Just spotted a post on Facebook that the 2019 rally is back at Billing Aquadrome. Wonder what’s happened for them to go back

It seems there was bad feedback from market harborough last year but I thought all was good. Billing has changed management since every car show held there was basically kicked off 2 years ago so I am assuming that the venue was offered again and the vboa took it. It has not been divulged if LMF are still involved with the running of the show or not.

It seems from what's been posted on social media that the move was not discussed with the market harborough team first. There are a lot that are not happy. The next few months will be interesting I think.

Hopefully LMF will be involved in some way as I thought they did a good job

It seems that LMF are not going to be involved at all. They are understandably gutted that the decision went the way it did with all the work they did especially when you realise there wouldn't have been a show for the last 2 years if it wasn't for them. Some people have said they have cancelled their club membership in protest.

So the venue for this has changed again! It's now going to be held at sywell aerodrome! Judging by the reaction on FB it seems that none of the vboa clubs were involved in this latest deciding process and a lot have vowed to boycott the show. Next few months should be interesting!

Sywell looks a good venue to host the show and hopefully there won’t be any ‘undesirable’ folks there to ruin it

Sywell looks a good venue and it will like market harborough I think in that we won't be sharing with other holidaymakers etc so should be trouble free. Will be interesting to see how it develops though as a lot were not happy that the decision was made without any proper vote which is in the vboa constitution to do so. The predicted entry prices look to be the same as billing and MH with the exception of one camping price for the weekend whether you stay one or two nights but that's pretty standard across other car shows these days so nothing new.

That is quite a price leap from the last few years, even the Aquadrome wasn’t that expensive! I may not be there this year due to the increased costs
