Will missing a university open day look bad when i come to apply?

I've just started college and am meant to be going to the nottingham university open day on Friday. I have since decided that i don't want to miss college on that day as i have 3 important lessons that i've just started and don't want to get behind. My parents are worried that if i miss the open day, it will look bad and jeopardise my chances of getting in.
Will it jeopardise my chances?
Thanks

Why not go to the Saturday open day at notts instead?

yeah, that's what I thought. anyway, they don't check or care, the only bad thing would be you wouldn't know what it was like in person.

Saturday was fully booked when i tried to register for it, I'm planning on going to another one if i don't go next friday

The booking thing doesn't do anything but give them some idea of the numbers expected - read the pdf guide - talks are all first come first served, anything you need tickets for you collect from the info stands.

If you want to go on the saturday just turn up (take your friday booking info and play dumb if you prefer) - you'll be able to look around, get tours of the campus and halls, speak to students and staff and get some more info about your subjects.

There will be loads of people who booked for the saturday and then can't make it because of emergencies/changed plans etc...you can just take one of their places.
