Great show last year. I’d like to get to it again this year.

I'm booked in but the girls are Irish dancing in the all Irelands that weekend, so not sure if I can make it again this year 😔

Many heading this weekend? Thinking of heading up early and trying to get a spot for the day, going by their website the date for official pre-booking in has passed.

I'll be there, usually drop the car in first thing in the morning, and then head back in around lunch time - the joys of living close by!

Tickets sold out on the day they were released, didn't make it to the close off date.

Might just be able to head down in the morning for an hour or so, always a great show

Have never made it down to this before, any tips on where to park and wander down into the show on foot?

Getting mixed weather reports for this tomorrow. As long as it doesn't get rained off like some years!

Its not looking great, in 2 minds at this stage..

@K55 If you're early enough you could get parked in the town somewhere & dander in so you can make a quick escape, but queues can be miles and miles back from 10am or so from experience. Think the quietist road to come in is from Kilkeel from memory

If anyone is coming in from kilkeel direction just be aware there are temporary traffic lights on the way into rostrevor because of a landslide in the winter, so traffic could be bad that way too.

Also, the road from Kilkeel side is a nightmare if you get stuck behind the boys coming in the Tractors lol

Last time I went I dropped in from the Hilltown side, seemed quick enough. Although I was pretty late in the day.

Plenty of classics going through newry today at lunchtime. @K55 I was probably lucky but we went at lunchtime last year and got into kilbroney car park with basically no queue

Last year we got parked in the football pitches beside the show, paid in but was a handy 60 second walk, I’ll be down with the mini and brother evo 3 , hopefully the rain stays away

I'm a huge fan of this show - always an eclectic mix of cars from every era, and well worth the trip if you haven't been before. Will be bringing the Series 2a Land Rover again this year, and while it's still not "finished," it's definitely heading in the right direction. Hopefully we won't need the big yellow lever for the grass with all this rain!

Brilliant show as usual, pouring down now, got to see most of it before cracking the umbrella out, some highlights for me.

Fantastic turnout like always. Something for everyone there I think. Weather turned just after lunch but that’s what raincoats are for!

My pick of the show was that 6R4 with the vr6 engine swap. Wonderful stuff. My photos at https:/ timfoster.smugmug.com/Events/Kilbroney-2024
