OMG thats disappointing but good to know.

Next to the arena is ASDA with a cafe & next to ASDA is an Ikea so you can easily get breakfast if it's not included in your stay.

BCSS NATIONAL SHOW 3rd/4th July 2020
Marshal Arena, Stadium Way, Milton Keynes MK1 1 ST

ACCOMMODATION - Available

As you are aware the Society’s Show Committee is in the process of organising the next National Show, we are aware that some exhibitors/stewards and visitors may be travelling long distances to attend this event.

Please read all the thread as some members have FOUND the same accomodation cheaper WITHOUT THE CODE so I have removed it now -TW
We have therefore negotiated with the on site hotel Double Tree by Hilton a delegate booking rate of £75 Bed & Breakfast for a standard Hilton Double room for Single or Double occupancy Inc. VAT for anyone that wishes to stay overnight on either the Friday or Saturday.

You will need to book and pay for your own accommodation using a unique code Guests will need to quote the code DELETED if booking with the hotel directly or alternatively they can use the link below to book.

The reserved rooms WILL ONLY BE AVAILABLE at this rate until
3rd April 2020 after which the concessionary rate will not apply.

There are coaches that will bring you from Luton airport to Mk coach stop ( about 15-20 mins from venue) or a taxi is about £30 ( last time I used one)
