I bought a weekend camping ticket for £35 so I would guess its £10 a day if not a bit less

The ticket buying part of their website appears to be down at the moment though

Thanks, only prices I can see is other car clubs advertising at the price you mention, and only 2 types of ticket available - thurs-sunday and sat-sunday. Im not going to pay £35 for just the Sunday.

Bit late now but it was £15 day ticket kids under 12 free. But to be honest I think they were making prices up on the gates, seemed a bit dubious when some lads were turned away yesterday evening after refusing to pay £40 each entrance...

JAE organisers you need to look in to this.

Well we ended up going but you're not far off regarding the prices, Im not complaining but i got in for £10 and my son and his friend ,14 & 15 yrs old, got in for free. saying that there weren't a lot of cars still there when we arrived so maybe that had some bearing on it?

Today or yesterday? It was packed yesterday, still so after the fireworks at 10pm. You did walk down to the second field/camp site didn't you? A lot of groups were displaying down there, Celica, MR2, S2000 and this

Unfortunately didn't get there till 12ish today, was going to go yesterday but thought the rain might have put a downer on it. Obviously I turned out to be wrong as my son thoughtfully pointed out most of the way home.
Next year I'll go Saturday and maybe camp as well.

Tbh it's a waste of time going on the Sunday as most folk are packed up and away by 11am. I always go for the whole weekend but if I was choosing a day to visit it would be Saturday as everyone has arrived and set up their stands by then.

As a weekend social event it's great fun! Just spent another brilliant JAE with Civic Type R Owners. biggrin
