Entry-Admission prices as a guide are as follows;
Any size vehicle with/without a trailer/Caravan with a maximum of 6 persons

At the entrance to the park there is a BP service station and fully stocked shop. The shop is open 7 days a week from 06:00 to 22:00.The shop has a cash machine for the cash you need for the parts you never thought you would find.
The shop seems to be very reasonably priced.
As the name suggests (Billing Aquadrome) the park does have lakes and water ways. People visiting with small children may want to be made aware of this fact, and take the necessary precautions to stop children going for a swim!
It is also advisable to keep dogs on leads due to the amount of cyclists riding around the park. Cycling is also forbidden in and around the Hotrod cars.
We recommend all cycles are locked when not in use.
Also around the Chopper area there will be rubbish sacks attached to posts, please use these to avoid litter entering the water ways and to help the general area to stay nice and tidy, please note: under the new contract arrangements RCOC is liable for all litter left after the weekend which is chargeable to the club!
FIRST AID COVER FOR THE EVENT WILL BE PROVIDED BY RCOC.
Have a safe journey and see you all there!
