VolksWorld – 25th Birthday Party

Posted by Jon on 15 August, 2012

VolksWorld celebrates its 25th Birthday at Brands Hatch on 20th September 2012. Why not join us?

 

VolksWorld has been reporting on the world of air-cooled VWs for the last two and a half decades and, to celebrate, we are having a party at Brands Hatch motor racing circuit in Kent on Thursday September 20th  2012. So why not come and join in our celebrations, meet up with some old mates and make new ones, too? It’s FREE  to get in (you need to buy your own food and drink), and we have lots of things going on to keep you entertained. The party starts at 15.00hrs, so make sure you arrive early and finishes around 23.00.

The first 500 to register in advance will get a free party bag and a chance to win £500.00 worth VW related goodies.

Entry to the event is free and, although you can just turn up on the night, we ask you to register in advance to help us with the organisation. Register HERE. Once you have registered we will send you an anniversary sticker and event programme by return, your party bag will be at the gate when you arrive. You might even win £500 worth of VW-related goodies, so don’t delay, do it today.

What’s going on?

Photo opportunity on the start / finish straight.

We will be lining up as many air-cooled VWs on the main straight at Brands Hatch as we can for a once-in-a-lifetime photo opportunity that will then be made into a poster and be given away free with the December 2012 issue of VolksWorld. To make sure you are part of VW history, remember to tick the ‘car line up box’ when you register. We will send you a line-up sticker to put in your car window. Positioning of cars commences at 17.00 so make sure you arrive in plenty of time.

Music in The Kentagon Bar
The Vision Tech Beats band, well known in VW circles, will headline our indoor entertainment, backed up by DJ Louis Newbury. Music will be from 17.00 to 23.00. A pay for bar and reasonably priced food will be available all evening.

Cool Flo
Cool Flo will be bringing their fine collection of Buses and laying on entertainment suitable for a warm summer evening. They always put on a good show, so make sure you stop by and say hello.

Drive ‘n’ Shine
We always love to see great cars being driven to events, so we will be picking the best cars out for an award. There’s no need to enter, just turn up, and if you find a sticker on your car, your VW will be one of the Winners!  You may even win Raddest Ride.

How low can you go?
Our laser measuring man will be out and about checking how low your ride is. You could win the award for Sickest Slam or Asphalt Assassin!

Party Bags
We will be giving away free party bags to the first 500 people that
pre-register for the event. Enter your details HERE and let us know if you wish to take part in the car line up on the start / finish straight and we will send you a 25th anniversary sticker in advance. Your party bag will be waiting at the gate.
