I might be going but not as a participant.

This is the show that used to be held at Leicesters Abbey Park some years ago but Leicester city council in their wisdom massively increased the charges to the various clubs / stands etc therefore killing off an excellent show for the city.

There is usually a show (All Granadas Together) at Wicksteed Park in Kettering (formally held at Billing Aquadrome)
I'll try and find out if it's on this year.

This is what we used to have in Leicester every year.

The reason it was cancelled/withdrawn at Billing was due to an astronomical increase in costs of public liability insurance, can't remember now if it was individual clubs or individual members had to have said insurance to participate.

As in most things costs kill things off. :(
