Plymouth Model Show - 2018

[arj]

A date for your calendar - 30 June 2018:-

The Plymouth Model Show 2018 has been moved from its usual slot in April, to June.
This has been done to have the show on the same day as Armed Forces Day.
All the Forces displays will be on the Hoe, about 10 to 15 minutes walk from the Guildhall (depending on your walking speed).

I'll post more details of location of car parks and costs next year.

Cheers,
Andrew

Now that the show is just over two months away, it’s time for a reminder, and a few details for anyone attending

For map location for the venue, feed ‘Plymouth Guildhall’ into Google maps.
However, don’t use the associated postcode of PL1 2BJ since it will simply show you the complete PL1 area.

Clubs displaying and Traders can take advantage of parking adjacent to the Guildhall at a nominal cost.
However, please note that this space is very limited and will be available on a first come first served basis.

Car Park locations generally can be found at:-https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&s...&sqi=2&usg=AFQjCNGMzAOH931QHuONLDNzN1liFoCxqA

Car Park costs etc., can be found at:-http://www.plymouth.gov.uk/carparks
Some have a limited period, so check beforehand

For further details about the show please contact Roger Haskell at:
E-mail:- [email protected]
Telephone:- 01752 267527

or, if you have any problems/difficulties, please PM me and I will ensure that your details are forwarded accordingly.

Look forward to seeing you there.

Cheers,
Andrew
