As per the title, I'm planning to leave Baldock in Herts around 6am to arrive sometime around half 8, is this likely to be early enough to avoid the worst of the traffic? Any tips as to where to head in from to make the journey a little easier? I've got an exhibitor pass for gate 10 if that helps at all....

I usually get there around 8:30ish and it's not too bad - just a bit of stop start traffic for 5-10 mins and then it's into the car park.

7am - when the doors open.

You'll miss the traffic and have an almost empty paddock to walk around until the late starters arrive.

I went today, never been before, drove in at 8:30, aghast to drive straight into the car/dust park without a queue. Pretty much the same when we beat a retreat at 4:45... quite amazing how well its run. What a great day!
