2025 Important Update
FRIAT enclosure 2025 changes
You will see changes for 2025 in the accompanying plan of the showground.
- The FRIAT Grandstand will be moving 175 metres west and 45 metres south from its previous location and will be inline with the Viewing Village Grandstand
- Both grandstands will have the same elevation from the front, with the platform for the first row of seating being approx. 2.2 metres high. This means the FRIAT Grandstand will be approx. 1 metre higher than in previous years
- Members with mobility issues who cannot access the grandstand will still have the ‘Row X’ seats, at the very front of the FRIAT crowd line
- A new FRIAT garden will be positioned in front of the grandstand to the left hand side. This will be staffed and managed throughout the event
- All fencing in front of the grandstand will be low level (1.10 metres) with higher fencing used to secure the rest of the enclosure behind
- Low level speakers will be installed directly in front of the FRIAT grandstand, the FRIAT crowd line and FRIAT garden
The marquee, facilities, secure storage and refreshments will be positioned immediately behind the grandstand.
The picnic benches have been relocated to the FRIAT garden. Please be aware that if you purchase a grandstand seat, but like to also sit on the grass area in front, you will be able to do this if you bring your own chair with you.
