Automania is a completely different concept to the norm, we have taken all the bits that we like from car shows all around the world and have combined it to create what we believe is the premiere automotive event on offer in New Zealand.

Whether its Japanese sports cars, v8 muscle, hot rods, purpose built race cars, tyre frying smoke machines (drift cars) right the way through to classic and scratch built cars there is something on offer for everyone!

While the event is a large scale car show there is also a mountain of entertainment for the spectators and competitors to get involved in. The upcoming Automania 2014 will host some incredible attractions such as a live action arena featuring some of the country’s took drift drivers putting on an exhibition of their skills. The coveted ‘car in hell’ display will be sure to impress, last year the car was completely destroyed beyond all recognition!

Now we all love a good bite to eat.. As part of this years event we have introduced the ‘festival of food’ which will encompass many different cuisines from all around the world! Once again the strongman and workout zone is back with the famous ‘truck pull’ available for you to watch or if you are feeling strong you can also take part. New Zealand’s biggest bikini car wash is back, be sure to bring your car along for a wash!!

Live entertainment in the form of DJ’s, bands and performers will keep you wondering what is next.? The trade alley will showcase some of the best products and services available on offer both in the automotive field and beyond. Our good friends from NZ IPW will be putting on a show inside the events centre featuring some of the best wrestling that New Zealand has to offer! Also featuring in the very same ring will be a lived demonstration of the art of the 9 limbs (muai Thai kickboxing) the ultra sexy miss bikini Automania is back once again with all those lovely ladies strutting their stuff up on stage!

That said there is sure to be something for everyone to enjoy, best of all the entry fee for spectators is NOTHING. Competitors will know by now that there is a very very lucrative prize pool up for grabs, and once again the entry fees for the show will be kept to a minimum.

♫ Stanton Warriors (UK) ♫

Stanton Warriors are the breakbeat duo Dominic Butler and Mark Yardley.
They are aDJ and producer team. Originally from the West Country, the pair now play sets at nightclubs such asFabric and Ciros in the UK, and travel the globe with international work in Europe, North America, Asia and Australia. 

Their name was taken from a hexagonal shaped manhole cover, made by Stanton Ironworks, based in Ilkeston, Derbyshire which seemed fitting with their style of underground, cutting edge music. The name is also a reference to Stanton DJ products.

The Stanton Warriors' third mix album was released in the UK on 27 October 2008, entitled Stanton Session Vol. 3, which is their best seller to date, and received 5 out of 5 from iDJ. This was also released in a limited run, deluxe edition manhole cover tin pack.

The graffiti style artwork, (and their SW logo) seen on many of their releases and merchandise, is the work of several renowned graffiti artists, SheOne and Rough, the latter of which won a design award for the artwork on the Stanton Warrior's single, "Da Antidote".

The Stantons have been known to release free to download promotional DJ sets through their websites, where there is also live video footage of their gigs. Now based in West London, they run a successful record label (Punks) out of their recording studio.

Famous for their World Wide renowned “Stanton Sessions” the Stantons live act is something to Marvel smashing out a fusion of Classics to Currents, Old to New with flavours from their Albums raning from the Headz of State EP (1997) through to the lastest “The Warriors” Album.
