What Is National Bongo Day?

On 8th May 1995 the first Mazda Bongo Friendee rolled off the production line in Japan and we are going to celebrate its 25th anniversary. The weekend of 8th May has been declared a UK public holiday to celebrate VE day, so Sunday 10th is an ideal day for us to get together and raise our glasses to the best camper/MPV still on the road today!

What we have in mind is this. A series of day-meetings will be held around the UK starting mid-morning and running through to mid-afternoon. There will be no formal agenda; it will be an opportunity for Bongo owners and fans to meet up, socialise and have a good old chat. Children and dogs are very welcome!

This is a joint operation between Bongo Fury and the various Facebook groups. Membership is not required to attend one of the events and everyone attending will receive a souvenir sticker free of charge. Event organisers will also receive a free gift as a sign of Bongo Fury’s appreciation.

The events will be publicised via the Bongo Fury club’s website, newsletter and email updates, and also via Facebook and other online channels.

That's great there are such people, like you, who provide events like this. It's cool, because you present a holiday to every member of this "festival".
