Hundreds of classic cars head to Newquay, Cornwall for the car, music and comedy weekend which has been going for 22 years.

The dates for 2009 are confirmed as Friday 22nd to Monday 25th May 2009.

This is really a VW Owners Festival (so look forward to lots of classic cars showing up) but there are also loads of DJs and up-and-coming bands across four arenas.

The band line-up with Scary Dave as compere includes Rudi's Message, on Friday. Saturday has Vicious Disco, and Hobo Jones & The Junk Yard Dogs. Sunday has 4 tons of Funk.

The DJ line-up for all three days has been announced with Pendulum (El Hornet DJ set) & MC Jakes, Grooverider, Skream, and Benga playing the first night. Saturday has Judge Jules, Dave Pearce, John 00 Flemming, and Ben McGowan taking to the decks. Sunday sees Hed Kandi, Phil Faversham, Dean Rigg, Sam Cannon, accompanied by The Lovely Laura on Saxophone and Pav on Percussion, with a Live PA from Tara McDonald.

The confirmed acts for the comedy line-up includes Christian Reilly, Martin Soan, Pierre Hollins, Ian Cognito, Gary Delaney, and Craig Campbell.

Early bird tickets are priced at £75 for adults and £37.50 for children, with an additional £6 charge for a VW field ticket. Tickets are available by phoning 01637 851851 or buy them online by clicking here.

The festival will be showing films during the day time and late into Sunday night. New for 2009, is a VW only camping area for enthusiasts, a silent disco on Friday & Saturday night, a brand new Shakin Shack bar on Smugglers with a huge outside decked area. The car park will also be a complete no car zone, with more day time activities and traders.

More information will be here when available.
