VW Breakout 17-19 May 2024

What to Expect:

Drag Racing and Track Action

The weekend kicks off with adrenaline-pumping drag racing. Witness the return of the legendary Doorslammers drag racing, a nod to the golden era of the 1970s and 1980s, now back with a substantial prize fund and updated format. Participants can test their mettle on Friday, with qualifying rounds and eliminations scheduled for Saturday and Sunday. Those eager to join the race can purchase Race Vouchers online, but remember, an Admission ticket is essential for entry.

Show & Shine Competition

The Show & Shine competition is a highlight for VW enthusiasts. With categories ranging from Best Custom and Best Exterior to Best Engine and more, it’s a chance to showcase prized VWs and maybe even take home a trophy. Vehicle owners can bring their cars to the Show Car Paddock on Sunday morning to participate.

Live Music and Entertainment

As the sun sets, the festival atmosphere lights up with live music across two stages. Enjoy performances from bands like The All New Blues and Soul Revue, Miami Vibe, and Women In Rock, along with a plethora of DJs spinning diverse genres from classic house to ska. It’s a perfect backdrop for evening fun and dancing.

Meanwhile, adults can explore a variety of traders, grab a bite at diverse food stalls, or enjoy a drink at the bar. Don’t miss the thrilling shows like the Fireforce 3 Jet Car and Podzilla Monster Truck, or the historic flypast by WWII planes.
