The location of the Park and Ride car park is in Bodafon Fields (entrance is off Nant Y Gamar Road, LL30 3BB). Spectators should park in the car park (open from 08:00) and will then be required to pay a £2 charge for a return trip to the Great Orme on the coach. Coaches seat approximately 80 people and will leave at regular intervals between the hours of 9am and 12.15pm. The coach will take spectators directly to the viewing areas on the Great Orme Stage (there will be 2 drop off locations) before returning to the Park and Ride car park in a circular trip. The journey to the viewing areas is expected to take 25 minutes. The last bus will leave the Park and Ride car park at 12.15 before the stage shuts down for the competitive action to get underway from 14.35. After the Special Stage has finished, buses will depart from the same two pick up locations at regular intervals from approximately 16:30, returning spectators to the Park and Ride car park. The last bus will leave the pick-up locations at 19:00. Thereafter, spectators will be obliged to make their own way down from the Great Orme. Check website for updates to this information.
2. Spectators will be able to park in a non-Rally organised car park on the Great Orme itself from 08:00. Spectators using this car park will be obliged to pay £5 per car and will need to show their tickets before accessing the roads leading to this car park.

Public car parks are available in Llandudno Town Centre for those wanting to watch the Ceremonial Start, which will take place from 14:30. All spectators for the Great Orme Stage should use the official Park and Ride car park or the private car park situated on the Great Orme.
General advice: As the weather at the time of the event can be wet and extremely cold and the Great Orme Stage will be very exposed with little shelter, please make sure you dress accordingly with a water and wind proof jacket and sturdy footwear.

A Rally adventure ... Fuelling Rally fever
Wales Rally GB, Britain's round of the FIA World Rally Championship, will visit a far greater area of Wales this November, with an opening stage on the legendary Great Orme set to kick off 2011's event. The Rally will also include central service at Builth Wells and forays to the classic forest stages of North and Mid Wales, culminating on the spectacular Epynt military ranges near Brecon.
The Royal Welsh Agricultural Society's (RWAS) permanent showground in Builth Wells, Powys will be home for the main service area, which will be under cover for the first time in recent years in Rally GB. The RWAS showground will also play host to the Shakedown on Wednesday, 9th November.
The event gets underway on Thursday, 10th November in Llandudno, where two stages on the Great Orme Toll road - last used on the Lombard RAC Rally in 1981 - and one at Clocaenog - last used on the Network Q RAC Rally in 1996 - will make up the competitive mileage for the first day. An opening ceremony will take place outside the picturesque castle in Conwy in the early evening, before competitors and their cars return to Llandudno for overnight Parc Ferme.
Friday will begin with an early morning start and the three stages in Dyfi Forest - first used on the 1961 Rally of Great Britain - before heading to Dyfnant Forest, south of Lake Vyrnwy and onto the RWAS showground for midday service. The loop will be repeated in the afternoon and competitors and their cars will stay overnight in Cardiff after travelling south from service in Builth Wells.
On Saturday, 12th November, the event moves on to the much-loved stages in Hafren, Sweet Lamb and Myherin, before a repeat loop in the afternoon. The day will finish in Cardiff - more details available in due course.
Sunday will bring the 1,850 kilometre event - and the 13-round, 2011 FIA World Rally Championship - to a close. Six stages in total - including the FIA WRC 'Power Stage' which will be televised live - will be based around Epynt, centering on the Halfway, Crychan and Monument timed stages. After a final visit to Builth Wells for servicing, the surviving WRC teams and private competitors will head to Cardiff for the ceremonial finish in Cardiff.

To avoid disappointment, spectators should arrive at their chosen car park in plenty of time as spectators who buy tickets on the day will also be trying to access the car parks. The Rally Planner will provide car park opening times.
The majority of stages are located off the beaten track and therefore access by public transport is not feasible.

All spaces are allocated on a first come, first served basis. All disabled persons wishing to gain access per the schedule below will need to display their official disabled Blue Badge in the car.
