The city of Cape Town has officially announced that it will be staging the first Cape Town International Motor Show (CTMS) early next year.
The inaugural CTMS will be staged 27-29 January 2017 at the Sun GrandWest. 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. Attendees are also promised 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, and more.
The organisers have set a target audience of more than 35 000 over the three days with an area that will span the length and breadth of the Sun GrandWest Entertainment World. Cape Town’s Executive Mayor; Patricia de Lille commented at the launch: “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.”
Marketing and promotions are planned to run in conjunction with the local and national press, television, two radio partners, social media platforms and promotional flags across the city.
