Where to park
Please DON'T USE SAT NAV!
The map shown is by far the best way to get to us.
Don't worry about printing it, however. During the Airshow our traffic management experts ensure that yellow signs are clearly visible on the A11 to guide you the short way to the Airfield.
Amongst the last things to do would be to attempt to go through Attleborough, unless you like traffic jams.
Please don't take the Emergency Route; it won't get you into the Airshow but will cause delays to emergency vehicles.
Our adress: Old Buckenham Airfield, Abbey Road, Old Buckenham, NR17 1PU
Follow directions given to you at the gate, by Threshold staff, DO NOT GET TO THE GATE BEFORE 1830 AS YOU WILL BE TURNED AWAY.
What Happens
Please note that aircraft participation is subject to weather and serviceability. There will be no engine runs at this event.
Please bear with us, as this is our first time at Old Buckenham, we are still planning the arrival process. It will appear here very soon. There will be different procedures to those inside the showground already after spending the day at the show.
We also reserve the right to cancel the event due to inclement weather (However this is extremely unlikely). If a cancellation due to the weather is deemed necessary, you will receive an email the evening before.
Description Title
Where we have announced engine runs, please bring your own ear protection, we may have limited numbers of foam plugs we can give out but this can't be guaranteed.
Please bring your own torch/head torch to help you see in the dark areas especially on grass.
We recommend the use of tripod leg lights or illuminous bands, these help when moving position, so as not to knock over any equipment.
