Trying to decide which day to attend the MMOC rally but can’t find any information as to what’s happening on each day. Does anybody know?
I’ve checked Minor Matters and the MMOC and Gaydon websites but can’t find any detail about what’s planned separately for the Saturday and Sunday.
Are there different things scheduled for different days or will both be the same?
Previous rallies I’ve attended saw the autojumble held on the Saturday, along with the trade stalls, etc, while the Sunday was reserved for the show and awards, etc.
What’s happening at the National Rally?

Are member's Minors and general public's cars in the same area? Where are member's spares sales pitches?
I think the leaflet needs proof reading....

Re: What’s happening at the National Rally?
Only two members have booked for car boot, and so will be included amongst the other traders. It should be a good rally for spares with over 30 stalls expected.
There will be a completely separate car park for the public visiting the museum but not the rally. Modern cars will not be parked amongst Minors.

Re: What’s happening at the National Rally?
Thanks for the update. The car park thing is a relief. A pity that more members aren't selling spares. there is a treasure trove in people's sheds and garages, (Inc here in Uttlesford) but understandable given the entry fee, the pitch fee and accommodation on top.

Where do you get this information? We have booked for the rally, but just got emailed two tickets with QR codes, no other information.

Re: What’s happening at the National Rally?
That comes from the programme that will be handed out when you arrive. It hasn't even been printed yet, but what I posted is from a proof copy that the organising team got at the end of last week. There's a lot of work that goes into organising the rally, and volunteers to get involved are always welcome.

Thank you. I only asked in case it had been sent out with the tickets and we had not received it. All looking very exciting. Many thanks for all the hard work!
