Event Japfest 2024 - 7th April 2024 - Silverstone Circuit

Hello all, just had my vehicle pass information etc. sent through from the organisers - but it did go into my spam folder. Just for info, might be worth keeping an eye on your spam in case the same happens to you.

For first timers, you can access your vehicle pass by downloading from your Japfest account. This needs printing off to hang from your suit hanger interior mirror for the day.

Looking forward to it now, see you all there!
 
As for time to get there, definitely the closer to 7 the better...this was 7.27

Is that the queue of all the people who had been waiting for the gates to open since the early hours?!
No wonder you see people at these car events wanting to leave by about 11am! I can guarantee I won't be there before 8am, looks like there will be a queue however early you get there, I'm sure I'll still get in there in plenty of time to enjoy the day.

Ive been attending for a few years now and its a breathe of relief once your on site as per my pic......to get to that point take your own chances as it isnt the usual route to Silverstone that motorsport events use...make your own choices and hope to see you there!!
 
Quick update as promised.

  • Remember to print your display pass and ensure it's visible for marshalls and have your entry tickets with you on arrival
  • Gates open at 7am for show vehicles and close at 9am - if you are late, the organisers will send you to a general car park. The show opens to the public at 10am
  • It's likely queues for display cars will form as soon as the gates open and it will get longer the later you arrive, so please be mindful of this
  • We are in area 8, T Entrance, which is a decent location within the infield - look for the GR Zoo flags which may help you find us
  • We are looking for a couple of volunteers to help with organising the GR Zoo parking line-up, please send me a message if you can help but you'll need to be there at 7am (before the majority of our cars start to arrive)
  • A parking plan won't exist until we can see the space we have on the day, so work with us as we have over 60 cars to fit in our space
  • Cars can be spotless or dirty, your choice!
  • The '24 map is shown below and a club information pdf is also attached
  • If anyone is after mugs, stickers, posters etc which all help to fund the forum then please drop me a message before Friday 5th and you can collect on the day

Hi Chris what mugs have you got and best bring a few stickers if you have any.
 
Absolutely gutted but I’m no longer going to be able to make it. I’ve been on a course for work this week and it runs until the Tuesday after japfest with two of exams that day. The course was booked after JapFest and I was hoping the level of work required would be manageable but I just can’t afford the time it’ll take to drive down and back from Scotland. ☹️
