April 13, 2025 - Kelley Park Spring Meet
Sann Jose, California
Facebook Twitter

The Golden Gate Chapter of the Vintage Volkswagen Club of America will be hosting their 40th Annual Spring Meet at History San Jose at Kelley Park in San Jose on Sunday, April 13 from 8 am to 3 pm. All air-cooled VW's are welcome.

All cars entering the park MUST register for the car show and MUST park in their respective class. There will be NO pre-registration for either the car show or swap. You will queue up in the bottom parking lot and pay at the gate and register your car at the club booth after you park your car inside the park. Because of park concerns with people leaving early in their cars before the show ends, we ask if you think you have to leave early that you please park your car outside and walk-in. If you would like to be a sponsor or a vendor, please contact Jan Peters at email synkro.digitalspacemail8.net or phone 650-207-1950 or Rick Spohn at [email protected] or phone 408-683-0154.

Please note there is NO alcohol, NO pets, and NO BBQ's allowed inside the park. These are park rules and must be obeyed. The park has asked us to make sure everyone packs up and leaves immediately after the show is over. This has become a problem in the past and has jeopardized our club to continue to have the show at the park.

The Holiday Inn Express located at 17035 Condit Road in Morgan Hill will be the host hotel. All you have to do is click on the link below and it will direct you to the reservation page. Enter the dates you want and it will give you a discounted rate.

What: VW Harvest Volkswagen Car Show
Why: To support the VW Community and Kiwanis of Silicon Hills
Who: VW Harvest/VW Life team

The VW Harvest began in 2010 at Southwest Regional Williamson County Park. It has been held every year at the park since with the exception of no shows in 2014 and 2020.

It is the largest VW car show in Texas, with over 300 classic Volkswagens in attendance.

It is a free show to all participants, there is no registration fee nor spectator fee.

The show is supported by many local, state, national and international businesses with donations to the raffle which sustain the show.

Top Notch Restaurant donates hot dogs and buns which the local Kiwanis Club prepares and then gives away to folks in attendance. They only ask for donations. It is by far the Kiwanis of Silicon Hills largest fundraiser each year which they put back into our community. The Kiwanis use local high school students as part of their service to the community.

The VW Harvest is a very fun, family friendly event with Hot Wheels races for the kids, a Kids Twinkie Eating contest and a fun home-made VW Valve Cover pinewood derby race.

It is promoted on the VW Life YouTube channel, which currently has 45,000 subscribers across the globe, the VW Life and VW Harvest Facebook and Instagram pages, as well as local newspapers and TV/radio stations.

The VW Harvest is a very special event held each year for families and friends to come together and enjoy a beautiful day in the park with their Volkswagens. All are welcome.
