Wear comfy shoes.
Take thick shopping bags for all your purchases.
Take some water.
Take lots of SMALL change.
Take every opportunity for a pee.
Take a Camera.
Take your time.
Take small, light raincoat..not umbrella.
Avoid anywhere with a Celeb.. (the area becomes a standstill and/or a scrum.) unless your into that sort of thing.
(If you subscribe to Gardeners World Magazine TAKE YOUR GREEN SUBSCRIBER CARD so you can get discounts from some stalls. )
Take a pen and note pad for plant names
Dont forget the Plant Swap.
Do use the website for info and talk times ..Show Info | BBC Gardeners World Live
If your driving get there early, then you get parked nearer the NEC, which is nice if you have to take stuff back to your car, or if you want to fetch a picnic.
And come on here after you have been and tell us what you bought, what you thought of it.
I'm going weds, when there are lots of plants still in stock for me to buy.
All the best.

Great idea to take a light raincoat, as theres nothing worse that carrying around a wet brolly all day. I won a pair of tickets to this years show, I'll going on Thursday, first time I've been to GWL too!
