Preparations intensify for VolksWorld Show's record-breaking event in 2026
VolksWorld Show 2026 Returns to South of England Showground
The much-anticipated VolksWorld Show is set to return on Sunday, 22nd March 2026, at the South of England Showground in West Sussex. This year's event promises to be the biggest yet, celebrating all air-cooled Volkswagens.
The main show day will feature a variety of air-cooled VWs from across the UK and beyond, with display passes starting at £10 and covering one air-cooled VW with driver and passenger included. Camping is also available at £30 per pitch, accommodating two adults and two children for two nights.
Saturday at the event will kick off early with club displays, special exhibits, autojumble traders, aftermarket suppliers, a bar, and a DJ. The festivities continue into the night with a bar and DJ to provide enthusiasts a chance to gather before the main event day.
Last year's event, held for the first time at this venue, saw 1000 display cars and 4000 attendees, with more clubs and displays than ever before. This year, the event maintains its focus on air-cooled Volkswagen vehicles and the enthusiast community, with no specific additional entertainment or special guest details announced as of yet.
The show will also include a kids entertainment area, a bustling autojumble and trade village offering parts, accessories, and merchandise, and a dedicated camper van zone sponsored by Campervantastic.
Meguiars has been confirmed as the show and shine partner for the event, and EMPI has renewed its headline partnership. The 'Editor's top picks' will be showcased in the main Jubilee Hall. Paul Knight and Ian Cushway, editors of VolksWorld magazine and VWt magazine respectively, will also be in attendance.
Ticket details and further programming for the VolksWorld Show 2026 will likely be published closer to the event date. For more information, keep an eye on the official VolksWorld Show website.
