Detail Fest 2017 - dates and location

Examples:
Minimum fuel level allowance for entrance/egress;
no battery; grounding strap; $$-amount to "rent"
a space; etc.

Too much expense involved vs. just driving
to an outdoor venue for most of us.

Oh; I see.
 
Our big indoor shows require batteries to be disconnected and gas caps to be locked, taped over or fuel tank drained. The rules are different every where. There will probably not be too many overburden rules to prohibit having a good car show. I am scheduled to be off work that month so I should be there.
 
To answer your questions we have not decided if the car show will be inside or outside but we have discussed with them having cars inside and it is not an issue for them. They have had several car auctions at this venue and are not new to this and as long as we are not firing up the cars and killing everyone with carbon monoxide fumes they are happy to have us there. But again please give us some time to work out the rest of the details, we wanted everyone to know the dates and venue first so they can get it on their calendar. We will be working hard to iron out the rest of the details in the coming weeks. One thing I can promise is DF 2017 will be amazing, so hold tight for details!
 
Making plans for this as we speak. Talk about huge step, awesome to see AG growing!

Rob D may be off the hook this year. I tell ya those meatballs are INSANELY GOOD!

Understood.
Won't be any noticeable CO fumes...

Hey what's with all the Next Level sayings going around, That's my job!

And as far it being in a center that is pretty awesome this makes me excited in alot of ways. That means detail fest is growing and growing every year, and that is excellent for our industry.

As far as it being inside is also good, this year I was bummed out about the last day when it rained. With it being inside we don't have to worry about weather. (I still had the time of my life at detail fest)

I'm super excited. Is there plans to have even more vendors and more booths ?

How much bigger will it be than the original detail fest ?

Original Detail Fest had less than 25 people at it and that included employees! We will have more vendors this year, space will not restrict us and I expect you will see bigger booths from a lot of vendors as well.

I've never been to detail fest and always been planning to go. It seems as if the new location will add an awesome flavor to the mix of the event but somehow a couple of things would get lost. Those things being:

1. being able to take a tour of AG's facilities which of course includes the garage where all the detailing magic has been happening for so long

I was going to suggest maybe a shuttle bus from the convention center for Autogeek tours, but I just mapped it and it is over a half-hour away.

Perhaps there will be some other arrangements, that's got to be one of the highlights of the visit, but perhaps that's the price of progress.
 
Plans are going smoothly and we are getting excited for DF 2017!

Seeing the AG facilities is a must for me. I just couldn't imagine being in the same town and not stopping by for a tour.

Headquarters is in Stuart and show will be in West Palm but you are welcome to set up a time to come up and I will give you a tour.
 
Any idea when hotel options will be announced? I would like to try to go next year if I can - haven't been in years.
