Car Club Fest 2026

UK's boldest new car show brings thousands of clubs, fans, and iconic cars together for a weekend like no other

The UK’s automotive community is gearing up for the biggest car club event of the year as Car Club Fest 2026 takes over the Three Counties Showground from 14–16 August 2026. Centred around the powerful theme “Stronger Together”, this three-day celebration promises to unite car clubs and their enthusiastic members from every corner of car culture — from classic cruisers and vintage vehicles to cutting-edge restomods and modern classics. 

Car Club Fest 2026 is more than a car show — it’s a movement. Designed to spotlight car clubs and their role in shaping the culture, the festival blends large-scale club showcases with competitive showdowns, music, food, merch, and influencer appearances.

“This event is about unity, passion, and giving clubs the spotlight they deserve,” says Mick Forey, Chairman of the TR Register Car Club, organisers of Car Club Fest. “There’s never been anything quite like it in the UK — and it’s long overdue.”

What to Expect:

• Over 50 Car Clubs Displaying for FREE

• Club Pride of Ownership Awards

• Live arena with expert commentary and special celebrity guests

• Live Music, Food Courts & Chill Zones

• Motorsport, both to watch and to take part in

With its inclusive atmosphere, family-friendly format, and unmatched variety, Car Club Fest 2026 aims to become a landmark in the national automotive calendar and continue to provide that all car clubs are ‘Stronger Together’.

Agreed values

We have a number of highly-qualified experts who can inspect your vehicle prior to purchase and provide you with a full written report. In addition to their complete understanding of the mechanical and aesthetic aspects of vehicle inspection, they have extensive experience with the Jaguar marque which perfectly equips them to identify the unique requirements of specific models and years, something that is particularly important for older cars.

The cost of an inspection begins at £100, with the final figure determined by the time needed and the distance the inspector is required to travel. We can guarantee that your inspection will be cheaper than an equivalent AA or RAC inspection.

This small upfront outlay could save you thousands in the long term.

To arrange an inspection simply call JEC Head Office on 0117 969 8186 and they will provide you with details of your nearest inspector.

Also from our club HQ in Bristol we can give you an official valuation for insurance purposes. Our valuations are accepted by all leading insurance brokers and Companies.

Simply call 0117 969 8186 for details

GETTING STARTED

Jaguar Enthusiasts’ Club Insurance is designed specifically for members of the JEC. That’s why it covers JEC TrackSport events and offers cover for JEC Young Enthusiasts. Furthermore, the scheme recognises that members may have a combination of newer and more historic Jaguars and so the scheme caters for all, other individually or part of a multi-vehicle offering.

Club insurance doesn’t operate the way standard insurance does. While it does still take a vehicle’s mechanical characteristics into account, it also places a lot of emphasis on how the vehicle is used, cared for and maintained.

Club insurance also offers a host of benefits and products that you simply cannot get outside of membership of the JEC, such as member to member cover for example. This enables you to drive your friends Jaguars at regional meets, events and on tours with fully comprehensive cover and without the need to complete more paperwork or ring up and incur costs for adding named drivers.

This way, you’ll be comfortable knowing that you have a policy that fits your vehicle and your usage needs perfectly.
