Why events list with us

Enthusiasts in one paddock, all day

Car shows bring owners and enthusiasts together for the whole day. Mechanics, panelbeaters, tyre shops and car groomers want to be right there. List it and let them book.

  • Sponsors find you

    Local businesses browse what your event offers and ask to back it. No more committee members ringing round the same five businesses every year.

  • Every sponsorship priced

    A ribbon, a station, a prize or the whole naming rights, each with its own price and booked online. Nobody has to wait for a proposal.

  • Local businesses, local crowd

    The businesses that book want to be seen by car owners and enthusiasts, which is exactly who comes to your event.

What you can list

Trophies, the gate and the programme

How it works

It's this easy

  1. 1

    List it

    A photo and a price. Free.

  2. 2

    They find you

    A local advertiser books your space.

  3. 3

    Advert arrives

    It's sent to you or dropped in.

  4. 4

    Put it up

    Snap a quick photo so they know it's up.

  5. 5

    You beauty!

    All done. The money goes to your bank.

You never design or print a thing. The advert is always supplied to you.

Supporting local

Every booking gives to a charity you choose.

Pick a local cause that matters to you, and every time a business books one of your sponsorships a donation goes to it. It never comes out of your pocket.

Does it cost anything to list?

No. Listing is free, there is no monthly fee and no lock-in contract. You are paid the full price you set.

What should we charge?

Up to you. Most NZ events never publish prices, so having every sponsorship priced and bookable online already puts you ahead. Small named things like a ribbon, a station or a prize often start from $50 to $500.

Do we have to take every sponsor who asks?

No. You see who the business is and what they want before you say yes, and you can decline anyone who does not suit your event.

We only run once a year. Is it worth it?

Yes. List each sponsorship for the dates it runs, and it comes down when the event is over. List it again next year in a couple of minutes.
