This event takes place every year. The Longs cannot keep away, and are joining other Jersey Island Healey owners again for this spectacular event. There is usually a parade for all vehicles taking part, and a display for the car clubs on the Saturday and Sunday. A local Jersey member organises the Healey participants. You book your own ferry and hotel arrangements. If you fancy a long (haha) weekend in Jersey, then please let Richard Long know by email or give him a call on+44 7831 196534

This will be hosted at Donnington in 2026, a change from Silverstone in 2025.

A longstanding popular event with around 30+ cars attending. Rob Law, of Orchard Restorations, throws the workshop doors open to reveal a range of interesting, mainly Healey, restorations, repairs and service work on the go. Rob is generous with any advice or fixes you may need on the day. There’s always a good BBQ and good company. Highly recco, particularly for new members. Please email Rob that you are coming so that he can cater for numbers.

Jeff very generously hosts this annual event, which allows us to join MG club friends, to drive over his lawn, sit under a gazebo (as required!) and enjoy a summer’s day with BYO picnic in good company. A great opportunity for new members to meet others in a very relaxed setting. Please contact Jeff to let him know you are coming.

A big show- over 700 cars last year, along with Parts stands, a flower show, a good choice of eats, drinks etc with a good atmosphere.

You will need to book via the Capel 2026 website when created, stating that you are an AHC member so that you are allocated to our stand. Please email Nick with any questions
