Eureka Springs Volkswagen Weekend 2021

Volkswagen fans and German car enthusiasts alike will not want to miss the 2021 Eureka Springs Volkswagen Weekend and Ozark Euro Rally. August 27th, 28th, and 29th, 2021.

Volkswagens have been popular since the early 1960’s and the Eureka Springs Volkswagen Weekend has been a local tradition since 1992. People come from all over the region every year to show off their own cars or to see all the gussied up VW’s.

So many folks and cars show up, in fact, that they had to make an overflow show, some years back. Then the overflow show grew so large that it earned its own name: the Eureka Springs Ozark Euro Rally. Though this event was originally just the VW-show overflow, it is now open to German cars of all types and has its own rabid fan-base of attendees.

The Eureka Springs Volkswagen Weekend is a three day event that includes a VW parts swap meet, car judging, awards, and a parade through Eureka Springs. Other events include an evening BBQ of pulled pork, and a cocktail party with live entertainment.

The annual VW Parade is always a good time and the standout event of the festival. The parade is a Mardi Gras-like affair with a huge variety of creatively decorated VW’s, lots of honking, and “throws” of beads, candy, and other trinkets for the crowd.

The VW weekend closes with a “Tourcade” driving tour through the beautiful Arkansas countryside. The tour includes the one-lane suspension bridge at Beaver, a pot-luck snack break at a lakeside park, and a stop at Beaver Lake Dam.
