Good luck.

We at Sunderland Astro recently held our Jupiter nights at our Observatory and 878 people attended on one night. We were later informed that at least another 80-100 people could not get in because of traffic jams trying to get in.

We found ushers and traffic management were the two key issues.

Hope all goes well and look forward to reading about your world record on this thread
