Railway Modelling Open Day
We look forward to welcoming visitors to our first Open Day on Sunday 20th October 2024 at Lyde Green Community Centre, Willowherb Road, Lyde Green nr. Emerson Green, Bristol. BS16 7GW.
We’ve several aims for this event. Firstly, it’s an opportunity for as many local model railway clubs and societies to display and showcase what they do and to inspire and enthuse both existing and new modellers in the hobby. If it generates new members to these clubs then that is another plus.
The second aim is to deliver a comprehensive and diverse range of layouts, modelling displays, societies and local trades to help visitors ‘See how it’s done’, to ‘ask how?’ and to ‘find out how to do it’ and to ‘Inspire the hobby’.
This is an opportunity for modellers and enthusiasts, societies and local traders to advertise and enthuse the hobby. All proceeds raised on the day will be donated to the local community and numerous charities.
There is ample free parking and a local Park and Ride for overspill parking too.
The event is all on the ground floor with full dissability access and light refreshments are available.
The event is open from 10am until 4pm. Entrance is £3 per adult and all accompanied children have a free admission.
