CHANDLER, Ariz. – FuelFest is set for its inaugural and rescheduled date at Wild Horse Pass Motorsports Park on Saturday, Dec. 4, in Chandler, Ariz. Now in its third year, FuelFest blends the enthusiast’s passion for the automotive world with celebrities, live music, food, drinks and art. The show features more than 600 top custom, exotic, rare, and exclusive cars and trucks. There are car exhibitions, drag racing and drift exhibitions.
FuelFest will feature a massive live-action drift course that runs the entire length of the venue. Spectators can catch race cars drifting all day at FuelFest. The event will showcase precision driving skills in the FuelFest Drift Pit. See cars and trucks drift up close at several drift shows happening throughout the daylong event.
A portion of the events proceeds benefit Reach Out WorldWide (ROWW), the non-profit charity founded by Paul Walker and continued by his brother, Cody Walker. The organization was founded in 2010 by the late actor/producer after a massive earthquake devastated Haiti and Walker was inspired to organize a relief team that responded to the disaster. ROWW’s mission is to fill the gap between the availability of skilled resources in post-disaster situations. ROWW completed four deployments in 2020 and continues to operate where needed.
“We’re excited to bring FuelFest to the Valley and provide top notch entertainment,” said Cody. “We have a huge car showcase with the most exclusive and high performance, rare, and modified muscle cars, movie cars, hyper cars, supercars, exotics, imports and so much more. We will have the FuelFest Drift Pit and drag racing demos throughout the event. Phoenix has a diverse car community and this year will have a few surprises that we will continue to announce as the event gets closer. Get your tickets now and I’ll see you on December 4.”
FuelFest brings the passion of the automotive community to major cities across the globe, showcasing an eclectic collection of cars and music while creating an everlasting experience that leaves fans looking forward to the next event.
“We just wrapped our L.A. event to a sold-out crowd,” said Chris Lee, FuelFest co-founder. “We know car fans in Phoenix are ready for our jaw-dropping sponsor showcases, live over-the-top entertainment and incredible display of cars. FuelFest is ready to leave a lasting impression in the Valley.”
Gates open to the public from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Dec. 4. Event information, car registration and tickets can be found at www.FuelFest.com, as well as on social media channels, including Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.

About Reach Out WorldWide
Reach Out WorldWide (ROWW) was founded in 2010 by the late actor/producer, Paul Walker. After a massive earthquake devastated Haiti, Paul spontaneously organized a relief team that responded to the disaster. On the trip, Paul saw a gap between the availability of skilled resources and the requirement for such personnel in post-disaster situations. Upon returning from Haiti, Paul established ROWW with the purpose of fulfilling this unmet need. Since Paul’s passing, ROWW continues to be a platform for like-minded individuals to make a difference in other people’s lives. It started as an idea and has transformed into a culture equally benefiting the volunteers as much as the people they are assisting. It’s turning the “I generation” into a “goodwill generation.” It’s giving good people not just a voice but a chance to act.
