The Moses Mabhida Stadium, People's Park and Street Circuit "stages" are set for the show and fans will be glad to hear that the show promises to feature a combination of the anarchic stunts and challenges synonymous with the Top Gear TV show. The audacious displays of driving brilliance by the Top Gear Stunt Driving team will also return to thrill fans.
Out on the track, Top Gear Festival Durban's Street Circuit will play host to tons of motoring festivities including a 90-minute track show. There will be grudge matches and races - and another new daredevil record will be attempted this year.
The action doesn't stop on the track with exciting off-track interactive festival features including Motoring in Motion - a new element that will offer visitors the opportunity to test drive vehicles - as well as enjoying interactive live demos in the manufacturers' theatres. More interactive fun for Top Gear visitors includes the Top Gear Festival Stunt School and drifting rides, ensuring adrenaline junkies can get their heart-rates pumping.
And if that's not enough, petrol heads can head to the motoring exhibition packed with some of the most stylish, rare and expensive cars ever made. The exhibition includes the latest gadgets, luxury goods, car accessories and motoring technology.
Festival-goers can expect a day packed full of entertainment both on and off the track and this year's Top Gear Festival will be a true celebration of all things motoring.
