Where: Frankenmuth, MI
The Festivities will start Friday the 10th of June 5pm on Main Street in front of Zehnders Restaurant. We will have a car show right on Main street for our VW's and Main Street will be shut down to all other traffic. It is a block party and we are at the center of it. VWOA will also be there with a display of all new cars and will be handing out swag. All show cars will receive a coupon for 1 free chicken dinner at Zehnders Restaurant. The Friday event starts at 5pm and goes till 10pm though most cars I assume will leave as the sun goes down though they don't have to leave until 10pm. Saturday we will have our actual Vintage Volkswagen Festival at the River Place right off of Main Street. It will run from 9am to 3pm or later depending, and we will have our Swap Meet as well. The Car Show will be to the back of Riverplace on the back field. The Swap Meet will be held to the right of the field at a parking lot. VWOA will have a display set up at the stage area in the middle of River Place. Sunday there is a very large and long parade through town. VWOA will have 3 cars in the parade on Sunday.
Michigan vacation destination with plenty of things to do. Great Restaurants, Shopping, Festivals and Events.

Madmike, Hope to see you there !
I forgot to mention that The MVVC Festitival is being held during the Frankenmuth Bavarian Festival Weekend. There will be lots of attendance from spectators, if your looking to book a motel / hotel room, now is the time to get a reservation.
Don't forget to bring your traditional German attire of lederhosen and dirndl dresses!

The Michigan Vintage Volkswagen Festival 2022 was a Big Hit !
1st year in Frankenmuth, Michigan during the Bavarian Festival, Weather was Perfect !... German Town, Autos, Entertainment, Food & Beer what more could you ask for !
Friday Nite Block Party had 30 Spaces available and it filled up fast !... Some coming late had to be turned away but next year's will have more space available. Good display of Volkswagen's and a lot of spectator foot traffic.
Saturday's Show & Swap had another Perfect weather day, a lot of vehicles on display ... Swap Meet was a little slim but room for improvement next year !
Great Event and look forward to next year's return.
