[SteveSheldon]

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 :-)

OK guys this is happening in less than 5 months time...

I am currently still working on the additional indoor venue trying to get that onboard, prior to chasing one other big potential automotive sponsor, our contact journalist at the Brighton Argus, and some accomodation discounts for anyone making a weekend of things.

I have revised my potential figures as we have gone, and now believe we can get 100 Jaguars together! :-) That will be quite some event for us all!

So go on, if you haven't signed up yet for a fantastic Jaguar day out by the seaside please do!

If not you will miss out on free welcome packs, samples, discounts, a great convoy, a fixed price breakfast by the sea, a big free prize draw with lots of great must-have prizes, seeing Jaguars that cover a huge number of production years, meeting all those people you know online but seldom get to meet, socialising, and enjoying everything a location such as Brighton has to offer.. there will event be photo shoots, and banner signing for posterity!!

So go on.. put you, your Jaguar, and your family forward for a great Jaguar day out!!

You can pop a post on here, or tweet us at @JFBrightonMeets #MayJagMeet, or friend our Facebook page at www.facebook.com/JaguarForumsUK - it's free to sign up for, free to attend (apart for parking costs and the fixed price breakfast) and guaranteed to be a great day out!!

[SteveSheldon]

Quick update - Tony from Harwoods is hoping to be able to bring along a showroom F Pace AWD for everyone to have a look at :-)

[SteveSheldon]

Ultimo have also confirmed that they are bringing an Ultimo branded vehicle along with a rep for all your questions on the day!! Many thanks to them also for their ongoing support of our Jaguar event!! please see them at www.ultimoltd.co.uk/collections/all meanwhile if you would like to know more about them

[SteveSheldon]

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!!

[SteveSheldon]

OK things are on the move here - we are now listed on not three but four automotive forums - three Jaguar specific forums and one well known but not Jaguar specific forum!

[SteveSheldon]

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.

[SteveSheldon]

OK the first bit of news - I can now confirm that we are officially booked as a group for breakfast on the day :-)

We are booked into the same restaurant that we used last year, which is the Harvester in Madiera Drive, Brighton ( Find & Contact Us ). They will have a fixed price (recommended) breakfast on offer at £4.99 plus drinks which can be bought individually at various prices or unlimited for £2.60 - just state when ordering your food that you are with the JaguarForums.com
event.

Overall the standard of the food, and speed of service was good last year so I am hoping for the same this year :-)

[SteveSheldon]

Also as of this morning I have final confirmation from Brighton & Hove Highways Events team that Madiera Drive will be open and available to us on the day - just waiting on the Brigton & Hove Parking team to get back to me with the parking costs for the day.

[SteveSheldon]

This event will be taking place on 29th May 2016 - with the main venue being Madiera Drive 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.

There will be a fixed price breakfast laid on for attendees on arrival in Brighton, at a cost of £4.99 for the recommended (two of everything :-)) breakfast, plus drinks at individual prices or £2.60 for unlimited drinks. The only other cost for the day is the parking which I am waiting for the Brighton & Hove Council Parking team to confirm for us.

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 :-)

[SteveSheldon]

OK guys, hot off the press - we now have the support of Pease Pottage Services (Moto Services) - we have 20% off all Costa purchases at Pease Pottage, and an indoor area set aside for us on the day - so when everyone arrives at Pease Pottage just head in, grab a coffee, Tea, or soft drink with 20% off and we will be distributing the free Welcome Packs etc etc indoors there prior to us heading down to Brighton seafront for the main event!

[SteveSheldon]

ALSO today, I have had a response from the Brighton & Hove Parking team regarding the pay and display parking rates. they say that we have to bear in mind that the charging rates may change in April, but currently we are looking at the following rates: 1 hour £3.20, 2 hours £5.20, 4 hours £10.40, and 11 hours £15.60.

I realise this is quite steep, but there is little I can do about it this year - sorry :-( I will however look into raising either sponsorship to cover these costs or maybe an alternate venue for next year.

Meanwhile I will continue working on everything else for this years event, in an effort to keep any other costs off the menu for everyone :-)

[SteveSheldon]

This event will be taking place on 29th May 2016 - with the main venue being Madiera Drive 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.

The initial meeting point will be Pease Pottage Services, with an indoor area aset aside for us and 20% discount on anything from Costa (remember to say you are with the JaguarForums.com event to get your discount) to help get your day started. The Welcome Packs will be handed out at this point, and the main features of the day covered.

Then there will be a convoy down to the Brighton seafront creating a huge Jaguar statement with up to 100 cars, all setting up camp in one huge parking block in Madiera Drive.

There will be a fixed price breakfast laid on for attendees on arrival in Brighton, at a cost of £4.99 for the recommended (two of everything :-)) breakfast, plus drinks at individual prices or £2.60 for unlimited drinks. We are booked in the Harvester in Madiera Drive - remember to say you are with the JaguarForumns.com event when ordering.

The only other cost for the day is the parking which is likely to be £3.20 for one hour, £5.20 for 2 hours, £10.40 for 4 hours or £15.60 for 11 hours (Brighton Council are reviewing the rates in April though ).

CaptainHam has suggested setting up & using the pay by phone parking app on your phone prior to the day (saves fishing around in pockets for change, or in this case, notes)

The main meet will follow on from then with as much going on as I can pull together for us including a free prize draw 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. Not forgetting that this is your chance to meet up with all the people you know online, maybe advise them on any issues you have solved or figured and for others to help you out with any issues and to check out up to 100 Jaguars including the new Jaguar F-Pace AWD!!

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.

OK, quite a bit has been happening this week, and it is only Tuesday so here is a quick summary of where we are at this moment in time..

We now have 45 Jaguars and 71 attendees, 12 official event sponsors, not one but two confirmed venues, fixed price breakfast booked, the parking charges are now known, We have discount codes, freebies, free prize draw, three companies onsite to meet everyone and answer all and any questions, banner signing for posterity, photo shoots by an event photographer professional, and EVEN 20% off your drinks at the first venue :-)

We still need to see if we can achieve our target of 100 Jaguars, finalise accomodation arrangements for those travelling some distance to attend, follow up any last sponsorship leads etc., finish producing the Welcome Pack info, and we will be almost there :-)

[SteveSheldon]

A HUGE thankyou to everyone - sponsors, supporters, and attendees for getting us to this point! I can genuinely say that we have a guaranteed great Jaguar day ahead of us..

OK, I am still not getting any results regarding accomodation, well not results that I am looking for :-( so I apologise for that - I will keep working on it, but maybe need to vary my method..

Meanwhile however there is one establishment that is well placed for Crawley Town Centre, has very easy access to our event start point, and is easy to locate when travelling to it:

Holiday Inn Express
The Squareabout
Haslett Avenue East,
CRAWLEY, RH10 1UA
ENGLAND, UK
Email: reception@hiexpresscrawley.co.uk
Phone: +44 (0)1293 525 523

If I do manage to get a response I am looking for (ie an event attendee discount), from any of the hotels best placed/priced for us I will let you guys know, but have to admit I have given up holding my breath for the moment.
