York to NEC is only 129 miles or 2 hours 10 minutes. Mostly motorway.
Over the years I've done the NEC many many times in a day round trip and it is a 3 hour 20 minute journey, half motorway half Welsh hilly roads and about 155 miles. Start 5.30 to get there before 9am and leave at 4pm to arrive home at 8pm to 9pm, depending on how many stops we have.

Some folk drive further in OZ for there weekly shop!

A kind offer but I'll pass, especially if the stands are as big as shown, not much point when there'll be more kit at YAMS, sensibly priced food and the dealers that I will actually use. Not bothered about indoors, I'd be outside at work so why fuss about being outside at a show?

More Kit at YAMS your are kidding me tho, there will be 11 halls full at the NEC & there no small HALLS neither. The Biggest the UK has to offer anyways.
Outside shows are fab in June !! not January iam afraid.

As FP says, YAMS is nowhere near as good

YAMS is a good show for any doubters out there. But more of a dealer rather than manufacturer event.

Lamma will be many times bigger I would think.

Both have there place in the agricultural calendar.
