The layout design for the 2022 Gathering, similar to 2021, but with some improvements, changes and additional challenges!

Layout size: * ft wide x * ft long

The layout design for the 2021 Gathering, showing the layout within the building, along with both a fully populated plan and a roadway version. This puts into context the size of the layout and venue, it’s BIG and it’s the BIGGEST yet!

Layout size: 64ft wide x 296ft long

This layout was intended to be used for the 2020 Gathering, however due to the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic this was postponed. Unfortunately we are now unable to utilise this design as we are moving from The Lady Eastwood building to the larger George Stephenson Building for 2021.

Layout size: 76ft wide x 142ft long

This was the year we moved from Woodgreen to Newark, and whilst Woodgreen has served us well, Newark’s facilities served us much better. From the larger hall to the polished concrete floor, and generally more modern facilities. This would bring many advantages, as well tasting the option to move to a larger hall at the same venue if required.

The second event, held again at Woodgreen, with some lessons learnt, and greater ambition, we put together a 45 degree dual carriageway. This brought many challenges and delays due to the complexities and custom angles required, and was the only time we have done this. Following the event we were informed that Woodgreen were withdrawing the building from utilisation for refurb or demolition, whilst resulted in a need to secure a new venue, and we made our transition to Newark Showground for 2019.

Layout size: 68ft wide x 181ft long

The first event, hosted at Woodgreen, with some trial and error and a green carpeted floor. The start of the ambition, and the only time there has been a race track included within the layout.
