I am informed that Imber Church had 2135 visitors on the day.

And other churches struggle for even a small audience ... what does Imber have?

I gave Imber a miss this year; glad to see it went well and didn't fancy the more difficult journey to get to a point on the 23A route.  Next year, perhaps, assuming there are trains available to Warminster on the chosen day.

The date is set for Imberbus 2024 !

Quote
The Imberbus Crew

We are pleased to announce that this year, we are planning to run the Imberbus service on

Saturday 17th August 2024

when several vintage former London Transport Routemaster buses (plus a few newer ones) will again provide a bus service from Warminster Station to Imber and other isolated locations on the Salisbury Plain between 10am and 6pm.

Once again our event will be a Car Free Day, with the only access to Imber on 17th August being on the buses operating the Imberbus service. These special arrangements successfully eliminated the severe traffic congestion that we experienced around Imber in 2019, but they do mean that there are some restrictions on what you can and cannot do when you get there, details of which will be confirmed during the summer.
