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.

For Volks Weald 2025, we are doing something new for the Show n Shine. We are doing ‘Water Cooled Saturday’ and ‘Air Cooled Sunday’. Saturday we want to see the field full of Golfs, Scirocco’s, Transporters etc and Sunday we want the field full of all air cooled variants. All other vehicle types, Hot Rods, Yanks, Vespas etc, please feel free to display your pride n joy on either day.

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. He will be doing a full Friday night set to start your weekend off with a bang and the Kids disco on Saturday which is always popular as well as playing top tunes across the whole weekend.

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.

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.

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!
