This event is going to be total rubbish. Ticket prices joke. Hotel prices joke. This is a speedway grand prix not charles wright beating a load of second division riders to win a so called british final. If anybody is stupid enough to pay this sort of money best of look to you. I pay less in six months for tnt sports than belle vue want for one night

Put you're toys back in the pram 🙄

Firstly will I be going, yes, it's a no brainer as it's miles cheaper for me than Cardiff because I live close. 

Now I will pay £180 for me and my lad in the grandstand for both nights which IMO is good value for a Grand Prix.  I think the South stand pricing is pitched perfect.  I do feel the prices in the grandstand are way too high and I feel the east stand is also over priced as it should be the cheaper than the South stand (no roof,view not as good).  I do feel the expectations of the cost were never going to be as low as some wanted, but time will tell if the have gone too high.  Some believe it will sell out, well if it does then they have priced it right.  I'm not sure although I do expect much bigger interest than the SoN.

Nonsense, the event will be amazing, the size of the crowd is yet to be determined.   Stick to tnt then, me I prefer live any day of the week, you don't get great life experiences from a TV set.

Surely the staging costs are minimal compared with Cardiff... The cost to hire a 60k stadium for a week, plus the cost of equipment hire, shale and manpower to build a track is way more than a temporary stand for 2 nights.

Isn't the issue that Belle Vue has to pay a staging fee to WBD. That is the large cost that has to be recovered, and if that is doubled for two GPS then the economy of scale is significantly reduced.

However, without figures it is just speculation on all our parts

Maybe a bit of empathy wouldn't go amiss.

I'll have a moan but we'll be there as one day my daughter might decide she's too 'cool' to come (possibly sat in your season ticket seats😂). However, I'm also aware we're in a fortunate position where we can afford to do it.

There are plenty of people who have been supporters for a long time who have been completely priced out. You can surely understand that they are angry?

nobody knows what costs b/vue have got to put 2 GP'S on it's never happened before even in poland i am supporting my club the best i can if that means top money well so be it  you make of life yourself and how hard you work for what you have in life i know i am in a fortunate position to afford most things in life  so £500 ticket money it has to be nothing we can do about the pricing it is what it is to many green eyed fans on here !!!

Does being able to afford most things in life not stretch towards literacy lessons?

South stand works out at £2.50 per race (46 races) when for 33% less (£1.67) you get to watch Premiership standard races with 3 of those races being heat 2’s.
It’s the big chunk of cash in one go that speedway fans cannot afford. Tickets should have been released sooner with the option to pay over several months. 

£2.50 for GP heats seems ok to me, I’ve more of a problem with the £1.67 for the heat 2’s.

Also, as with any UK speedway meeting up & down the country, I hope it doesn’t rain and hope it’s a well attended success with no injuries but that’s just my opinion.
