VW Festival is at Harewood house. I went to the first few VW Festivals and were ok, it used to be a day show but I think you can camp now. http://www.vwfestival.co.uk/

Tatton is more air-cooled I think, but I've never been. http://www.vwnw.co.uk/index2.htm

The Leeds do is quite a nice do. Your ticket gets you entry also to Harewood House and the bird garden. The VW element is the usual sort of stuff but there's a big beer tent and the loos were the best temporary loos I've ever seen when I went 2 years ago!!!! Worth going just for them.
I'm going this year with the Mk2 and the Mk6. Thinking of selling the Mk2 so I might stick a big notice in the window and see what happens.

The Leeds event is a good do - I used to go a couple of years ago and show my MKIV GTi.

Lots of stuff across the VW range plus a healthy dose of countryside, the stately home and bird garden. You're as close to Harrogate as you are the the centre of Leeds, so cna take your pick from either if you (or the missus) want somewhere elso to go en route.
