Phnom Penh revs up for Gumball 3000 spectacular on historic Sunday


The streets of Phnom Penh are pulsing with anticipation as Cambodia’s capital welcomes the iconic Gumball Rally 3000 – and a host of international stars.

Among the Gumball 3000 delegates were Ken Griffey, Patrice Evra, JImmy Graham, International Star and DJ MARTIN 2SMOOVE, ANDY PURNEL, BUN B, and CJ BEATZ. LAZARBEAM, ISHOWSPEED and LACHLAN as well.

The stars will bring a host of supercars to Phnom Penh, before departing on Monday (Sept 16) to drive to Siem Reap.

The 3,000-mile rally will feature approximately 130 high-performance vehicles and celebrities driving across multiple countries, with Cambodia being a key stop.

The highly anticipated event marks the rally’s 25th anniversary and is set to attract global celebrities, automotive enthusiasts and media attention to the Kingdom.

Founded in 1999, the Gumball 3000 is not only known for its iconic luxury cars and pop culture appeal but also for its charitable initiatives.

Cambodia, a key stop on this year’s route, will feature a series of public events in Phnom Penh and Siem Reap province, culminating in a Guinness World Record attempt for the largest gathering of supercars at Angkor Wat.

On August 9, Prime Minister Hun Manet met with Gumball 3000 founder Maximillion Cooper in a courtesy visit that underscored the significance of the event.

Cooper expressed his admiration for Cambodia’s natural beauty and historic landmarks, praising the country’s peace and stability.

“The prime minister reaffirmed Cambodia’s commitment to welcoming the rally and highlighted its potential economic benefits and tourism opportunities​,” according to Manet’s Telegram account.

Cambodia’s stop will see participants, including global stars like Patrice Evra, YouTubers LazarBeam, Lachlan and IShowSpeed, driving supercars such as the Rolls-Royce Cullinan and Lamborghini Huracán.
