ON its 12th year, the Cebu Auto Show (CAS) promises show-goers they would “Experience Fun and Function” as the event brings together elements that hallmark a topnotch auto spectacle.
More than a typical car show, CAS through the years has made a lasting impression on automotive enthusiasts. It fosters B2B connections, as well as nurtures the enthusiasm of the public toward cars and all things related to the automotive scene. No doubt, the CAS is the region’s most influential auto show.
Here are six great attractions at the event:

This year’s RC Drift event will gather members of the Philippine RC Drifters; around 15 of them will participate in the challenge. Other enthusiasts from Manila and Cebu will be conducting displays and demonstrations, as well hold the 1/10 scale RC Bodyshell contest.

Diecast car model swap meet
Established in 2009, the Cebu Diecast Car Collectors now include members from neighboring Visayan Islands. At the event, the group not only aims to establish their identity in the local diecast car collecting scene but also promote diversity and foster camaraderie among collectors.
From hosting their event at the SM City Cebu’s north wing parking grounds and Atrium to leveling up as they are set to hold their gathering at the Skyhall of the SM City Seaside, the Cebu Diecast Car Collectors have surely come a long way from their humble beginnings.
