Thank you Keyworkers

A statement from Andrew, Ali & Adrian

Management team at Japanese Auto Extravaganza

As it stands, we currently don't know how, or if, JAE & NAE 2020 will go ahead. We continue to await Government guidelines on how events - in particular those that involve camping with shared facilities - can operate. We do know that if JAE does open, as we all hope it will, that it may have a number of changes on how we can safely put the various elements of the show together. 

At this current time, we are hopeful that we will be able to still provide an excellent event, supported by the incredible team at the Norfolk Showground. We are exceptionally fortunate that the Royal Norfolk Showground is one of the largest showgrounds in the UK, with wonderful facilities to enable us to safely put on a great show with ample social distancing!

However, we are unfortunately caught in a horrible limbo, not knowing whether we will be able to go ahead. Please be assured that behind the scenes, the wider organisational team are planning all aspects of the event so that we are well prepared if we can open the show. This means that we are restructuring the show layout and the facilities provided, as well as briefing our staff with enhanced health & safety instructions. 

Whilst we await more direction from the UK Government, we wanted to bring you some JAE good news!

FREE TICKETS FOR KEYWORKERS To show our gratitude for everything that our keyworkers have done over the last few months, we are offering every person that buys a ticket for JAE, a second identical ticket which they can gift to a keyworker friend who definitely deserves a great time at Japanese Auto Extravaganza with friends! If you have already bought a ticket, a second ticket will be auto-issued to you before the event. There are some terms and conditions for this offer which are detailed below.  Importantly, all ticket types will automatically be transferred to 2021 event if the 2020 show cannot go ahead. The dates for 2021 are Thursday 12th August - Sunday 15th August

Like the entire country, we are BLOWN AWAY by how the incredibly hard our NHS staff and Keyworkers - up and down the country - are working to keep us safe during the Covid-19 situation. We are immensely proud of all the keyworkers that regularly attend JAE, and we are sure that every person reading this message will know of at least one person that has helped our country during this challenging time. 

Andrew, Ali & Adrian
