Bug Jam Festival

Jul 2009 (annual)

Santa Pod Raceway celebrates the VW Beetle by dedicating a festival to the iconic car. Bug Jam Festival hosts Drag Racing Beetles, Drag Racing Demos, the Run What You Brung event plus loads of live music and comedy.

There's lots of motoring tricks to watch, plus the seven-second doorslammer of Super Modified, road legal hot rods of the Street Eliminator Series and the vintage Fords of Outlaw Anglia, Sportsman ET.

Look out for the Demo Cars, the Fireforce 3 Jet Car, Freestyle Motorcross and the Monster Trucks trail of destruction.

The Run What You Brung event invites VW owners to bring their own vehicles and race around the track as many times as they want!

When you've had enough of VWs for a day, see live bands perform, ride on the funfair, skate on the ice-rink, or watch stand-up comedians do their stuff.
