‘Icons Of Porsche’ At Dubai Design District

Returning this year for its second instalment to once again offer a meeting point for Porsche enthusiasts, the ‘Icons Of Porsche’ at Dubai Design District.

From 26 to 27 November, the safari-themed festival will celebrate Porsche’s rallying heritage, while hosting an exciting mix of other experiences. 

Most notably, on the 17,000 square metre venue, it will feature the biggest display of classic Porsches anywhere in the Middle East region.

Porsche Middle East and Africa FZE’s chief executive officer, Dr Manfred Bräunl, remarked, “Following the overwhelming response to last year’s festival, we are truly excited to announce that ‘Icons Of Porsche’ is back. The safari theme for this year’s event will deliver a lot of exciting moments and engaging experiences. Attendees can expect to see some famous Porsche vehicles from throughout our rich history, with pedigree and success off-road as well as on the race track. We are planning to deliver a calendar event that is not to be missed. It will be the ultimate platform to experience classic car nostalgia in connection with art, culture and the community.”

To elaborate, the festival will feature several celebrations of key milestones. For example, ‘20 years Of Porsche Cayenne’, ‘50 Years Of Porsche Design’ and ’70 Years Of Porsche Clubs’.

Then, alongside celebrating the past, the latest addition to Porsche’s model range will take centre stage during the festival. 

Receiving its regional premiere, the new model is well-positioned to become another icon amongst the adventure-driven Porsche communities of the Middle East and beyond. 

In addition, the festival will also offer real life and virtual driving experiences. Such as an Esports arena for attendees to test their racing simulator skills in a Porsche against other competitors.

Meanwhile, a special off-road course offers adventurous attendees a ride experience in Porsche Cayenne models.

Other than that, the festival will be split into five distinctive thematic zones for visitors to explore. This includes Adventure Camp, Community Village, Design Factory, Electric Field and Art Valley.

That said, registrations to attend this year’s two-day ‘Icons Of Porsche Festival’ free of charge are now open to the public at www.iconsofporsche.com.
