Boating enthusiasts have only a few weeks to prepare for the world’s biggest dinghy show, which is set to take place at Alexandra Palace in London next month.
The Royal Yachting Association’s (RYA) Dinghy Sailing Show takes place between Saturday March 7th and Sunday March 8th and is set to include a wide range of maritime attractions.
These include a behind the scenes look at Britain’s success at the 2008 Olympic Games, with medal-winners from the event set to be in attendance, along with RYA Team GBR manager Stephen Park.
Laser sailor Paul Goodison will provide hints and tips on sailing faster – while a number of prize draws are also planned, with dinghy accessories for the holidays up for grabs.
Tickets can be purchased both in advance and on the door and are currently priced at £9.13 for adults and £4.35 for children.
Described as one of the most “visually unique” venues in the English capital, Alexandra Palace is located in Wood Green making it easily accessible for people staying in London.
Given the popularity of the event, many enthusiasts have already started to book their hotels. Many of the London hotels are already offering massive savings in order to attract customers.
Online booking website LateRooms.com is offering cheap London hotels with up to 75% discount. LateRooms offers hotels ranging from luxury apartments to boutique hotels. In particular Mount Mansions which offers 5 star luxury apartments is offering its Junior Suite double for £89 for 2 adults. These apartments are approx 2 miles from the venue.
There are many alternatives available in the area during the event. However visitors are advised to book their rooms as early as possible to avoid any disappointment.
