Frequently Asked Questions
What the heck is a WINTERFEST?
WINTERFEST is the highlight winter event for the Porsche Club of America TN Region. It consists of a Street Level Concours, a drive-out, a banquet, and more. You'll have the chance to show off your Porsche in an amazing indoor venue, right next to other Porsche fans and their beloved rides. There will be a curated drive through the twisty Chattanooga roads with some mountains thrown in for good measure, catered meals, and a banquet with some great food and prizes.
Most of all, you'll get the chance to hang out with fellow Porsche people, and isn't that what this is all about?
Where does this all take place?
The primary venue for WINTERFEST is the VW Chattanooga Assembly Plant Conference Center located at 8001 Volkswagen Dr, Chattanooga, TN, 37416. This facility features ultra-high CRI lighting to make your car look its best, and with capacity for nearly 1,000 people, your cars will have room to be seen and enjoyed.
The drive-out will depart and arrive back to VW on Saturday prior to the banquet.
The WINTERFEST banquet will be at Porsche of Chattanooga, who will be graciously hosting us, once again. They are located at 2915 Yerbey Dr, Chattanooga, TN, 37421 - a mere 5 minutes from VW.
