The VW Festival has been running since 2005 and is a weekend long event that celebrates all that is VW. Its not just about the VW camper vans and transporters, but all the VW models. Cars range from old, first generation models to the most up to date models Volkswagen has manufactured. With this huge range it provides a history of VW in one field over 2 days!
There are various activities that go on throughout the festival:
- Show and Shine
- Trade stalls
- Graffiti stands
- Jumble stands
- Club stands

The event is the best place to see the greatest VW's, especially those more desirable vintage models which owners like to exhibit there pride possessions at these types of events. It shows you just what VW has done for the world and how one model can vary and suit others.
