Olympia

[AG18]

It's that time again!

I am ready to book my tickets for this year, as they sell out so quickly. I really want to go on Wednesday for the kur and Monday for the ponies. They have a group tickets discount for Wednesday and I'm wondering if anyone knows of any groups that are getting tickets at the 40% off rate. (cheap as chips if you ask me!). If so please let me know as I really want to go on both days and it gets a bit expensive!

OH & I will be there!

 

[teapot]

Hoping to be there for the dressage kur but this is dependent on uni exam timetable

I am dragging my OH to Olympia as well - he is desperate to get out of it as he thinks horsie types are weird (including me) but he hasn't managed to come up with a good enough excuse yet to avoid it

My o/h is loosing his olympia virginity this year as well- i go to the football with him so he is treating me to member lounge ticket- cant decide what day to go and im getting worried it will be sold out!!!

 

[melv1lle]

Exactly my thinking! I put up with him calling my horse "Dobbin" all year so he has to come to Olympia with me.

I have bought us member tickets as well so if you go on the Sunday see you there! Although you should book soon because when I booked yesterday the member tickets were already sold out for Friday and Saturday.

I'm going on Sunday too

Not got memeber tickets though, just normal ones

I booked my tickets back in the summer4 - in fact the day they were released!!
Got front row tickets for the final evening performance!!
Soo excited!

My tickets arrived in the post last week!! yay!!

I am going on Friday evening - if anyone wants to meet me and 2 smelly kids (Hattie and her friend!)????

 

[melv1lle]

By the way am I the only one who is very excited about it (even though I should be too old)?? I absolutely love Olympia and have done since I was little. I don't know which bit is best - the shetland grand national, the police horses, the jumping itself or ... all the fabulous shops were you can spend all your money on stuff your horse doesn't really need

 

[Ash the arab]

I love it! It is my 'real' Christmas day!
A friend and i have been going for the last 3 years and it is our treat.
As for the favourite part?.....Well, i just love it all!

Scostello-what is the sceduele for sunday- o/h really couldnt cope with dressage bless him ( dancing gee gee's are his words)
I really want to get him into showjumping as its my sport that i love!

 

[melv1lle]

Hi, not sure which jumping class it is on the Sunday but have a look on www.olympiahorseshow.com. If you come you will recognise me immediately as the one with fifty carrier bags dragging a very grumpy looking bloke around!

 

[matthew]

Ha -great! i will PM you nearer the time if i get the tickets -we could treat the o/h's to a beer ( champagne for us!)

Which seats should I be looking at getting? Thinking about the ringside ones (green on the website)
