SATNAV USERS - POSTCODE IS CO5 8SX

We are joining force's with 300zx.co.uk for this event, with a big joint Club stand. I appreciate that this new venue will be out of the way for some people, but the journey will be well worth it.:)

JAE's new permanent home for 2008 and beyond will be at Mersea Island which just outside Colchester

Our stand will be situated in the Fuji area on the above map.

The show venue is over 60 acres and has a huge amount of potential for us, already catering for club and enthusiast shows all year round and with some amazing facilities on site - we're amazed we managed to miss it previously as its perfect for JAE!

Loads of parking on a totally secure site
Full Bar and off- sales
Japanese themed bar and special hot and cold SAKE bar
Large function room with permanent DJ facilities and stage
Outdoor hard standing marquee for live bands
Indoor trade area as well as outdoor pitches
Speedboat with inflatable banana ride experiences from the Beach
Yes, you read right - a beach!! - which is part of the site
Log cabins for families and groups with electric and heating as well as the Vast camping areas as usual
Various planned activities such as inter-club Its-a-Knockout competitions ( inc 5 a side football ), some themed in Japanese endurance- Takeshi's Castle style!!
Full food village as well as a huge canteen which will be providing not only dinner for those who grow tired of junk food but also each morning the canteen will provide full English breakfasts, served up in true dinner-lady style - Previously an important detail which was missing from JAE for the morning after a night socialising

….. but best of all, the venue is really quiet and in the middle of nowhere so we can make as much noise as we like and go on for as long as we like. But if you’re worried about too much noise we have an area completely set aside as a quiet camping for those who may have families etc as the site is designed to cater for all, making it even more family friendly in certain parts of the site to ensure everyone has a great time.

There will Also be the BEST Oasis tribute band in the country performing on the friday Night. :)

More details to follow but we WILL be having a joint club stand at this big national show.

And YES...We are right next to the BEACH!!!:dance::dance:

Watch this space!!!!!!

It's a shame it clashes with round 4 of the zclub drag challenge at santa Pod. There's allways the Saturday. Whole weekend booked then!!

Hope they have checked that spring tides don't clash with that date as the road to it gets covered then:unsure:

Thought Id log on to see what opinion was over this venue. I know its certainly mixed on our site.

It would appear that someone has looked at the tides on the JAE site, and conclued that it WILL be a spring tide.

It is suggested that the road can be shut for up to 90 minutes EITHER side of high tide - so people may need to keep that in mind.

Wrong event Paul we are talking about JAE here not a Z only event
The last one at Billing couldn't cope with the numbers and they had used every field at Billing
So Not Simple for them is it:rolleyes:
