To our FuelFest Family,

You all are aware of how FuelFest started - or the precursor to FuelFest - as a tribute to our brother Paul. The outpouring of support our family received after his passing was nothing short of staggering, and his influence in the automotive enthusiast world was felt and still is to this day. He inspired you, and us, to accelerate our dreams, and give back along the way.

After a series of incredible events in Paul’s honor from 2014 through 2018, it was time to do more. Yes, for Reach Out WorldWide (ROWW), which he created and we continue to run and support, but also for the automotive, racing and music enthusiast. A natural combination.

Our goal? Create a place, even if for a day, where all walks of life can come together and celebrate their love of horsepower. Display hot, exciting and innovative cars – from backyard projects to the latest hypercars, show off (responsibly) with live action motorsports, experience new trends, learn about new companies and products and mix that in with awesome music – DJs, live acts – and of course some special guests!

How it all came together in a post-pandemic world is a testament to the faith, will and strength of our team, and every single attendee, company and artist that has joined us in the past, and those that continue to ride on this road with us.

And our journey has just begun. FuelFest has become a driving force for automotive culture. We, together, are the influencers, the educators and are spreading automotive – and charitable – love to all.

We are all headed to the same destination – FuelFest the unforgettable experience. The place where you want to come, where you can spend time with like-minded enthusiasts, enjoy some amazing music and know that you’re not just friends – you’re family.

And there’s more planned as we move forward. More experiences at events, more opportunities to give back, more to see year-round on our social channels, more partnerships and brands that you’ll love and more surprises that are uniquely “FuelFest.”

So get those cars tuned, hit the open road and come to FuelFest!

Thank you for being a part of our FuelFest family,
