Pickering Showground must be doing some marketing - the C &CC's "feast of lanterns" (national rally) is there 28-31st August as well (bank holiday weekend)

That should test the organisation before the motorhomers get there
Just a quick point Mike, The bank holiday is the weekend before.

Yes, Sorry, making assumptions before looking at diary! Thanks Gerry

The A169 Malton to Pickering road is a bottle neck at the best of times and with the amount of traffic the show will create it could be a nightmare. The A169 in the other direction takes you to Whitby via Saltersgate and Blue Bank across the North York moors.
The A170 also runs through Pickering, from the north one will have to tackle Sutton Bank (not for the faint hearted) and in the other direction it goes to Scarborough but not many outfits will come from that direction. So most of the traffic will be on the Malton - Pickering Road.
The showground has never hosted a show of this size but as Mike has already stated the C & C C Feast of Lanterns rally is on from the 28th to the 31st August. I don't know how many units attend but it could give an indication how well the area/showground copes with the large numbers expected.
The ideal venue would have been the Harrogate Showground but I don't think Warner's would pay their price.
We don't live far from Pickering, but if you have travelled a couple of hundred miles it's no fun sitting waiting to get into the showground for a couple of hours.
Hi All
i have attached a part of a article from outandabout MMM re the york/pickering show,
THE Northern Motorcaravan Show is moving to a brand new venue this year.
It will take place at the Pickering Showground and organizers have also revealed today that legendary performer Des O’Connor will be the Saturday evening’s headline act.
maybe a change of venue will bring better weather.
