All the finest cities in the world have one: Frankfurt, Paris, Tokyo, Dubai and New York – so it was only a matter of time before Cape Town would finally announce its own national show entitled The CAPE TOWN MOTOR SHOW (CTMS).
The inaugural CTMS will take place over the last weekend of January 2017 (27 to 29) at the Sun GrandWest, promising a weekend of incredible fun with a broad appeal to all car and bike buffs, petrolheads and, in fact, the entire family, with loads of entertainment.
Exhibitions will include: multiple world- and South African introductions; a complete range of domestic and imported passenger cars, bikes and trucks; sport utility vehicles; and experimental or concept cars. Additionally, attendees will have the opportunity to see numerous accessories and auto-related exhibits, competition vehicles, antique and collector cars, engine modifications (pimped-up rides), Sound-Off Beats competitions, virtual simulations, car wrapping, drifting, a large 4X4 outside area, live music and much more!
The show will span the length and breadth of the Sun GrandWest Entertainment World, including the Market Hall, Grand Arena, the Sun Exhibit area, the Sun Garden area, outdoor 4X4 areas, drifting zone, bike zone, and Classic and Vintage car displays.
The show’s launch took place this week and Cape Town’s Executive Mayor; Patricia de Lille had this to say, “I believe that Cape Town is ready to embrace a motor show of our own that can rival international equivalents. I am pleased to see that this is being planned as a family-oriented event that will attract tens of thousands of people over the 3-day period, bringing motor enthusiasts from throughout Cape Town and surrounds to enjoy the show. The CTMS will also stimulate the local economy by creating jobs through sales, set builds and the involvement of all the national car manufacturers and event professionals from the first show onwards. It is commendable that CTMS will also be giving back to the community by supporting the Mannenberg Upliftment project and the Cities Rescue Services, and as well as inviting school children from key areas to attend the show free of charge on the first day of the Show.”
Claire Cobbledick, Marketing manager of Gumtree, who are one of the many partners in the CTMS said “Cape Town is a core Gumtree market and we enjoy the most visited online showroom in SA so this partnership was a perfect fit for the brand. We look forward to this inaugural event.’
This thing sounds like it’s going to be mental.
