While the best country sports bargains and competition prizes in Ireland are to be had at the Irish Game & Country Fair, Birr on the 31st August and 1st September www.irishgameandcountryfair.com The Midland Fair on the 14 & 15 Sept 2013 at Weston Park ShropshireTF11 8LE is probably the best place for both in the UK.

FREE ADMIN or FREE ADMISSION? If it is FREE admission to the main Fair have to say well done to Ian - we are only offering terrier, whippet & lurcher folk two days for the price of one but of course also the best prizes in Ireland.

 

People wanting to race their dogs on Saturday AND show their dogs at Birr on Sunday email me at irishgamefair@btinternet.com for details of 2 days for the price of one.

I think you will probably find that the FREE ADMISSION TO BORRIS THAT YOU QUOTED FOR BORRIS FOR TERRIER & LURCHER FOLK IS NOT INTO THE MAIN FAIR - but as I said good for Ian if he managed to negotiate this. OUR TWO DAYS FOR ONE ADMISSION CHARGE FOR TERRIER & LURCHER ENTHUSIASTS gives everyone the chance to really enjoy all of the attractions of BIRR and the DEMESNE.

Well written reply.

 

You seen to be on top off things so it seems, pity about the charge for kids, What other shows charges for parking?... Nearly as bad as charging for kids.

John, I thought you were something of an expert on shows/events! - lots of events charge for parking including quite a few of the agricultural shows and most charge for programmes and kids. I don't think it fair to charge a couple ( of even say young guys) the same as families and that is one of the reasons why we make a nominal charge for children within a family ticket. It makes very little difference really in that at Shanes we charge £25 for a family ticket for up to four children - nominal charge £1.25 per child. Moira charge £24 for two adults and accompanied children 'free' so at Shanes the extra charge over Moira is c .25p per child! We concentrate on giving families lots of VALUE for money FREE entertainment inside the fair with living history villages etc specially provided to both entertain and educate and two ongoing arenas plus good interaction on quite a few attractions. At Birr there are many existing onsite attractions which normally cost €5 admission per child and these are provided within the price of admission to the fair giving additional family value for the admission price and a really big day out for the whole family. VALUE for money is more important to families rather than promotional pricing and of the ROI events Birr does give families the best value for money!
