What started as a small event called VANFEST in 1994 at The Three counties Showground, Malvern, the annual BUSFEST event has grown to become the world’s LARGEST INTERNATIONAL BUSFESTIVAL event for owners, lovers and enthusiasts of Volkswagen Transporter Van’s.

This coming BUSFEST 2024 we will be celebrating our 30th birthday of putting on events at the Malvern Three Counties Showground, those years being split across VANFEST & BUSFEST. Though BUSFEST & VANFEST are far from the only events we have been a part of, our passionate crew have been active members of the Volkswagen scene for decades and have worked with multiple shows to put on events for something they’re so enthusiastic about.

Why come to BUSFEST?

BUSFEST is the fun loving & family friendly event of the year for all VW lovers or just people who want to have a great weekend – so if you’re NOT into your rusty campers, your loud off-roading 4×4’s, or your super plush vintage classics – BUSFEST is a fantastic event for everybody. BUSFEST has so much to offer, from the extensive Trade Village, a massive fun fair, daytime entertainment ranging from kids activities to a full blown stunt show – not to mention the SEVEN stages we have for all our evening entertainment!

If you are like us and you’re utterly obsessed with everything VW then this is absolutely the place to be – with displays showcasing some of the very best around, vehicle sales areas if you’re on the hunt for a new project, our autojumble if you’re missing a piece for said project, The Syncro Trial for those who like to put theirs to the test, or our Show & Shine competition for those who want to show off their hard work and the beauty that they’ve built.

Lets just say – there’s a reason we’re the world’s largest VW Transporter show and we hope you join us again (or for the first time) in September 2024 to celebrate our 30th year of putting on events.

“Fab festival for all enthusiasts and those who are simply enthusiastic!

So much to see and do for all ages, day and night.

If you’ve never been, you should give it a try!”
