Going to Olympia for first time :-))

[Supertrooper]

A work colleague goes every year and this year I've decided to go as have wanted to for along time. So I've decided to treat myself after the crap year I've had!

I know it's not for a few months but any reviews/tips etc we're planning on going for the weds evening performance but having lunch etc first xxx

Make sure you give yourself plenty of time to visit the shopping hall!
There's lots of interesting shops, so, it's not just about spending, and you may also need to factor in time for a shopping break to rest your feet!

You'll love it. Start saving now though as its very tempting there, particularly as it puts you in the Xmas mood.

ooh exciting I too am going to go this year 1st time ever!!!

I am going to miss your horse live and possibly HOYS so I can save enough to spend at Olympia

Have fun, I have been the last 6 years in a row. I am not going this year as I've just had so much to pay out for (typical as it's the first year I actually have a Horse to buy for, maybe it's a blessing in disguise really hehe)

Take lots of money, give yourself plenty of time. Take your own food! the food and drink is very over priced!

Thanks for all your tips, pls keep them coming

Are the tradestands fairly high end, what I found at HOYS was it was all very expensive stuff xx

I usually try to get seats at the back in one of the corners - great all round view I think! Give plenty of time to visit the shopping bit - it's amazing!! Save up as well, there are often really good deals Also take a camera, to put pics up on here of your experience. Have fun, it's absolutely fab xx
