Winter Volksfest 18
February 22, 2025
All Volkswagen Car show and swap meet,
Held at the NC State Fairgrounds in Raleigh, NC
All Volkswagen Indoor Car Show & Swap meet.
In 2022, we moved to the Graham Building and packed it out! Over 200 show cars and 40 vendors filled the 90,000 sq foot building. Plenty of deals were made in the swap meet and lots of Beautiful Volkswagens filled the room.
This event is held in conjunction with our Southeast Eurofest on Sunday, although each event is separate. If you wish to enter the sunday event, you must register for that event as well.
Hope you can join us in Feb 2025!
