• The 11th Beetle Sunshine Tour begins at the Baltic Sea on 21 August
• Grand fringe programme for the whole family under the motto “Fun in the Sun”
• Every year the fan fest entices more than 1000 visitors to the Brügmanngarten festival lawns
From 21 to 23 August, Europe’s largest Beetle fan community will be meeting for the eleventh time on Travemünde beach. The organiser Gaby Kraft has already received more than 440 registrations – a new record. Volkswagen has been involved in the Beetle Sunshine Tour as a sponsor for a number of years and in 2015 will be presenting the Beetle “Pink”. In April, the eye-catching concept car caused a furore at the New York Auto Show.
As a fitting tribute to the new Marketing Manager of Volkswagen, Robbie Williams, Germany’s most frequently booked Robbie Williams cover band “Supreme RW” will be playing live on the Sunshine Tour stage on Saturday evening. In July 2011, lead singer Mario Nowack won the casting show ‘My Name Is’ on RTL 2 and was voted Germany’s best Robbie Williams imitator by the viewers. Also on the programme are the live bands “Urban Beach” and “SuperBrass”, who helped to create that genuine beach feeling last year.
On Saturday, enthusiasts will be setting off together with their Beetles, New Beetles or classic Beetles on an excursion along the Baltic Sea. Following this, Sidney Hoffmann, well-known throughout Germany as the presenter of PS Profis, and the German rapper MC Fitti will be commenting on the most attractive Beetles and their special features as they arrive in Brügmanngarten. A fun time is guaranteed!
Anyone wishing to see the “Beetle Pink”, to celebrate to live music with MC Fitti and Sidney Hoffmann, to enjoy the extensive fringe programme for the whole family and/or to take part in the Beetle Sunshine Tour in their own Beetle will find information on the www.beetle.sunshinetour.de website. This website also offers the opportunity to book a place in the excursion. The Beetle Sunshine Tour starts 6 pm on Friday, 21 August on the Brügmanngarten festival lawns in Travemünde. Those not taking part in the drive are cordially invited to turn up at any time.
