Season 5 Travel tips. [COVENTRY]

[Paulie_D]

The European Amateur Championship will be held at the G Casino in Coventry on 26th & 27th March 2011.

Casino Address:

Ricoh Arena, Phoenix Way
Foleshill, Coventry
CV6 6GE

Accessability:
The location of the G at the Ricoh Arena pretty much mandates the need for a car/taxi with the only exceptions being the Novotel, which is within walking distance, or the on-site De Vere (ex.71 Rooms) Hotel

WTF Mair?!?! Are you bringing the family!

[Chipaccrual]

how are parking facilitites?

It"s a non Coventry City matchday, so there"ll be a few spaces around the ground.  

Car Park Tickets can be validated at either the casino reception, or if you are staying in the hotel, then reception there.

What Leigh says but park in the Car Park in front of the Casino (Car Park A?) as getting out otherwise can be a little bit of a trip.
