Give us a head up Keith. What kind of a day would it be and of course, the man himself and his wife are there to meet people I take it?

He's there yes usually with his daughter Chloe. If you like cars, food and drink, market stalls and being at Nick Mason's house you're in for a good time. You can get things signed by Nick.

You've more or less sold it to me.
From extremely limited experience, he's rather more polite when engaging people than his guitar playing cohort in PF.

Hello,

as a volunteer at the event , I can give an authorized advice.
Not ALL the people at the event can have have an item signed by Nick MASON (+11000 people attended in 2024)

Normally, we organize two sessions for signature during the day.
The queue is limited in number and no more than two items to sign for each person.
So, you know the rule ! Kindness is expected and donations too !

I plan to visit again, it will also be my third year.

In theory a run from South Somerset to Corsham should be 1h 20m but local road congestion means I will allow at least two hours this year as I would like to get a couple of items signed.

If you do get to meet Nick, could you ask him if the Saucers are still a going concern.

Hope it’s a great day, many thanks.

The time slot between 9h30 and 11h30 is the busiet !
It is due to the very narrow path (Middlewick lane) and thousands of cars !
Remember that if you have a dream car (not me!) you will have access to a specific parking. Also for disabled people.
Volunteers will be present to help you.
Good shoes are recommanded.

Not sure (my own opinion!)
