May dude, we always have it weekend after mayday, camping on fri and sat night approx £10 a night for tents and campers and £17 for sites with electric (will need to check) Cafe on site too.
Fri night bucketed last year but saturday afternoon and night were great and the Sunday was there's probably few pics in gallery from last few years. Over 100 dubs, and about 80 aircooled so it's the biggest or second biggest aircooled gathering in the country (not sure how many would be at Éirespares meet). really easy to get too, only a few hundred yards off the Junction10 roundabout on M1

I followed Deckie up last year - up to that point I had never realised how fast a 50's 1200 oval could be !

I will definately be going this year, it was a class day - helped by the weather no doubt, but very freindly and well organised.

Bring the Kids, it is a great spot right on the lake and a good family day out.

May - Jesus I better order some parts.

if its a weekend event, perhaps a few of us could meet up and travel up to it. i am intending on going on the may wicklow run aswell... but who says we cant do the two....?

The May - Wicklow run could pick up the Meath Massive on the way and we all turn up at it.

That sounds like a great plan, Since we're meeting in the Spa Well of the M50 at 11:00 and in Laragh for 01:00 for lunch.
It could work out well.

It's now the 1oth year of our Oxo show, attracting over 100 VWs, at least 80aircooled annually. There's camping on Friday and Saturday nights (£12/£17with electric pernight) and the show is on Sunday. We have the entire site booked as usual so you'll only be camping with other dubbers, campers, caravans, tents all welcome,a nd we normally would have at leat 30 cars etc down on the Saturday. Oxford Island is about 200yards off Junction 10 of the M1 near lurgan so really easy to get to!
Entry is completly free , including raffle and window sticker, although we do have a voluntary charity collection.
