Cofton's Air-Cooled Car Show Weekender

About

Slowly cruising down the Devon coastline with an air-cooled engine has a unique magic. Meeting other classic campers as you roll through the winding lanes, Cofton will be opening its gates to retro vehicle enthusiasts for long sunny afternoons with live music and a chilled out carshow vibe. A new event near Dawlish will celebrate this lifestyle over a long weekend next month.

This June, Cofton Holidays will host the very first Air-Cooled Car Show Weekender - a three-day celebration of classic air-cooled motors, relaxed camper culture and laid-back beachside living in South Devon. Taking place near Dawlish from the 19th-21st of June, this event is open to any restored VW campers and iconic Beetles, classic Porsches, funky Citroëns and other cars with a classic air-cooled engine.

This weekend escape is more than just a car show. Any Visitors can bring a camper van, camp or stay in Cofton's award-winning accommodation and soak up everything the location has to offer, including indoor and outdoor swimming pools, an onsite pub, a noted restaurant and even their own Chippy if you want to get some golden crispy battered food to enjoy vanside.
The event programme features 2 whole days of entertainment and activities, with the main show day taking place on Sunday. Saturday starts with a chilled-out cruise to Teignmouth and back, live bands, food stalls, trade stands and, of course, a Show & Shine competition. As the evening sets in, the atmosphere warms up into festival mode with outdoor live music under canvas, an open bar and happy campers gathering to enjoy the stars of South Devon's designated 'Dark Sky' area.
