The Show is on 2nd May 2026, but will be in a new Venue, Falkirk High School.

It's a better venue that Graeme High which we've been in for many years now, but with the transfer of ownership of a lot of the schools and facilities in our are we've taken the decision to move it. Bit more floor space, all on the ground floor, same distance from the Town Center and stations for anyone commuting, own car park etc. Catering will be external, but otherwise all good.

I'll get the website updated at some point to reflect the changes, but for the moment it's just the notification.

Just checked out the site on google streetview.

What is the Plan B for when the school car park is full.

Excellent, thanks for the rapid update.

I will pass the question on.

Thanks

10 min walk (according to google maps) Falkirk Community Hospital along the road has additional parking as it's closed to outpatients on a Saturday.

I'll be getting all of this info up on the website in the next week or so, and will do my best to keep it up to date as I'm sure there will be a number of issues we haven't thought of yet/or will need clarification.

That's interesting news, is this new venue one large hall or multiple halls like Graeme High?  And what's the access like for unloading?

From those that went to see the location.... There is a large Refectory and assembly hall (That can be combined into 1 bigger hall) there is also a sports hall along a hallway that is about the same length as the joining hall at Graeme High.

We'll be using the drop off/pick up area for trader parking and (I'm assuming for the moment) that we will have a very similar access via fire doors etc

Excellent, sounds good to me.  I noticed that it's quite close to the other Premier Inn, so I'll check the prices and see if it's any cheaper than our usual one at the A9/M9 junction.
