Lincoln (Hemswell) Autojumble

[Popcorn]

Just had this from them:
We have now relocated to Lincolnshire Showground, where all Lincoln Autojumbles shall now be held. We shall not be running any further autojumbles at the Hemswell site. We have listened to customer feedback and have decided to relocate to the premier showground close to the heart of Lincoln city, which needs no introduction. From this we shall benefit from a large indoor seated café, indoor toilets, full disabled access, professional show area, and first-class resources. We have taken pride in never previously increased our charges over the last 14 years. However, this move does include a slight price rise to £2 entry per person and £15 per stall (unlimited space). We feel that this continues to represent good value and we look forward to continuing to work with long standing customers and welcoming new. This represents an exciting new time for Lincoln Autojumble and we hope that you will continue to support this event in the heart of Lincolnshire. Please get in touch with any questions.

Next event Saturday 30th August.

Is this event any good? Better/same as the York one?

Personally I prefer it to the Rufforth, but it did go downhill after they had to stop using the Hangar with the cafe's in.
This was down to the few antique stalls that where in the hangar complaining stuff was been stolen.
I'd expect it to get even better now and once the word gets around it'll just get bigger now it's at the Lincoln show ground.
The costs compared to Newark are so much more reasonable.

It's a hike for us but we could likely combine it with a weekend away. £2 is a very reasonable entry fee. I presume you can park for free like at Rufford. We've been to a few smallish car shows this year that have advertised auto jumbles but they've all consisted of about 5 tables. It's nice to go to one with lots of stalls and a good selection of stuff.

That could be worth a look , sounds better than Newark .

Anyone else go today ? Was a good little Autojumble quite small but seemed really busy. As I said above this is definitely gonna get bigger.
