“We introduced e-ticketing in 2013 and it’s been a big success for us,” says Hickstead Director Edward Bunn. “Visitors can order online really easily, then just print off their own tickets or show their smart phone or tablet at the gate. Because of this, we’re able to get people on the showground quicker than ever before. We really want to encourage more people to book in advance, which is why we’ve introduced this discount.”

Adults can save around £5 per ticket by buying before the shows, while children’s, senior citizens’ and family tickets are all cheaper in advance than on the day. There are advance discounts available across all general admission and members’ enclosure tickets.
