Tickets For Troops Returns for 2017

Organisers of a popular agricultural show are offering free tickets to the armed forces in recognition of their service.

Kenilworth and District Agricultural Society (KADAS), which organises the Kenilworth Show, will provide 100 free tickets as part of their Tickets For Troops offer.

The partnership between the show and Tickets For Troops is now entering its fourth year, with tickets first being offered back in 2014.

The fourth year of the offer will also mark the fourth and final year of World War I.

Tickets For Troops specialise in rewarding currently serving personnel and those medically discharged from military duty since 2001 with tickets to an event of their choice.

This year’s Kenilworth Show - Coventry and Warwickshire’s biggest one-day agricultural event - will be held on the showgrounds opposite Stoneleigh Park on Saturday, June 10.

The agricultural show has been a hit in recent years with members of the armed forces and William Campbell-Lamerton, from Tickets For Troops, is delighted to be able to offer tickets for another year.

“We are delighted to be continuing the partnership with the Kenilworth Show,” said William.

“Tickets for the show have been hugely popular since we first offered them in 2014 and they are always claimed very quickly.

“It’s vital for our organisation to maintain partnerships with events like the Kenilworth Show and we look forward to continuing to work with KADAS in the future.”

Kenilworth Show director Charlie Weetman added: “It is fantastic to be able to offer 100 tickets to our hard-working troops again this year.

“Since we started doing this in 2014, it has been an honour to host our armed forces at the show and we are looking forward to welcoming them back again on Saturday, June 10.

“This is our small way of saying thank you for all the hard-work our servicemen and women put in throughout the year.”
