... I stood in between 6000 Volkswagen vans!
After 16 years, VW Germany finally has organised an VW van meeting again! They wanted to celebrate the 75th birthday of the VW Bulli van! But due to covid, the had to postpone it for two years!
And finally this year it went on, The VW Bus Festival 2023 in Hannover Germany!
I cleaned out my van, witch I had not don since my trip to Spain, and drove off to Hannover! It was a 4 and a half hour drive and on the way there I saw a lot of VW van's who also were heading out to Hannover! A couple of kilometers before the venue, there were so many VW vans around that we were driving in a convoy to the entrance! that was so cool! To bad I couldn't make any pictures or film that convoy! It was raining incredible hard and I am travelling alone so nobody in the van that could assist me!
A couple of friends of mine had arrived at the campsite the day before and they had saved a nice spot for me!
The event took place at the Hannover Messe, a big event terrain with gigantic exhibition hall's were all kinds of Bully's were shown to public! From the oldest VW van there is...
...until the newts ID.buzz
I am not really a fan of new cars but I do think I like this new style. although, they are pretty small! But there were a few nice special editions on display! like these Star Wars editions!
I think a bit to shiny for me! And to shiny for other road users, especially when it's sunny!😋
This high-tech mobile broadcast unite from 1956 was one of my favorite old vans there! So cool to see that old broadcasting equipment!
And then i mean my favorite driveble VW there, there was one that I thought was even better.
this one s made completely out of Lego! So freaking cool!
And this play mobile advertisement is also a cool car!
I really wonder if this is the original VW where this play set is based on!
Here some other cars in the main exhibition hall!
They were that special the the could go on the red carpet!
Outside were also many different cars on display! like this original fire truck! the owner told me about the many years of restoration I took him to get it back in original state!
And so many other beautifully restored cars!
This one was awesome, but I doubt that they drive over the public road in this!
completely sticky taped together!
The organisation was pretty good! they had a big main stage were the had all kinds of performance! And events, like a show and shine! If you had a nice shiny car, you could drive over the podium to show him to the public! To bad I have missed that, but I do was there for the party!
There were a couple of famous German artists preforming all night! i did not knew them ofcours but the atmosphere was pretty cool!
Not the whole party, because it was a long day! We went to the campsite and from there enjoy the light show!
