Day of the Volkswagen
2nd December 2012 from 9.30am Taylors Reserve, South Perth

The Shannons Day of the Volkswagen is the biggest show of the year in the WA Volkswagen Calendar. Each year it is held on the first Sunday in December - for 2012 that is the 2nd December. We thank Shannons Insurance for their continued support and sponsorship of this event for over 10 years now.

The Shannons Day of the Volkswagen is open to both members and the public, to show their VW's or to come along and have a look. It is not restricted to VW branded vehicles, as all vehicles belonging to the VW family (Karmann Ghia, Audi, and Skoda to name a few) are welcome!

The Shannons Day of the Volkswagen has moved to Taylor Reserve (adjacent to McCallum Park). A shorter show will see gates open from 9:30am to 11:00am for entry with the show running from 11:00am to approx. 3.00pm on the day. Trophy presentations commence 2:00pm, at the conclusion of which gates will re-open for exiting. Gates locked for the safety of all patrons at the show.

Vehicle entry is $10, while the public can come have a look for free. There will be a Show and Shine, a new vehicle display, a swap meet and a show bag for the first 100 cars through the gate. The day will include kids activities and of course refreshments - a coffee van, sausage sizzle, and ice cream van. So come along and help make the Shannons Day of the Volkswagen in WA the best in the country!
