County shows & county fairs
People come to the county show looking for a day out with lots to see and do. They have time on their hands and money in their pockets. If you lay on enough entertainment to keep your visitors entertained for a whole day, then they may spend the whole day with you.
Your exhibitors will be happy, your visitors will be happy and you will be delighted with the extra revenue stream the skating rink provides.
Remember, you pay a flat charge for the rink, according to your requirements, and then you keep 100% of the tickets sales.
The wide open space of your show field is a good starting point if you are intending to erect a synthetic ice rink. If you have a hard standing already in place at your venue, that is an ideal situation though if you need to have the rink on grass, that is fine. A simple butt-joined wooden platform laid on the field before we arrive to set up your rink is all that is required.
