Good morning,
Having gone right past the Black country radio rally last Sunday realising too late that one was going to take place I looked around and found a webpage with most of the amateur radio events that take place this year. See below.

Hope this helps anyone looking for a local amateur radio event.

Cheers Christopher,

Blimey, that event was less than two miles from me and I didn't know anything about it !

TTFN,
Jon

That's a really useful list. I'll make this thread sticky so we don't lose it.

Mod edit: One missed off the list in post 1.

From rsgb website:

Grantham West Community Centre, Trent Road, Grantham, Lincs NG31 7XQ
There is car parking and disabled facilities at the venue. Doors open 9am and entry is £3. There will be trade stands, special interest groups, an RSGB bookstall. Catering is available on site. Kevin Burton, G6SSN, 07793 142 483, g6ssn@btinternet.com.

Last year was their first one and was most enjoyable.
Rally is small, well run and friendly and all nice and warm indoors. It is easy access off the A1.
