About the Venue - Trinity Park (Suffolk County Showground)
Trinity Parkis probably
the best venue of its type in the country,
that's without a word of exaggeration. It is quite simply
- SUPERB.
With a variety of permanent buildings, complete with power
and all manner of facilities. There are toilet and shower
blocks throughout the 250 acre site. All roads are virtually
flat and every one is a tarmac surface, and on top of that
they all have lighting. Access to the site is excellent, with
large areas that we can utilise as holding areas for everyone
as they arrive. The perimeter fencing is regularly patrolled
and is very secure; another inner fence encircles the main
100 acre event arena providing the ideal solution to many
of the access problems we have experienced elsewhere.

Buildings:
The Trinity building is a multi-purpose brick built unit with
moveable internal partitions that make it a very versatile
building, usable for a wide variety of events. It has excellent
facilities and toilets within the building itself.

| Cattle
building |
The unfortunately named cattle building is the
ideal substitute for the main marquee, it is a timber built
unit that has some concrete hard-standing inside and is fully
equipped with power and lighting. Its total area is 2,339
sq m or 25,169.79 sq ft with dimensions of 68.8m X 34m or
226ft X 112ft and a height of 5m at its apex and 2.3m at its
walls. It also has a number of wide access doors around the
whole building. Toilet blocks and other facilities are very
close by.
