All the buildings at the showground have ramps and are accessible by wheelchair.

PARKING

Free parking is widely available at the showground alongside accessible parking for visitors with access needs.

If you’re a blue badge holder please do not purchase Gold parking for RHS Malvern Spring Festival or Malvern Autumn Show, instead please follow the wheelchair symbols on the signs and use the Brown/West Gate (off the B4209) for allocated accessible parking on hard standing near the showground entrance. Event Mobility are located in this car park for Three Counties Agricultural Society events.

TOILETS AND BABY CHANGING FACILITIES

You’ll find accessible toilets throughout the showground. These are marked on the show plan.

The Mobiloo will be available at CountryTastic and each day of the RHS Malvern Spring Festival, Royal Three Counties Show and Malvern Autumn Show.

It will be located next to the gent’s toilets by Brown Gate. This is a mobile toilet and personal care facility for people who find it difficult to get out of their wheelchairs unaided, or need the support of a carer to use the facilities fully. The Mobiloo comes complete with an electric hoist, adult-sized changing bench, toilet and wash basin.  An attendant is on hand to instruct new users on how the equipment works.

Baby changing facilities are available at West Gate Toilets and the Accessible Toilets in Severn Hall.

There will be an NCT baby changing and feeding area for members and non members at all Three Counties Agricultural Society shows (see map for location).

FREE SHUTTLE BUS

There’s a free shuttle bus suitable for persons with access needs from Great Malvern Station to the showground for the RHS Malvern Spring Festival, Royal Three Counties Show, and Malvern Autumn Show.

This will still run in the event of rail company strike action.

The bus terminates at Red Gate where staff will be able to assist if needed. There are no pickup/drop off stops en-route. We recommend you consider not waiting until the last bus because it can be very crowded.

GETTING AROUND

Mobility scooters are allowed on site provided that they’re driven safely, at low speeds, and the Three Counties’ safety rules are followed.

If your scooter has low ground clearance, a narrow wheel base, or is three-wheeled, we strongly advise you not to use it on the site. The ground conditions are unsuitable for these scooters.

Electric scooters and manual wheelchairs are available for anyone with access needs including blue badge holders and mobility impaired visitors, courtesy of the Event Mobility Charitable Trust.

Please note that this service is only available at our four main shows: CountryTastic, RHS Malvern Spring Festival, Royal Three Counties Show, and Malvern Autumn Show. Event mobility will be located in the brown car park by the entrance. We strongly advise booking this service in advance to avoid disappointment as there will only be a very limited number available to hire on the day.

To book an electric scooter or manual wheelchair specific shows. Please visit Event Mobility or call 01386 725391.

PICNICS

There are wheelchair accessible picnic benches available to use at the showground.

ACCESSIBLE TICKETING POLICY

While we do not offer free tickets or concessions for people with access needs, where a carer is required, one carer may be admitted free of charge per ticket-holder with access needs when they pay the normal admission fee. Please call our Accessible Booking Line on 0800 640 5001 to arrange this. Please be aware you may be asked to provide supporting documentation.

For events which we do sell on the day, carers do not need to purchase a ticket in advance, but documentation must be provided at the gate to prove that the ticket holder requires a carer during their visit. Supporting documentation can vary, and may include proof of disability living allowance or documentation from a doctor, anything that provides proof that the ticket-holder requires a carer during their visit to the Showground. If you are unsure and would like to check in advance that the documentation you have is adequate, please call 01684 584924 and we will happily advise.
