Can I Come Even if I Don’t Own a VW? Absolutely! One of the most common misconceptions is that Bayfield Volkfest is exclusively for VW owners. Well, let’s set the record straight – this event is open to all, regardless of whether you own a VW or not. It’s a gathering of kindred spirits who share a passion for all things VW. So, if you’ve ever admired the timeless charm of a VW bus or the iconic silhouette of a Beetle, this event is your golden ticket to immerse yourself in the world of vintage VWs.

Family-Friendly Fun Bayfield Volkfest isn’t just for adults; it’s a family-friendly affair. Bring the kids, the grandparents, and everyone in between. Watch children’s faces light up with joy as they enjoy face painting, games, and a mini VW car show designed just for them. It’s a day of bonding, laughter, and shared experiences.

The Volkfest Cruise: A Journey to Remember

But that’s not all! Sunday the cruise starts at Rock Glen Family Resort, where enthusiasts gather in the parking lot starting at 9 am. At 9:30 am, the cruise kicks off, taking you on a mesmerizing journey from Arkona through Thedford to Port Franks. As you continue north on Hwy 21, you’ll pass through The Pinery and Grand Bend, creating a scenic spectacle along the way. Finally, at around 10:30 am, the cruise culminates in Bayfield, just in time for the main event.

Spread the Word!

Tell all your friends who might want to join the cruise, or friends along the route who will want to watch and cheer as everyone drives by! It’s an opportunity to share the excitement and camaraderie of the Bayfield Volkfest experience with those who appreciate the charm of vintage VWs.
