by Cornwall Volkswagen Owners Club and is one of the longest running
club shows in the UK, it has been around since 1986 and is now in it's
23rd year. Last
years show saw a huge jump in the number of visitors, we estimate
around 9500 attended. The event is supported by aircooled
and watercooled enthusiasts alike and we hope to be able to offer
something for everyone. This years Jamboree
will again be held at it's regular venuw, Stithians Agricultural
Showground, near Falmouth, only a few
