A big weekend coming up 12 & 13 September
Posted by Mark | Filed under Blog, News, Next events
On the 12 & 13 of September, Battlefield South will be attending what is likely to be our biggest event of the year. Yes it is the Old Sarum Air Show. Not only will we be providing our Laser tag game, but hope to be staffing the H4H charity stall. This is a great honour, as H4H is one of our nominated charities, and we are really looking forward to it.
The show also promises to be outstanding, and historic as the Avro Vulcan XH588 will be appearing and hopefully providing a flypast with the Sally B B17. This is scheduled to be the Vulcan’s last display on the south coast prior to its retirement from displays and flying at the end of the season. 
In addition to these two great aircraft with be displays by Spitfires, Hurricanes, biplanes and tri planes of the Great War Display Team, the Tiger Club Turb Team, Pitts S1S, Swordfish Torpedo Bomber, The Calidus Autogyro and so much more..
Your ticket not only allows you entry to the show but also to the museum and all the ground displays, which besides Battlefield South are far too numerous to mention here.
We should remind you though that this is a ticket only event, and there are no ticket purchases on gate. So if you want to be part of something historic, you best get in and get your tickets while they are still available. Go to www.oldsarumairshow.com click on the menu icon top right, and follow to the ticket sales. For more information about the show on the ground and in the air follow the link, to the site, explore, and allow your imagination to run riot.

Canford Magna 30 August 2015
Posted by Mark | Filed under Blog, News, Next events
A months rain in just a few hours, and that was just last Sunday. So a big thanks to all who ventured out Sunday afternoon to support the Sky Balloons event. I hope you stayed dryer than we did.
But don’t let that put you off, we are out and about again this weekend. This time at the Family Fun Day being held at the The Hamworthy Club, Magna road, Canford Magna, Dorset. The profits will go to local charities and local area to help the community. There will be stalls or all kinds, with food drink, arts and crafts, Pepper Pig, Kids wonder play area, BBQ live entertainment and Battlefield South. The events starts at 11 am and due to finish at 6pm, but don’t leave it too late or you will miss all the fun.
Moving on from this weekend, here is just a quick reminder that we will be at the Old Sarum Air Show, on 12 & 13 September. There will be a whole host of aircraft including Spitfires, Hurricanes, The Sally B B17 Bomber, Autogyro, the Great war display team, and much more. However more than that, this is the last show on the south coast which has been able to book the Avro Vulcan XH558 and therefore, may be the last opportunity to see this amazing war bird on the south coast ever! As after this season it is doubtful that she will ever fly again. This is due to parts and support is being withdrawn by the companies which keep her going. We have also been asked to remind you that this is a ticket only show, and as tickets are limited I would recommend you get your tickets now. As they will be in short supply and not ticket means no entry on the day. For more information go to their website www.oldsarumairshow.com.

The Old Sarum Airshow 12 and 13 Sept
Posted by Mark | Filed under Blog, News, Next events
On the 12 and 13 September 2015 the Old Sarum Air Show will be reaching for the sky. They have lots of flying attractions, although I am not at liberty to announce them all just yet, there will be the B17 ‘Sally B’ Boeing Flying Fortress, Hawker Hurricane AE977 Mk1, Supermarine Spitfire HF Mk1X and Currently for the Saturday only the top of the shop, The Mighty Hunter – AVRO Vulcan XH558 in what is most likely it’s last season. There will be ground based entertainment to entertain all ages including Battlefield South. However it is a ticket only affair so if you want to go to either watch the show or play with Battlefield South you will need to purchase your tickets in advance. You will also need to be quick, as there are limited numbers available, and I understand that they are going fast. Tickets are available at http://www.oldsarumairshow.com/ click on the menu icon top right, then on Buy tickets at the bottom of the drop down list.
So if you don’t want to miss a great weekend of flying displays and ground displays get your tickets for either day or why not both. Remember no ticket no entry on the day.

Storrington Summer Festival
Posted by Mark | Filed under Blog, News, Next events
Last Saturday and Sunday was the Woodland Country Show, and quite understandably, Sunday was a bit wet for most people. 
However looking forward to this weekend Battlefield South will be attending the Storrington Summer festival where the weather is reported to be warm and Sunny. Held in the lovely village of Storrington, West Sussex the weekend starts at 6pm on Friday 17 July with live music, and closes at 11 pm. On Saturday 18th the programme restarts and runs from 10 am to 10 pm, and On Sunday starts at 10 am until 6pm. The event will feature 2 days of fantastic markets, a beer festival tent incorporating amazing regional beers, ciders and craft lagers. This all will be backed up by an incredible musical line up on stage throughout each day. Plus there will be an exciting kids zone(for all ages) with circus workshops, vintage children’s rides, rodeo bull, inflatable attractions, zorbing and of course Battlefield South. A perfect way to keep the whole family entertained. It promises to be a great weekend so why not come along, bask in the sun and have some fun. After this weekend we will be having a weekend off from public events, as we are booked up with private functions and parties, (there are some mid week dates still available, so if you have something in mind why not call us).
We will however be back with a big bang on 2nd August 2015 at Alexandra Park Portsmouth, With the Portsmouth Dreadnoughts. Details are to follow, however it is their last game of the season, and a charity event to raise money for one of their players who was paralysed from the chest down, following a sky-ing accident in March this year. So watch this space for details, as everyone will be welcome.
