The Camper Jam festival will be held for the seventh time at Weston Park, near Cosford. After growing from humble beginnings it is now one of the most loved VW shows of the year and is expected to attract thousands of people.

People will be travelling from all over the UK and Europe to soak up the party atmosphere from July 4 to July 6.

Organisers say Camper Jam is aimed at owners and lovers of the VW bus in all its model and types.

Shelley Bond, event manager, said: "Camper Jam takes the idea of the VW weekend right back to basics – great people in great buses having a great time.

"Weston's acres of rolling parkland give this show a festival vibe all of its own."

Visitors can camp as a club, a family or with friends or visit for the day.

Highlights will include VW displays, trade areas, food village filled with unique food and drink traders, live bands every night and fancy dress parties including this year's theme – Onesies and Neverland.

This year the show will welcome NAVI, the world's number 1 Michael Jackson tribute, and there will also be a VW Kids Club, entertainers, a complete fun fair, treasure hunts and a full activity programme to keep youngsters occupied.
