25th anniversary
Gumball 3000 rally
Saigon to Singapore
To celebrate the 25th Anniversary of Gumball 3000, we curated a once-in-a-lifetime adventure, guiding 120 cars from Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, through Phnom Penh and Siem Reap in Cambodia, before continuing to Bangkok and Krabi in Thailand, Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia, and culminating in a spectacular weekend of celebrations in Singapore during Formula 1 weekend.
This rally represented the most logistically complex undertaking in Gumball 3000’s history, featuring some of the largest-scale event production to date. Key logistical challenges included importing vehicles from around the world into Vietnam, managing four demanding border crossings along the route, arranging temporary vehicle imports into Singapore under strict regulations, and navigating foreign road networks often unsuitable for low-riding supercars.
Event production highlights included a two-day celebration in the heart of Ho Chi Minh City, a massive concert in Phnom Penh attended by hundreds of thousands of fans, and an exclusive gala and charity auction at Bayon Temple in Angkor Wat, Cambodia—a culturally and historically significant site requiring the support and permission of national leaders.
