The Gaborone Motor Show (GMS) is back and it’s louder, faster, and more exciting than ever. Marking its 10th anniversary, Botswana’s premier automotive event returns on the 5th and 6th of September 2025, transforming The Fields Mall in Gaborone CBD into a full-blown motoring playground. More than just a car display, GMS 2025 is a celebration of passion, people, and how far Botswana’s car culture has come in the past decade.
The Fields Mall offers a spacious venue that allows for the display of a wide range of vehicles from sleek passenger cars to heavy-duty commercial machines. Its central location and easy accessibility make it an ideal space for an event of this scale and energy.
Advance tickets are available via Webtickets at P100 (single day), P150 (two-day pass), and P200 (family triple pack). At the gate, entry will be P150. Children under 12 pay P50, and those under 7 enter for free.
With over 30,000 Facebook followers and 25,000 page likes, the GMS community continues to grow proof of its loyal fan base and national impact. The buildup to the show will include an Activation Weekend, where GMS Promotion Girls will hit the streets and shopping malls of Gaborone to engage directly with the public. These brand ambassadors have become a vital part of the show’s identity helping to promote event info, build excitement, and guide visitors throughout the two-day occasion.
Get ready for a supercar showcase like no other. Petrolheads and dreamers alike can expect to see top-tier exotic machines like the Porsche 911 GT3, Lamborghini Huracán, and a thrilling lineup of BMW M-Performance beasts. These high-performance icons will be exhibited alongside tuned street builds and luxury cruisers delivering a full spectrum of what speed, power, and engineering excellence look like up close. Whether it’s for selfies, engine roars, or inspiration these cars will steal the show.
The 2025 edition brings together a powerhouse lineup of exhibitors. Naledi Motors takes center stage with elite Mercedes-Benz models like the roaring G63 AMG and the stylish V-Class. Molapo Motors showcases the bold Jeep Wrangler Rubicon and the refined Grand Cherokee. NMI Botswana presents the rugged INEOS Grenadier, while Mahindra Botswana (through Gabs Motors) highlights hard-working classics like the Bolero Pik-Up and Scorpio. Hi Range Safari City and the Canopy Centre bring the off-road spirit to life with performance accessories and customization services tailored to Southern African terrain.
Beyond the show floor, visitors can expect a wide range of hands-on activations: 4×4 test tracks, VR driving simulators, and live vehicle demos. For serious buyers, the show offers on-the-spot financing, dealership promotions, and the rare opportunity to compare top brands side-by-side. The event will also feature a tech and innovation zone, spotlighting
Botswana-made engineering solutions, tertiary student projects, and start-up inventions proving that the future of Botswana’s auto industry is homegrown and rising.
GMS has always been more than a car show; it’s a platform for economic growth, community exposure, and cultural storytelling. Small businesses like wrap artists, sound installers, and aftermarket modifiers have long used the event to build clientele and establish a presence in the competitive market. Meanwhile, sponsors like Shell Botswana are leveraging their presence to raise awareness on sustainability, fuel technology, and energy-efficient mobility solutions.
The GMS Organizing Team calls this 10th edition a love letter to the community that has powered the event over the past decade. Longtime exhibitors like Hi Range Safari City are promising surprises and exclusive vehicle reveals that could redefine Botswana’s off-road scene.
Whether you’re a gearhead, a weekend explorer, a future automotive designer, or a parent looking for an exciting day out with the kids, GMS 2025 is the event to attend. From concept cars and modified beasts to rev battles, giveaways, and expert-led activations this is where passion meets performance.
