Camping
NZMCA members can park their motorhome or caravan on the grounds by booking online, which gives a gate code for the Coldstream Road entrance. Big car weekends run their own camping across the grounds under the organiser's passes (Muscle Car Madness sells camp sites from an interactive map).

The track
The showgrounds of the Northern A&P Association, which has run North Canterbury's agricultural show since 1866, on Ashley Street in Rangiora, north of Christchurch. Open grounds round a sports oval with a grandstand overlooking it, plus a 30 by 15 metre pavilion shed, the Skurr Centre meeting rooms and a two storey function centre with a commercial kitchen and bar. Equestrian arenas are used by the pony and polo clubs. No track: car shows spread across the grass and the oval, with camping on site during the big weekends.
