Spectator Information
We will aim to let spectators into the venue at the start of the warm up with swimmers being allowed in 15 minutes prior, please try to avoid arriving too early, especially on Friday evening as we have to allow for the public to vacate the main pool. A reminder there is no warm-up facility on Friday evening. The learner pool adjacent to the leisure waters will be available for swimmers as a warm up/down facility on both Saturday and Sunday. Swimmers should NOT access the leisure waters which will remain open to the public throughout the weekend. There is no spectator access to the poolside or changing village and swimmers should not access the spectators area from the poolside steps.
Spectator entry will be via wristband and fees will be as follows:
- Friday evening £5
- Saturday and Sunday – £8 all day
- For those attending just a morning or afternoon session, wristbands can be passed onto other members of you club during the interval
We are able to accept both card and cash payments
