This event will be taking place on 29th May 2016 - most likely to be on the Brighton seafront as usual.

It is a Jaguar EXCLUSIVE event, and I am working on gaining much more industry support than previously, and ensuring that everyone has a fantastic day to remember.

There will be a convoy on the morning from Pease Pottage Services to the seafront, with us all setting up camp in one huge parking block prior to a fantastic breakfast with a sea view, and the main meet with as much going on as I can pull together for us including a free raffle for a number of must-have goodies, industry reps (see Industry Attendees list below to see who will have reps onsite) for you to quiz with problems, discounts etc etc. Plus the usual Welcome Packs on the day with free samples, info etc etc.

If you would like to sign up for this event please just pop a post on the thread inc how many will likely be coming, and car details, and I will add you in, noting you can join just the main event, or the event and convoy. If you prefer, you are also very welcome to sign up by dropping a line to JaguarForumsUK@solidlinux.co.uk :-)

If we are able to raise 100 Jaguars this time round I can come up with a much, much snappier name for our future events, and can organise so much more for our 2017 event..

So lets see if we can do it and take our event to the next level!

If you have held off signing up for this, not too sure if it is going to be the great Jaguar event it has been slated as being - it is genuinely going to be a fantastic and most importantly FREE Jaguar day out (apart for parking and fixed price breakfast costs) ideal for you, your Jaguar and your family so why not sign up now?

We have made it easy to sign up too!

You can pop a post on here, email me at JaguarForumsUK@solidlinux.co.uk, tweet & follow us at @JFBrightonMeets #MayJagMeet or even friend our facebook page www.facebook.com/JaguarForumsUK

Welcome to a great event - our Annual Brighton Convoy & Meet!!

Wouldn't this thread and the event attract more of the right attention if it was in the Jaguar section?

Agreed with both of you :-) This is a Jaguar event and not titled ideally but it is what I have for the moment.

Just a brief update for anyone finding the thread...

Brighton & Hove Highway Events team has given final confirmation that Madiera Drive will be open and available for us. I am currently waiting on the Brighton & Hove Parking team to confirm the rates for the pay and display parking on the day, and I am waiting on feedback from some local hotels regarding recommended accomodation and any discounts for people who may be travelling some way to the event - noting we do have a group travelling across from the Netherlands to name just one location.

Additionally I am on the case regarding the primary venue and obtaining space there set aside for us, have had final confirmation regarding the industry reps that will be attending on the day to answer all your Jaguar sales, servicing, lubrication and transmission questions..

We also have confirmation of our breakfast venue which is to be the Harvester in Madiera Drive, with a fixed price breakfast of £4.99 plus drinks.

As soon as I have confirmation of approved event accomodation, parking costs at the main venue and anything else that pops up I will let you know.
