got trade day tickets for Autosport International on the Friday, so do i get access to the Pistonheads show or don't i?

With the exception of the Live Action Arena, all tickets (public or trade) give you access to all areas once you're inside the show. There are no barriers to the PH show, just a change of carpet colour and content from the main hall.Please say yes....

Ha ha I have been to the trade day the last 3 years and NEVER gone into the PH bit as they never advertise it as open and assume it is not!!!!!!! Genius!!! The current ad clearly states open Saturday and Sunday only!! Would it hurt just to say it is open all 4 days, trade only Thursday and Friday and public Saturday and Sunday? Or am I being too simplistic??

Me and a friend of mine are coming on Sunday, few questions:
1) Can we spend loads of money on stuff we don't need?
2) Is the oval arena outside? If so will the rain impact any performances?
3) How long can we expect to be occupied for with everything?
1. Yes1) Can we spend loads of money on stuff we don't need?
2) Is the oval arena outside? If so will the rain impact any performances?

2. No
3. All day
I fancy this, but not privileged enough to get a freebie trade show ticket for the Friday. So it's £34 for a ticket on the gate, yikes. Earl March has a lot to answer for driving up prices for events in the UK. European equivalents are no way near these rip off prices - or am I missing something??

I understand there is a Group On offer till tomorrow where tickets are about £16.http://www.groupon.co.uk/deals/leicester/haymarket...

It won't be there yet, or at all. It'll be in the programme when you get there, or the usual large maps in the halls.
How come? They have had the maps online in previous years when the Classic Motor Show was on so how come they don't have any for Autosport International?The reason i want one is because i like to plan out a route around the show so i visit all the places i want to go to first and don't miss anything...
