About the South Florida Get Together (SFLGTG)

The South Florida Get Together was created in January of 2001 by South Florida VW enthusiast Justin Miller, who was looking to organize a group of VW and Audi enthusiasts that could casually meet every couple of months. From those meager beginnings of three VW Passat owners hanging out in a parking lot in Deerfield Beach came one of the largest and fastest growing VW/Audi events in the United States.

Today, the South Florida Get Together is held annually and attendance has soared to over 1200 people and 600 cars. The event was once a small informal get-together held wherever the group could find a spot, and today it is a day-long event held at major venues in sunny South Florida. From the humble crowd of a few VW/Audi enthusiasts, the event has now drawn hundreds of VW and Audi enthusiasts from all over the world. While the main draw of the event is the numerous cars representing decades of VW and Audi models, the event also includes an all-you-can-eat BBQ, an extensive line of vendor booths, a raffle, and more. And best of all - unlike other large events - everyone gets together in a fun, non-competitive, no-pressure environment.
