The usual Flea Market will be located by the main car park, approaching the exhibition Hall. More sellers took advantage of this facility in 2023. Tables are available at just £10 each on a first-come-first-served basis. Some car boot selling space will be available adjacent to the main car park. An advance phone call would be very helpful in planning space.
The Committee and club at TDARS are working hard in preparation for a safe and successful 2024 event.
The venue offers more than just a traditional radio rally and we have developed a good reputation both from our exhibitors and visitors for careful preparation and organisation on the day.
The venue is just a short distance (10 miles) north of the M54 (Jct 3) and is easily accessed from other trunk roads: SatNav code TF10 8NB. See location tab for more detailed directions.
From feedback and given our experience over the years, most available space will be booked prior to the event. We anticipate that a good day will be had by all. You are welcome to respond on Twitter – “X” (@g3zme) or Facebook (telfordhams).
