Overdrive Festival 2014

26 September 2014 By Port Elizabethan

Based at the Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium and various venues in and around Port Elizabeth city, the Overdrive Festival event looks ready to set a new benchmark for an all-inclusive, hands-on experience unlike anything else on the African continent.

The main organiser is TV celebrity Ian von Memerty, of Strictly Come Dancing and South Africa’s Got Talent fame, who has made the city his home.

The event, from 19 to 24 September will include the Boardwalk Hotel and Conference Centre, the soccer stadium, Aldo Scribante race circuit, and oval track racing circuit. There will be spinning, drifting, drag racing, a 4×4 extreme offroad experience, high-performance driving courses and a motorbike trip through the Baviaanskloof area. There will also be an opportunity to drive around Scribante with champion track drivers.
