Because we have to justify spending members subscription fees against the interest shown from the subscribed membership
Last year when we attended there was a deal that if members gave us their ticket stubs we could then present them to the main organization and they would grant us a £1 donation for each ticket handed in and although this was promoted on the website we only managed to present 28 tickets which to be honest is awful as the event is over 3 days

That is one reason but also it takes a lot of effort just to park a few cars on a stand and accompany them. I spent 3 days at the NEC and about 3 transporting display stuff etc I gave myself the Sat off too. At least I was home each night but 5 people (exhibitors) weren't.

It was ok last year but I'm in no hurry to repeat the event. I suppose it's the same with the other events we do like Donington, LakeZ, Zedfest it's a lot of work and a risk. At east the NEC is not affected too much by adverse weather.
