We’ve set up a VWFC Mexico Away Travel WhatsApp Community Channel to help keep everyone informed and connected while in Mexico City.
This channel will be used for:
- ✅ Real-time updates from the club
- ✅ Supporter/Fan meet-up info
We encourage all travelling fans to join the channel before arrival to stay in the loop:
