TWIN CITIES VW CLUB

We're Minnesota's Largest VW Club

About Us

The Twin Cities VW Club is a registered non-profit organization, run voluntarily by enthusiasts, for enthusiasts.

We invite all persons interested in Volkswagens to join our club. Unlike many organizations, we don't place restrictions on VW ownership (daily driver, collectable, watercooled, AirCooled or no VWs). We have many events throughout the year where you can meet enthusiasts with similar VW interests. Our goal is to provide the resources to help you enjoy your Volkswagen to the fullest degree.

Many of the most common questions are answered in our Frequently Asked Questions page.

Our Mission

The Twin Cities VW Club mission is to pride a fun and informal place to share your Volkswagen Enthusiasm. Because we all have busy lives, we strive to have our events in typically "lower priority" times (meetings and cruise events are normally 7:00 Wednesdays and Bug Ins are on Sundays) this allows you to have your hobby and a home life too. We welcome all interested to join even if you don't own a VW.

What We Do

The Twin Cities VW Club meets monthly on the first Wednesday of the month. Our club cosponsors the annual Bug-In with Westside Volkswagen. Various members host local activities such as: Swap Meets, Bug-Ins, Dinner Cruises and Holiday Parties.

Who Can Join

We invite everyone to join our organization. Your Volkswagen doesn't have to be a bone-stock original model, nor does it have to be a show-winning Volkswagen. You don't have to own a Volkswagen to be a member! The majority of our members are simply in the Twin Cities VW Club for fun and educational purposes.

Club Dues
