Making The Most Of St Helena Sports Day
Will there be any covered areas if it rains?
Of course. We have plenty of covered area available. Should there be any rain (hopefully not) there'll be plenty of shelter in the Abbey RFC Bar and The Marquee. There's plenty of space to sit down and enjoy the day even with a slight shower.
Can I bring my dog to St Helena Sports Day?
Unfortunately, dogs are not allowed anywhere on site apart from assistance/guide dogs. If you try and enter the event with a dog you will be denied access to the grounds. Should you be found with a dog within the premises then you will be asked to leave immediately.
Will I be able to re-enter the site if I leave?
Yes. Should you be wanting to leave the site for anything, all you have to do is show all of your passes at our ticket office to regain entry into the grounds.
