Porschefest: The Carolinas Region PCA announces its 14th Annual PorscheFest scheduled for Memorial Day Weekend hosted in and around beautiful Asheville, NC
Porschefest 2010 Returns to Asheville
May 28th, 29th and 30th, 2010
The Carolinas Region PCA announces its 14th Annual PorscheFest, sponsored by Deal MotorCars and German Motorwerks of Asheville. Once again the event is scheduled for Memorial Day Weekend, May 28, 29 and 30. For the second year in a row, this multi-event tradition will be hosted in and around beautiful Asheville, NC.
The essence of Porschefest is three competitive events: an Autocross, a Concours and a (fun) Rally, interwoven with hospitality and social time, wrapping up with an evening Awards Banquet.
Asheville, known as the Paris of the South is a perfect choice for the event. It’s compact downtown features a unique mix of Art Deco architecture, arts and crafts heritage, unique shopping and dining and unmatched people watching, all surrounded by the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains to the east and the Smoky Mountains to the west. Our headquarters hotel puts you right in the middle of all the action.
Please note that PorscheFest 2010 registration will be limited to 100 Porsches and 200 registrants. Last year was a quick sellout and we anticipate the same this year.

•Hotel Group Rate Cutoff Date - Wednesday, April 28th
