What’s On

Show n Shine

Show n Shine is the highlight for any car show and Volks Weald never fails to disappoint with a superb selection of vehicles on display year after year. Air cooled VW’s, water cooled VW’s, Hot Rods, Yanks & Vespa’s and more, it’s all on show at Volks Weald. We like to be all inclusive at Volks Weald and give every one an opportunity to show their pride and joy so we always do a show n shine on the Saturday and the Sunday so what ever day you can come, be great to see you there. Prizes are awarded both days. We always fill up quick so get in early. Gates open at 9.00am on both days, so don’t be late! It’s FREE to enter, just shine them up, park them up and show them off!

Live Music

Volks Weald has quickly built a reputation of always having a great line of entertaining bands and musicians, many of them local and 2025 will be no different. We are planning some amazing bands and musicians  to keep you entertained over the weekend. A full timetable of the acts will be announced over the coming months. If you love your music as much as you love your VW’s, there is only one place to be over the weekend of July 11th! See you there!

Bug Beats

When you think of Volks Weald, what do you think of? Great cars, stunning venue, amazing historic house, great bands, yes all of these and of course, Bug Beats! We are pleased to announce that Neil will be with us all weekend keeping you entertained. After taking on board your comments, we have decided to mix it up this year, Neil will be taking the roof off the Big Top on the Saturday evening and the headline band will be playing on the Friday. So get your dancing shoes on, it’s going to be to be an amazing weekend of music. 

Trade Village

The trade village this year was amazing (so say our visitors) with over 50 trade stalls selling all sorts of goods from VW parts to skateboards. It had a real artisan feel about it and 2025 is shaping up to be even bigger & better with many traders already on contact after their successful trading in 2024. So if you’re a visitor, start saving up your pennies and if you’re a trader looking to book in for the Greatest Show On Turf, head on over to our contacts page and get booked in to avoid missing out on a pitch.

Woodland Walk

The Woodland Trail is a short walk away from the Adventure Playground and provides a managed woodland environment for you to experience and enjoy the nature around you. 
Encompassing a 1km loop, walk along the trail and you will discover log pyramids, mushroom carvings, dead-headging, stumperies and a abundance of wildlife. A great way to stretch your
legs and blow out the cobwebs. 

Dog Show

We always get a huge turn out of dogs at Volks Weald and we know you all love to show your furry friends off. Over the weekend there will be a Fun Dog Show. There will be fun classes and to enter we just ask for a small donation for each entry with all money raised being donated to an animal charity. We look forward to seeing your four legged friends there! Please keep an eye on our socials for updated details.

Adventure Playground

All visitors to the show over the weekend will be able to take their little ones and slightly bigger ones, FREE OF CHARGE, in to the amazing Penshurst Place Adventure Playground. Featuring a commando trail, wooden high top, enormous slide, swings, a toddler area and a new zip line, your little ones will have the time of their life’s. 

Licensed Bar & Quality Caterers

One of the many talking points of the show in past years is the inflatable pub and we are happy to tell you it will be returning. How could we not! So look forward to a nice cool beer or maybe a G & T at the ‘Inflatable Tavern’. Who’s round is it! When you’ve had your drink, head over to our catering avenue and treat yourself to some amazing food, fish n chips, pizza, or maybe a burger. What will you have?
