FurgoVolkswagen 2019 celebrates its 16th edition in Sant Pere Pescador

The 16th edition of the FurgoVolkswagen 2019 has arrived loaded with new features and activities for its more than 730 vans.

This weekend the 16th edition of the FurgoVolkswagen is taking place. According to the organizers, registration figures have foreshadowed a great turnout, and indeed more than 730 vans, of all ages, have signed up through the website created specifically for the event.

It is called Come with your Furgo and you still have time to attend. Advance registration figures are much higher than those of the previous edition, and it is very possible that the FurgoVolkswagen will achieve a new attendance record.

730 vans in Sant Pere Pescador

The brand’s vans, whether Volkswagen Transporter from different generations or the Volkswagen Caravelle, are the object of desire of many drivers. To celebrate this passion together, they gather annually in Sant Pere Pescador to exhibit and enjoy their already legendary vehicles.

For more than six decades these vans have been travelling across the globe. The FurgoVolkswagen 2019 aims for attendees to make the most of the good weather, the proposed activities and, above all, their vehicles outdoors.

The La Ballena Alegre Campsite will showcase, first-hand, all generations of the Volkswagen Transporter. The German brand states that “attendees will be able to trace the origins of the brand with the historic models, turned into true collector’s gems thanks to the meticulous and patient work of their owners”.

Volkswagen Grand California, star of the brand’s future

The brand’s future this year will be represented by the Volkswagen Grand California, “a new camper model with which Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles fully enters the camper segment of large vehicles. The new Grand California, based on the Crafter, will arrive in Spain in two different versions and has all the comforts for family travel. Attendees at the FurgoVolkswagen will have the opportunity to see the model for the first time in Spain before it reaches dealerships”, the German brand says.

“In addition to showing its latest launch, Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles will put on sale a limited edition of 16 units of the California 30 Anniversary, one for each edition of the gathering. These 16 vehicles feature unique equipment and special financing conditions, and can only be purchased during the weekend of 31 May to 2 June within the framework of the gathering”.

FurgoVolkswagen 2019, what activities are scheduled?

The attendees of the 16th edition of the FurgoVolkswagen 2019 will be able to enjoy open-air cinema, live concerts, beach yoga classes, a treasure hunt and a craft workshop, among others. These activities join the already traditional beach barbecue, the costume contest and the parade through the town.

“The gathering will once again feature two luxury ambassadors this year: Gisela Pulido, 10-time world Kitesurfing champion; and Horacio Llorens, 6-time world aerobatic paragliding champion, who will put on a demonstration for all attendees on Saturday afternoon”, conclude the organizers at Volkswagen.
