Show n Shine

The GTI Festival Show & Shine has a massive number of awards including Best Audi, Best Skoda, Best SEAT, and Best VW, Best Engineering, Best Paint, Best Engine, Best Van and many more. There are also 'top twenty' trophies open to all marques.

Traders

Along with SPRINGfest, the GTI Festival is planned to be the very best one day show of its kind, and every effort is made to bring you a good selection of appropriate traders. Any companies using promotion staff / models are especially welcome, and we can arrange for multi show winning cars to visit your stand for public 'photoshoots'.

Autojumble

The GTI Festival Autojumble is - unlike many shows - absolutely free to show visitors wishing to sell their (private, not trade) VAG bits. All you need do is locate the huge autojumble area, and set out your wares. Spaces are on a first come, first served basis, until the entire area is full. And as it is now becoming difficult to locate certain parts for older watercooled models, it's well worth visiting to browse or buy, even if you are not planning to be selling at the show. Traders should book a trade plot.

Girlz N Dubz

Girlz N Dubz features the hottest cars and the coolest owners! Girlz N Dubs kicked off at the ‘VAGfest’ GTi Festival in July 2010, and was an immediate success. It’s worth noting straight away that all cars entered into the Girlz N Dubz competition are automatically included in the main Show & Shine, and will be judged alongside the regular Show & Shine, in addition to being considered for the many Girlz N Dubz trophies. We expect the Girlz N Dubz display to grow and grow, and after a good start last year, we are confident that the competition will be strong and the number of contestants will grow each year.

GTI Festival also features a special Girlz N Dubs 'Wildest Ride' award to the quickest female on the dragstrip during the event. The Girlz N Dubs 'Wildest Ride' trophy will be contested between all girlz, (whether or not they also have a show car in the Girlz N Dubz contest.) Normal signing on fees apply.

Dizzy Rascals

And they said drag racers don't do bends. Introduced in 2010, and free to take part, is the totally insane ‘Dizzy Rascals’ course. A course which is a combination of ‘double roundabouts, straights and chicanes, and which was such a runaway success last July. It was all a bit bonkers, a bit ‘anarchic’, but lots of fun for contestants and spectators alike. The course is very suited to short wheelbase front wheel cars, but 2010 saw everything from Lupos to Transporters having a go at driving the day’s fastest lap, for which a trophy was awarded. There was a constant line of participants, the squeal of tyres, and the crowded spectator area. One car on the track at a time, against the clock, with awards for the fastest boyz and girlz! It’s a completely untried combination of sprint and autotest, it’s free, and you just have to give it a go!
