What are the charges out of interest?

From recollection £20 for the day or £35 the weekend if you're in the motoring display.. Previous years it was free if you were in the demo but I heard some had abused this hence introduction of charge this time round. Personally I'm ok to give up my time and to pay a contribution so long as it goes to charity.

£20 for 1 day, £35 for two days. The thing is while it may not sound much, its the strings attached about when you have to arrive and leave. You are expected to be there early and cant leave until the end.

Sadly one of the reasons of the charges is because some people promise to turn up then don't bother! So they have helped bugger it for the rest of us!

Beaulieu gets it, we get in for free and have free hospitality, tea and cakes and entry to the museum and in return many of us light up the rubber and give sprint demonstrations. to the crowds.

To be fair Dunsfold can be a bit windswept (like many airfields) and although there are flying displays it can be a long day hanging around.

Fantastic weekend blessed with great weather and some of the best selection of cars , bikes and air displays I've seen in years.
